The Dog Who Asked for More is a podcast and community built for people who love their dogs deeply — especially when reactivity, anxiety, big feelings, food confusion, or burnout enter the picture.
This isn’t about perfect dogs or polished advice.
It’s about real life, real stories, and learning how to recognize what dogs are actually asking for.
Listening is always free.
If this work has supported you, there are meaningful ways to help it grow — by listening, sharing, or investing in the mission.
Listen from anywhere. Join the community. Support the work in whatever way feels aligned
Not everyone can donate — and that’s okay. These small actions genuinely help this work reach more overwhelmed dog parents who need it.
Choose what feels easy for you:
Reviews help more dog parents find the show when they’re searching for support.
Send a favorite episode to someone who might feel seen by it.

I love seeing where you listen from — and sharing your dogs and stories.
Get new episodes, resources, and updates without spam or pressure.
A free, judgment-free Slack space to ask questions and connect with people who truly get it.
The Wall of Thanks is a dedicated tribute honoring the dogs who shaped us — the ones who challenged us, changed us, and asked us to grow.
By reserving a spot, your dog will be featured on a permanent page of this website for as long as The Dog Who Asked for More exists.
This isn’t just a name on a list.
It’s a legacy placement.
A public thank you.
A way to say: my dog mattered.
• Your dog’s photo
• Their name
• A short tribute or message
• Lifetime placement on the Wall of Thanks page
• Optional dedication for a dog who has passed
Every contribution directly supports:
• The RV tour and mobile podcast studio
• Free educational resources
• Community support spaces
• Honest conversations about behavior, food, grief, burnout, and big feelings
Your dog becomes part of the story we’re building — one that honors sensitive dogs, misunderstood dogs, and the humans who chose to show up for them.
This mission began because of Toby and Fitz.
It continues because of dogs like yours.
Wall placements are limited to preserve space and visibility.

Small actions compound.
They matter more than you think.

We’re actively building a mobile podcast studio — an RV-based space for real, unfiltered conversations about reactive dogs, nutrition struggles, burnout, grief, and the parts of dog ownership most spaces avoid.
This tour will bring honest, judgment-free conversations directly into communities, rescues, and real-life spaces across the count
We’re actively building a mobile podcast studio — an RV-based space for real, unfiltered conversations about reactive dogs, nutrition struggles, burnout, grief, and the parts of dog ownership most spaces avoid.
This tour will bring honest, judgment-free conversations directly into communities, rescues, and real-life spaces across the country.
The build is already in motion.
Now we’re funding the next phase.
If you believe these conversations matter beyond a screen, you can help bring the RV to life.
Fuel the RV Tour and help bring real conversations nationwide.

Quick + easy, one-time support
This mission is growing — intentionally.
The next phase is the RV mobile podcast studio: a traveling space for real conversations with dog parents, rescues, trainers, and communities across the country.
This isn’t symbolic.
It’s infrastructure.
Your support directly funds:
• The RV studio buildout and recording equipment
• Travel to rescues and communities that need accessible education
• Production and publishing of free podcast episodes
• Professional editing, hosting, and platform distribution
• Development of practical, real-world educational resources
This work remains free because it’s supported — not because it’s inexpensive.
The RV tour is the next step in making these conversations accessible beyond a screen.
If this space has helped you feel less alone, clearer, or steadier with your dog, supporting the mission helps bring that experience to someone else.
Every listen, every share, every message, every bit of support helps this mission reach dog parents and rescues who need real understanding and real support.
However you’re here — listening, sharing, learning, or resting — thank you.
This space exists because people care, not because they give.
You don’t owe this mission anything.
You’re already part of it.
The Dog Who Asked for More is a podcast and educational space supporting dog parents navigating reactivity, anxiety, barking, big feelings, dog food confusion, enrichment needs, and canine nutrition.
Through real-life conversations and grounded guidance from a canine nutritionist, dog trainer, and retired vet tech, the show explores dog behavior, emotional wellbeing, gut health, enrichment, and the everyday realities of life with complex dogs.
This space exists to help dogs — and the humans who love them — feel safer, more understood, and more supported.
