Episode Details

Nothing about your life with your dog changed. Then you scrolled past someone else's version of it, and suddenly yours didn't feel like enough.

Perfect bowls, elaborate enrichment, matching gear, picture-ready spaces. None of it means your dog has a better life, but seeing enough of it can make you question things you were perfectly happy with before.

You'll hear:

• How ordinary dog care quietly became something we're expected to perform
• Why Em still catches herself comparing even when she knows better
• The question that matters more than whether your life with your dog looks like anyone else's

Press play if you've ever looked at someone else's dog life and wondered if you should be doing more.
