Well at 2am trying to make the 5thor 6thattempt to put his 11-year old butt on the bed – not so cute.)  And yet you want the best for your dog.

And if we’ve got them we love them. BUT we’ve also got hormones. And we need to get to hormone heaven from the hormone hell bad night’s sleep cost us.  Questions I asked Dr. Ruth in this episode: What reasons are there for dogs/cats not sleeping well? How can we help pets sleep better so that we can? Elimination diet, keto, freeze dried protein in a purchased one + real veggies Melatonin 1.5 mg – 3 mg (small to large size pets) Fatty acids Probiotic Are there things to avoid that might be recommended by others? Unhealthy options or those with negative side affects? Is there an age or stage in a pet’s life when it becomes more likely they’ll have nighttime sleep issues? Is there a way to prepare pets for better sleep habits? (similar to adults!)
