I promised you a post… and here it is. I think this is quite useful even if you’re not In Dubai so do take a look!

There’s a lot being thrown around right now… advice, opinions, “quick fixes” for anxious dogs in Dubai.

And it breaks my heart to see calming 💊 medication and things like gabapentin being recommended as the first option. Why??

What baffles me is that people are opting for medication without trying anything else and to make matters worse they’re trusting random recommendations from random people on the Internet!!

Come on people; OUR DOGS DESERVE BETTER!!!

If you’re in Dubai, you know our pets need us more than ever. When we know better, we do better.

So take a moment and actually read through this.

Because anxiety isn’t something you patch over with medication from your vet!

It’s something you support with care, patience, and intention.

This is exactly how I’m supporting my own dogs right now.

Just intentional nervous system support that actually makes a difference. And yes — they’re sleeping through the alerts in Dubai!

I think that’s pretty amazing. Don’t you? 💃💃💃

Start small. Stay consistent. Support them properly.

✨Save this so you can come back when you need it.
✨ Share this with another Dubai dog parent feeling the same way.

Sending you all love 💕

P.S. And if your “friendly” neighbour complains about barking… ADVOCATE for your dog. They deserve that too and much more

I’m seeing a rise in people (and businesses) in Dubai suddenly claiming to be “herbalists”…thanks to ChatGPT, 🤮quick courses, and Google searches.

So if you’re in the UAE - listen up!!

Here’s what most businesses won’t tell you before pushing slippery elm 👇

Yes while it soothes the gut and it can help with diarrhea, constipation etc

Because it works by coating the gut lining.

It can interfere with nutrient absorption and even impact how medications are absorbed if used incorrectly.

‼️‼️‼️‼️ Read the above statement again ‼️‼️‼️

And yet?

It’s being marketed like a daily essential.
A “must-have.”A magic fix you can’t live without. 🤦🏾‍♀️

That’s the part I have a problem with.

Because when you rely on something like slippery elm long-term without asking why your dog is struggling in the first place…you stay stuck in a cycle.

Managing symptoms.
Not resolving them.

And no one selling you the product is going to lead with that, right?

So stop and ask yourself:
Why is this being recommended? # #
What’s the root cause here?
And do I actually need this or am I being sold a quick fix?

Slippery elm has a place. I use it too.
But intentionally.Short-term. With a plan.

Not as a forever herb.

So when your dog experiences gut issues - remember Your dog’s body is communicating. So ….Start listening.

And if you don’t believe me or you don’t like what I’m saying… let the science speak for itself do your research!

Gucho said “if I can’t go in… I’ll dig my way there”

You guys already know how we feel about dog parks… 🫠 and this one gives me the ick!

They should just basically rebrand it into a kids park 🙄 and don’t even get me started on the artificial grass… it stinks 🤢

We’ve had some really good times when it was a proper dog park.

This version? Not it.

So for now… banned ❌ banned ❌

Spoiling your dogs… let’s be honest, it’s something we all love to do, right 🙌

But for me, it’s never just about “treats.”
It’s about choice, variety, and intention.✨

Letting them choose.
Rotating what they get.
Making those small, everyday moments feel enriching and exciting.

I love doing that!

One day, when I look back, I want to feel it deeply, I want to be able to say that I gave them the best life I possibly could.

A life full of variety, freedom, and thoughtful care.

And the beautiful part?
These small, intentional habits don’t stay small.

You see it outside.
In the way they naturally stay close.
In how they choose me: without force, without “training.”

I’ve never practiced recall in the traditional sense…
but they value my presence, because of how we show up together every single day.

It’s all connected. Always has been this way. It’s hard to explain this connection to people. So I stopped because some things are just better this way.

I get it, buying 100% organic isn’t always realistic …

Remember, it’s not about doing everything… it’s about being intentional.

You don’t need to spend more and more … you just need to spend smarter. Shop intentionally.

The EWG have published the 2026 Dirty Dozen & Clean 15 and this is where you prioritize!! Use this to understand:

✨ Where organic matters most (Dirty Dozen)
✨ Where you can save your money (Clean 15)

So instead of feeling overwhelmed at the grocery store…walk in with a plan! You’re welcome 😊

Save this for your next shop 🛒

Our pets aren’t separate from us… their health mirrors ours more than we realize ✨

The way we nourish ourselves, manage stress, and live our daily lives directly impacts them too.

From the energy we carry to the choices we make around food and environment …. it’s all connected.

This journey has made me even more intentional about how I show up, as a human.

And I’m so proud to share that before this year is over, I’ll officially have my diploma as a Health Coach with

When I started my page- I have zero intention of pursuing a diploma in the human space. I created that account to simply share how I nourish myself - raw, real and authentic.

But the universe had other plans for me… and here I am today once again what started with the dogs is evolving into something bigger than me and I am embracing every second of this beautiful journey.

Because true wellness isn’t just for our pets… it starts with us, right?

Energy is contagious. ⚡

Before you start complaining or spreading fear in public groups, think about the people around you who will absorb it.

I get it ; we all have moments, and maybe venting is best saved for your private family chats. But when you’re part of a larger community? Let’s be mindful.

Perspective matters.
Gratitude matters.

And sometimes, just sometimes, choosing to see the good around you is the best way to protect your energy.

I low-key want to visit the UK just to see why everyone’s rushing back there 👀👀 and announcing it too! 🤦🏾‍♀️

Again, I know this might be unpopular because I always choose to see the best in everything. This attitude has sometimes made me an easy target because I tend to trust and believe the best in people and situations.

But this time? I’m choosing to believe the best in the moment, the energy around me, and the little joys that are still here.

Can we just pause for a second… I’m literally having breakfast, coffee in hand ☕, walking with three dogs with big feelings, (not me, but the dogs )🐾, and I can’t even believe it’s real.

No prongs. 👋
No 1,000 treats.
These dogs get to be dogs, in a way that keeps them safe, happy, and connected to me.

No magic tricks, justyears of showing up, daily intentional habits, and really listening to each other.

This is what a loving connection looks like.

One day, when I look back, I want to be able to say my dogs had the happiest life ever.

Yes, rewards have their place, but connection goes beyond treats.

With all due respect to trainers, connection isn’t something they can teach you, it is something you build daily as a pet parent.

For too long I’ve given credit to others for what I’ve built with my dogs.

Well, today I’m giving myself and all dog parents out there some credit. 🙌

Give yourself grace. Own your wins.

I took this video yesterday…A few minutes later? We got completely drenched and Raven did not forgive me! Lady boss is a sunshine ☀️ girl!

I know the rain in Dubai feels like a gift. Cooler weather, softer ground, a break from the heat… but running your dog in the rain isn’t always as harmless as it seems.

‼️ if your plan is to go running today - go by yourself and leave your dog at home ‼️

Let me explain;

When surfaces are wet and slippery, your dog’s body has to constantly compensate to stay stable. That means:
– altered gait patterns
– increased muscle tension
– more load placed on joints

Over time, this creates micro-strain on ligaments and joint structures even if your dog doesn’t slip.

Cold + wet conditions can also impact joint physiology.

Synovial fluid (the fluid that lubricates joints) becomes slightly less efficient in colder conditions, and muscles tend to tighten.

Take note:
Less mobility + more tension = higher risk of stiffness and injury.

And if your dog does slip, even slightly?

That sudden instability can lead to small compensations that show up later as limping, soreness, or chronic issues.

This doesn’t mean no rain walks — it just means be mindful:
Slow it down.
Avoid high-speed runs.
Choose stable surfaces.
Let them sniff instead of sprint.

Because sometimes what feels good for us… isn’t always what’s best for them.

I’ve been up since 3:30am so I’m a little tired 😅 but I wanted to hop on here and share this because I’ve been seeing so many of you struggling with anxiety.

I’ll do a full carousel with my top tips but here’s my realistic routine:

This isn’t about perfect routines or fancy solutions.
This is about what actually works in real life.

What I personally reach for:

✔️ Bach flower remedies: gentle, easy, underrated but you have to be consistent.
✔️ L-theanine : absolutely love 💕 this one & it’s great for taking the edge off (best given before the storm)
✔️ Enrichment: works great for dogs like Gucho and Summer who love food.
✔️ Skullcap, valerian root & passionflower are proper nervous system support. I use herbal teas and the supplements too.

What I don’t rely on:

✖️ Ashwagandha - while it’s recommended by most, I just haven’t seen it make a real difference here.

✖️Stacking herbs 🌿 sometimes less is more.

Every dog is different.
What works for one won’t always work for another and that’s okay.

And if your dog won’t take food during a storm?

Don’t force it. Some dogs (like Raven) just won’t eat so meet them where they’re at.

I’ll break it all down properly in the next post ⛈️

It’s wild how perception works…
especially here in Dubai,
where desert dogs / strays are judged and sentenced so quickly.

They must be aggressive
They growl
They are so big
They look so scary

Behind the size, the look, the assumptions…there’s just a dog who loves deeply and feels everything.

And if you asked me?
I’d choose the “scary” dog… every single time
