It’s officially Dog Mom Summer, and Kimberly and Erin are catching up on senior dogs, pet food industry news, raw feeding, and the questionable conversations happening online.
They begin with updates on their senior dogs and share encouraging news about KetoPet Naturals’ lawsuit against Hill’s regarding allegations surrounding the canine DCM controversy. Kimberly also recounts a strange interaction with a veterinarian on social media who questioned how she chooses to feed her dogs.
The conversation then turns to Hill’s upcoming therapeutic “fresh food” diet, which will reportedly only be available through veterinary recommendations. Is this simply another option for pet parents, or are corporations and veterinary professionals continuing to shape the narrative around what dogs should eat?
It may be time to pull out the tin foil hats.
Kimberly and Erin also discuss the upcoming Raw Feeding Awards outside the United States, explore what researchers from the Dog Aging Project are learning about the canine microbiome, and wrap up the episode with TV Talk.

What does "regenerative agriculture" actually mean, and why should pet parents care?
In this episode, we sit down with the team behind Ramstead Ranch to explore the connection between soil health, nutrient-dense food, sustainable farming, and the health of both people and pets.
We discuss the origin story of Ramstead Ranch, how 240 acres were transformed through regenerative farming practices, and why healthy soil may be one of the most important factors in producing healthier food. You'll learn how regenerative agriculture differs from factory farming and conventional "Big Ag," what nutrient differences may exist between foods raised in healthy ecosystems, and why you can't out-supplement poor-quality food produced from depleted land.
We also dive into practical advice for becoming a more informed consumer, navigating confusing marketing claims, feeding nutrient-dense foods on a budget, and understanding how Ramstead Ranch expanded into products for dogs. Along the way, we share stories from ranch life, lessons learned from livestock guardian dogs, and resources for anyone interested in learning more about regenerative agriculture.

In this episode of The Alternative Dog Moms Podcast, we dive into some of the hottest conversations happening in the fresh feeding community.
We kick things off by discussing whether a raw food company is getting a fair shake on Reddit, along with a side conversation that confirms why neither of us would survive a career in customer service (0:55).
Next, we tackle the mushroom advertisement that claims a specific product can shrink lipomas in dogs. The ad seems to be making the rounds again, so we share our thoughts on what pet parents should know before getting their hopes up (27:48).
Then we discuss a thoughtful post from Holistic Canine that offers a balanced perspective on what "balance" actually means when feeding dogs. Is every meal supposed to be perfectly balanced? Can balance happen over time? We share our take on this often misunderstood topic (40:56).
Of course, we also provide updates on our dogs, what's working, what we're trying, and what's happening in our homes (55:34).
And finally, we wrap things up with TV talk, random tangents, and the usual conversations that somehow take on a life of their own (1:08:02).

What if everything you’ve been told about fiber, probiotics, and gut health in dogs is only part of the story?
In this episode of The Alternative Dog Moms Podcast, we sit down with canine nutrition researcher and author Dr. Conor Brady to break down the difference between meat fiber and plant fiber and why it matters more than most dog parents realize.
We explore what “fiber” really means in a dog’s diet and how meat-based fiber (like connective tissue, cartilage, fur, and feathers) interacts with the gut microbiome differently than plant fiber. From there, we dive into probiotics, pathogens, and gut bacteria, including why Dr. Brady questions the need for routine probiotic supplementation.
We also tackle the big question: are dogs carnivores or omnivores? Along with a few entertaining detours, this conversation challenges common feeding beliefs and encourages a more nuanced view of canine nutrition.

It’s our annual Thanksgiving Happy Hour on The Alternative Dog Moms! Erin and Kimberly pour a glass (or two) of Mamamango wine and go completely off-script — as friends do. Once a year, we put structure aside and let the conversation wander wherever our dog-mom brains take it.
This episode is full of laughs, real talk, and those “wait… how did we get here?” moments that only happen with your closest friends. And honestly? That’s the magic. It’s also wild to think that we’re wrapping up Season 4 of the podcast — and Season 5 is just around the corner.
In this cozy, slightly chaotic holiday hangout, we talk about:
• Life updates and dog mom confessions
• The random topics that come to mind when wine is poured
• What we’re grateful for this year
• Favorite moments from past seasons
• Excitement for what’s coming in Season 5
If you love relaxed, real-life dog mom energy, this is the perfect episode to unwind with — glass of Mamamango optional, but highly recommended.

In this episode of The Alternative Dog Moms, Erin and Kimberly sit down with the founders of Woof Creek Pet Care to explore how a pandemic slowdown turned into an unexpected opportunity — and ultimately sparked the creation of their natural, high-quality supplement line for dogs.
When COVID brought their thriving pet-sitting business to a halt, they didn’t fade into the background. Instead, they leaned into research, healing, and wellness - for dogs. What started as a pause became a purpose: developing clean, effective, small-batch supplements to support allergies, immunity, gut health, inflammation, and overall vitality in dogs.
We talk about:
• How Woof Creek transformed a challenging moment into a mission to help dogs
• Why sourcing, purity, and transparency matter in supplements
• Their approach to supporting gut health, allergies, inflammation & detox pathways
• How their formulas are helping dogs feel better, age better, and thrive
This episode is equal parts inspiration and education, especially for dog parents who want to understand what goes into a trustworthy supplement — and how the right ingredients can make a real difference.

In this episode of The Alternative Dog Moms, Erin and Kimberly chat with Carter Easler of MycoDog about one of their favorite topics: functional mushrooms and how they support senior dogs. Carter breaks down the science, tradition, and practical applications of mushrooms for aging pups — from brain health and mobility to immunity and long-term vitality.
We talk about the unique challenges senior dogs face and how mushroom blends can help support their bodies in a gentle, natural, evidence-informed way. Carter also shares the story behind MycoDog, why quality and sourcing matter, and how specific mushroom combinations can target the needs of older dogs.
In this episode, we explore:
• The most effective functional mushrooms for senior dogs
• How mushrooms support cognition, mobility, immunity & inflammation
• Why extraction methods and sourcing make a difference
• Key ingredients in MycoDog formulas like Clarity
• How pet parents can safely introduce mushrooms into their dog’s routine
If you have a senior dog, a dog recovering from illness, or you’re simply curious about holistic longevity support, this conversation offers a wealth of insight and practical tips.
