Apparently Leia Is Vintage Now Hello. Kero here. We need to discuss Leia. Leia is a black-and-tan Shiba Inu and, according to the humans, she is a senior dog. I prefer the term vintage. Leia has reached the stage of life where nobody questions her decisions anymore. Want to sleep until noon? “She’s old. Let her sleep.” Don’t want to go outside? “She’s old. Don’t make her.” Demand a snack immediately after eating a snack? “Awwww, she’s old.” Interesting. I tried this. Apparent

Animal communication is one of those subjects that sparks curiosity, skepticism, excitement, eye-rolls, and occasionally heated Facebook debates between complete strangers who should probably be outside touching grass. Whether you're deeply interested in it or simply wondering what all the fuss is about, understanding what animal communication actually is, and what it isn't, can help you decide if it's something worth exploring. So, What Is Animal Communication? Animal commun

A deeply inconvenient truth for every horse owner who has spent $400 on supplements while their horse lunges for roadside weeds like a Victorian child starving through winter. Horse ownership is an extraordinary experience because it constantly reminds you that no matter how much money, education, or planning you invest…your horse still operates like a giant raccoon with anxiety. You buy premium hay. Your horse eats dandelions. You carefully research nutritional balancing. Yo

Ticks. Nature’s tiny little vampires with the confidence of a tax auditor. They wait in grass like creepy hitchhikers whose entire life goal is to attach themselves to your dog and ruin everyone’s weekend. Humanity invented space travel, and somehow we still have to pull bean-shaped parasites off golden retrievers. Outstanding species, really. The good news is that there are natural options that may help reduce tick attraction and support prevention. The important sentence no

(or: how to accidentally turn your dog into a wellness experiment) 1. “It’s natural, so it’s safe” This is the greatest lie ever sold, right after “he’s just playing” while your dog drags someone across a field. Plants are not gentle little forest fairies. They are chemical factories designed to survive being eaten. Some are helpful. Some are… less helpful. Chamomile → calming, lovely, everyone relaxes Garlic → tiny amounts sometimes used carefully, larger amounts = bad decis

First, a quick reality check. Horses do not: Read wellness blogs Believe in chakras Care about your certification level They care about food, safety, herd dynamics, and whether that plastic bag is plotting murder. So where does Reiki fit into this? ✨ What Even Is Reiki? Reiki is an energy-based healing practice developed by Mikao Usui in early 20th-century Japan. The idea is simple: practitioners channel universal life energy through their hands to promote relaxation and heal

Horses are majestic. Athletic. Emotional. Also deeply committed to injuring themselves on completely flat ground. Their immune systems work overtime. Stress from hauling, showing, weather changes, training, barn drama, that one gelding who screams at passing leaves. All of it adds up. Medicinal mushrooms are adaptogens. Which is a fancy way of saying they help the body adapt to stress instead of combusting like your group chat after someone feeds alfalfa without asking. They

Let’s face it. Dogs are weird. They eat socks like it’s a five-star buffet. They bark at literally nothing. And they go absolutely feral when a squirrel even thinks about stepping into the yard. But beneath the tail wags and tennis ball obsessions, our beloved furballs deal with a lot—anxiety, aging joints, sleepless nights spent staring at the ceiling fan like it owes them money. And that’s where CBN comes in. Yes, CBN. Not CBD. Not THC. Not the CBC news network your grand

Hey there, fellow horse whisperer (or at least horse mumbler when they ignore you in the paddock). We all know horses are majestic, powerful, and… occasionally dramatic drama queens who spook at plastic bags like they’re haunted. And just like us, they can benefit from a little herbal TLC. So saddle up, because we’re going on a trail ride through the herbal garden — with a dose of humor, a sprinkle of sass, and zero snake oil. Here are the top herbs your horse wants you to k
