Others keep changing it long after they're gone. If your dog changed more than your daily routine, this is for you. The Dog Who Asked for More® started because one dog kept struggling with his energy and his behavior no matter how much training or play I threw at it, and I couldn't find a single person who could tell me why. So I became the person I was looking for. This show is for anyone whose dog changed their life in ways they're still figuring out. The one doing midnight research on dog food and behavior and dog anxiety and still not sure they're getting it right. The one living with a reactive dog or anxious dog and quietly carrying the mental math that comes with it. The parking lot calculations, the exit routes, the anticipation before the walk even starts. The one whose dog became part of every decision, every routine, every version of what comes next. The one in the slow goodbye with a senior dog, watching every good day and doing the math. The one who can't fully explain to people outside this world what their dog actually means to them. I'm Em.

A skipped meal here. Weird digestion there. A day where your dog just feels a little “off.” Not because one skipped meal feels like an emergency. But because deep down, you know something feels different — even if you can’t fully explain why yet. In this episode of The Dog Who Asked For More , Em talks about the subtle signs dog parents often brush off at first: inconsistent eating, random digestive issues, behavior shifts, low appetite, or the quiet feeling that your dog just hasn’t seemed like themselves lately. Because sometimes food problems don’t show up loudly. Sometimes they show up in patterns you keep trying to explain away. Through stories about Fitz and Toby, Em shares how storage mite sensitivities, pancreatitis, and food-related discomfort showed up completely differently in each dog — and why so many issues get mistaken for “pickiness” or random behavior changes before people realize what’s actually happening underneath. You’ll learn: Why food-related issues in dogs often start with subtle behavior changes instead of obvious symptoms How to recognize the difference between a picky dog and a dog who doesn’t feel good eating Why paying attention to patterns matters more than waiting for something to become a “big enough” problem If you’ve been second guessing yourself because your dog seems off but you can’t explain why, this episode will help you trust what you’re noticing — and understand what your dog may be trying to tell you.
