Meet the Brands Supporting Our Journey

Real brands. Real support. Real impact.

Real brands. Real support. Real boundaries.


The Dog Who Asked for More is more than a podcast.
It’s a free, judgment-free space for dog parents navigating barking, reactivity, anxiety, nutrition confusion, enrichment overwhelm, and the everyday challenges no one prepares you for.


Keeping these conversations accessible — and taking this mission on the road — is made possible by sponsors who believe in education, ethics, and real-life support for dogs and their people.


Here’s what sponsorship does not mean:
Sponsors do not influence our opinions, recommendations, or content.
We don’t promote products we don’t genuinely use, trust, or believe support dog wellbeing.

That boundary is non-negotiable.

Why Sponsorship Matters — and How We Choose Partners

Sponsors help us keep creating free, honest conversations for dog parents who are searching for clarity — without putting content behind paywalls or watering down hard topics.


But not every brand gets a spot here.


We partner only with companies that align with our values, including:


• Products we actually use with our own dogs
• Thoughtful sourcing, formulation, and safety standards
• Support for sensitive, senior, rescue, and big-feeling dogs
• A shared belief that dogs deserve care rooted in understanding — not force


The brands featured here aren’t just names on a page.
They’re part of the ecosystem that helps this work continue — responsibly.

How We Choose Our Partners

A quick note on sponsorship:

The brands featured on this page support the podcast — they do not influence what I teach, recommend, or say. 


I only work with companies I already use, trust, and believe genuinely support dogs’ wellbeing.


For example, PetMatRx isn’t here because they’re a supplement company — they’re here because their products are part of our dogs’ daily support. SwiftPaws isn’t here because it’s trendy — it’s here because it genuinely helps Fitz regulate and settle.


Every brand on this page earned its place through real-life use, not marketing promises.

The Mental & Physical Enrichment Your Dog Deserves


Mental and physical stimulation are essential for your dog’s overall well-being. SwiftPaws Lure Course Kits combine both into one fun, instinct-satisfying game. Designed to tap into your dog’s natural chase drive, these kits help reduce boredom, burn energy, and boost fitness—all in a single play session.


Why we use them:
SwiftPaws is Fitz’s absolute favorite outdoor enrichment. It gives him a chance to run, chase, and engage his brain at the same time — not just burn energy, but use it well. After short, intentional play sessions, he’s genuinely tired and able to settle, not overstimulated. It’s one of the few activities that consistently meets both his mental and physical needs in a way his nervous system can handle. 


Use code SUDT10 to save 10% and give your dog the enrichment they deserve.

Wholesome, All-Natural Dog Treats for Every Pup


Marcy’s Pet Kitchen® is a woman-owned company creating wholesome, all-natural dog treats made with premium ingredients — proudly crafted in the USA. Their treats are designed for dogs with sensitive stomachs, food sensitivities, or anyone looking for a cleaner, simpler reward.


Made with thoughtfully selected, plant-based ingredients like alfalfa herb and dandelion root, these treats are formulated to support digestion and overall wellness. They’re low-calorie, contain no added sodium, and avoid common top allergens — making them a great option for dogs on sensitive, low-glycemic, or carefully balanced diets.


Featured in Pets Plus Magazine as a “Healthy Reward,” Marcy’s Pet Kitchen treats are 4 Paws UP Approved for good reason.


Why we use them:
As a Certified Professional Canine Nutritionist (CPCN), I’m always looking for treats with minimal additives and simple ingredient profiles. Both Fitz and Toby love the Peanut Butter and Pumpkin options, and I appreciate that these treats are designed with digestion and dietary sensitivity in mind. When I’m choosing treats, I prioritize options that feel supportive — not disruptive — to a dog’s overall nutrition plan, and these fit well into that philosophy.

A Quick Note on Trust

We know sponsorship can raise questions — especially for dog parents who have been misled before.

Supporting these brands helps fund the mission.


It does not change how we speak, teach, or advocate for dogs.


Our standards don’t shift based on partnerships — and they never will.


Sponsorship helps keep this work accessible — it never changes the standards behind it.
Every recommendation here reflects real use, real trust, and the same care I bring to every conversation about dogs and the people who love them.
