From Dragging to Wagging!


Is Your Dog Slowing Down? You're Not Alone.

By age 8, 80% of dogs develop arthritis—leading to stiffness, pain, and difficulty with everyday activities. If your dog is struggling to jump on the bed, slowing down on walks, or not enjoying their favorite activities anymore, it can be heartbreaking.

And short vet visits often leave you with more questions than answers.

I Understand—Because I’ve Been There Too.

As both a veterinarian and a devoted dog mom, I know how stressful it is to watch your dog slow down. When I adopted my senior dog, Lenny, even with my medical background, I felt overwhelmed navigating his arthritis care.

I created From Dragging to Wagging so you don’t have to go through that uncertainty alone. You’ll have a clear, supportive roadmap to help you navigate all the options that are available for your dog.
