You may have wondered if dog bones are actually good for dogs. For decades, we've saved a doggie bag with that t-bone for our dog, but is that healthy and safe? In this episode, we talk about safe dog bones and alternatives to give your dog something good to chew on.
Remember: it's always important to monitor your dogs when they are chewing! We had a choking incident with Finlay many years ago and nearly lost him. Also, please check with your vet if you have further questions or if your dog has special dietary needs.

Why Do Frenchies Make Weird Noises | Issues Facing Flat-Faced Dog Breeds: A Dog Mom's Story
04 Apr 2023
00:54:16
Flat-faced, or brachycephalic, dog breeds face challenges that go beyond simply having a harder time staying cool in hot weather. Breeds like Frenchies, English Bulldogs, Pugs, and others, often struggle to breathe daily due to breeding for more wrinkles or a certain look that is appealing to consumers. Did you know that many of these breeds have malformed noses or palates that make it very difficult for them to live without pain? With the rise in popularity of these breeds, especially French Bulldogs, we want people to understand what they may be faced with when adding one of these breeds to their family. If you have experience with a brachycephalic dog breed, please share your experience in the comments!

Meet the Staffordshire Bull Terrier!
07 Feb 2023
00:13:51
The Staffordshire Bull Terrier is a breed of terriers from England and is one of several bull terrier breeds. While the origins of this breed come from the gambling world of dog fighting, this breed was carefully bred over the years to be a sweet, loyal, fun-loving, family dog. As you can see from this video, Peaches is a sweet, friendly, and very happy dog. It's important to note that just because a dog looks a certain way, this does not mean it's going to act a certain way. All dogs should be judged by their behaviors and not physical characteristics...kind of like what we should be doing with each other as well!

Rare Designer Dogs - What You Need To Know
24 Aug 2021
00:20:33
A good breeder will breed to a breed standard which includes the dog's color and size. These days, dogs come in lots of rare colors and patterns, but is a rare color dog a good choice? When researching dog breeds, you'll want to be sure to note what colors are standard for that breed as a reputable breeder is not going to breed for rare colors or patterns. A good breeder will also not purposely breed down in size and many dogs that come in a "teacup" size can have health issues.
It is always best to do your research, find a rescue or reputable breeder, and never ever buy from a pet store or online breeder who will ship a dog to you.

How to Help Your Dog Live Longer
06 Jul 2023
00:18:46
We often get asked how we were able to get our dogs to the ages of 17.5 and 15 years old. While we can't be entirely sure, we've compiled a list of things we think help contributed to their long lives. Remember, we are not veterinarians so this is not to be used as medical advice, just things we think helped our dogs remain active and healthy well into their senior years.
In this episode of Dog Nerd Show, we give you ten things you can do to exercise your dog's mind. Mental stimulation is so important for your dog. If you have a breed that was created to do work (which many breeds were), you are definitely going to want to tune in to find out how you can help your dog release some of that energy by working his or her mind.
What would you add to this list? Let us know!
