    Small Business Love & Drama

    Everyone thinks they have the cutest dog and there are many model opportunities on Dog IG, especially through small businesses. We are sharing the good and the bad in this episode about our experiences working with small businesses... grab your popcorn! The list of good things goes on: above and beyond customer service, handmade + personal, eco-friendly + sustainable practices, being appreciated, and so much more. Then there's the DRAMA - (ok that's exaggerated, just a few negative experiences) We are sharing our thoughts on ambassador programs, perks, things we like, things we don't like, etc! We love small businesses, and they truly deserve all the support in the world! Here is your gentle reminder to show small businesses some grace, and don't forget, they're usually a one-person show. They always go above and beyond... sending complimentary stickers, treats, and sometimes extra product to show their appreciation which they absolutely do not have to do! To them, your order & business means the world. To Amazon, your order is just a number. Shop small! ⸻⸻⸻ Stay connected - follow us!

    What is Actually Wrong with You?! #UnpopularOpinions

    In this episode, we're just dipping our toes into some of our unpopular opinions. We had to keep things fun and light-hearted because we're not quite ready for our friendship to end yet... though it was close with the cupcakes and chili! From trivial opinions on food to our opinions on weddings, PDA, and small businesses... we have quite a range of things to talk about. All opinions are welcome - even if they're wrong (; ⸻⸻⸻ Stay connected - follow us!

    Dog Mom Struggles... What Did We Get Ourselves Into?!

    Do you find yourself karate chopping dog hair that's floating around your boiling bowl of pasta? Constantly leaving the house looking like a thrift store sasquatch because your covered in dog hair? Or fighting the urge to blow all of your money on every dog treat, bandana, or leash that you see? On a more serious note... remembering to take care of your needs too and balancing time between dogs if you're a multiple dog owner is such a challenge. Whatever you are struggling with, whether it be something that seems trivial or substantial... we promise that you are not alone. Owning a dog can seem like it should be all sunshine and rainbows, especially on social media, but it's not for most dog owners beneath the surface. The dog mom struggles are REAL, so let's talk about it! Thanks for listening!

    Adulthood: We Have No Idea What We're Doing Tbh -- Part 2

    PART 2 Cheese grating your feet? Working through childhood trauma? Selling a kidney for a mattress? Devolving friendships? We didn't sign up for this! In this episode, we are dipping our toes into the struggles of adulthood. From silly adulthood struggles like adult purchases and feet problems to the more intense struggles like trying to make friends in our mid-late 20's and how our childhood trauma still affects us to this day... nothing is off limits. We go through a list of 10-15 things that people mentioned they struggle with in a BuzzFeed article and share our personal experiences with them. Adulthood isn't something any of us ask for. Most of it is spent pretending we know what we're doing even though we barely remember what we ate for breakfast this morning. You're going to need to grab a snack and drink for this one... or listen on your long commute to work, while you clean the house, or while you grocery shop - ya know... adulting things!

    When Lack of Self Control Meets Four Paws

    Unbeknownst to most, we ironically have very similar stories as to how we ended up with Rye and Luna. We both lack self-control and will pack up our things immediately to go on a cross country trip to get a dog. Our journeys to get Rye and Luna were quite eventful to say the least! From a runaway dog, to almost getting bit, to struggling with bonds... it was a wild ride, but one that was well worth it and one we felt was worth sharing. Disclaimer: Would not recommend ignoring the potential consequences of your actions and acting impulsively by traveling cross country to snatch up a dog... but you do you. We can't say we wouldn't do the same! Thanks for listening!

    Crazy Instagram Dog Moms

    Dog moms are CRAZY. Crazy supportive. Crazy inspiring. Crazy obsessed with our dogs. Maybe a little toxic sometimes? This episode, we are sharing the good, the bad, and the ugly of the Dog IG Community. Katelyn and Elice are both so glad to have found such an amazing community of like-minded people and it has truly changed our lives and our dog's lives for the better. We would absolutely not be the dog moms we are today without it! However, like everything in life, Dog IG also has its downsides. We share about the lessons we've learned, how we feel about copying content, the trolls we've faced, and our original @'s... Brazilian Butt Lift? Bad Mutt? Excuse me... what? This is our most chaotic episode yet, so grab a drink and snack because you're going to need one for this episode! Thanks for listening!

    New Year, New Me... or the Same Old Story?

    Do you really need that new collar when you have 14 already sitting in a bin? When was the last time you taught your dog a new trick? How long has it been since you've done something for YOU?! We have some embarrassing lows to share this week that you don't want to miss! Then we dive into our goals and discuss our very different approaches to new year's resolutions and goals in general. Elice prefers month-to-month goal setting, while Katelyn tends to jump on the new year, new me bandwagon... but has she ever succeeded? If you struggle with the new year, new me trend, we share some great accountability tips in this episode that will help set yourself up for success! Thanks for listening!
