The Dog Who Asked for More: Training, Enrichment & Nutrition Secrets for a Calmer Life with Dogs

Why Your Dog’s “Bad Behavior” Might Be a Nutrition Problem


Listen Later

Are you feeding your dog premium kibble and still seeing health issues?


In this episode of The Dog Who Asked for More, I share the story of how “high-end” dog food made my reactive dog Toby sick for months—and the simple nutrition shifts that finally turned things around. If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed by food choices, ingredients, or confusing labels, you’re not alone—and you’re not failing.


In this episode:

  • Learn the hidden dangers of common dog food marketing terms like “meal,” “natural flavor,” and seed oils

  • Discover why your dog’s gut health may be the key to solving behavior and inflammation issues

  • Get a doable, non-overwhelming bowl boost you can try this week to improve your dog’s nutrition.


Press play to uncover the truth behind the label—and how one nutrition shift helped Toby finally heal from the inside out.
