Prioritizing my Pup’s Health: Why I Switched to this Fresh Food Option
Oh, Teddy. He’s my main man! And everyone else’s, too. We all love seeing Teddy on camera—and of course, I want him to be as happy and as healthy as possible, both on camera and off.

It's Impossible to Write With a Dog
It's impossible to write with a dog hovering over your shoulder. Perhaps if you have a small lap dog, like a Yorkie or a Dachshund, you may tend to disagree, but a great big fur-baby like a German Shepherd? Impossible, I say.

Nuggets
I’m a proud Tokyoite and have been for my 5 years living here. The alley I live on provides cozy spots to curl up for a nap, a variety of delicious scraps, and sometimes a passerby will give me a nice scratch on my back. I purr and rub against their leg and they might even give me a bit of their tuna sandwich. Unlike my alley-mates, I’m not scared of people. I’m the only one who knows my human given name, Takeo. When I was very young I lived with some folks and they were kind to me, but they were an elderly couple. They passed away a year apart from each other. The lady of the house fed me well and let me do as I please for the last year of her life. I had been mostly an indoor cat but I think she sensed my desire for the great outdoors. I was out roaming the streets when she took her last breath. I mourned her passing, but I expected it and we cats accept death better than humans.

They say you don't know what you have till it's gone, but that was never true for you. We knew exactly what we had, and somehow that makes it so much harder.

Searching for the Light
There are moments in life, so fleeting and seemingly mundane, that it is only upon later reflection that we understand their profound significance. This is my journey to that moment.

The Clean Plate Club
We’ve all seen it—those puppy dog eyes that seem to grow cartoonishly large right around dinner time. It was truly a battle to say “no” when our fur baby, Saucy, would stare longingly at our plates, completely ignoring the overflowing bowl of kibble that sat untouched beside her. What began with a few bites of chicken from our plate here or a carrot tossed to her there, quickly escalated into a nightly begging routine in which we wound up losing half of our meals to Saucy! This constant table-side begging became an issue we both wanted to solve for ourselves and our sweet girl. We wanted Saucy to eat food she loves, but it was difficult to get her to want what’s on her plate instead of what's on ours, especially when we know that the ingredients in her generic-brand food are oftentimes toxic and a bit sketchy.

A Healthy Diet for the Whole Family
Many parents have made the decision to switch to natural and minimally processed foods to help their children stay healthy. Because pets are a part of the family too, the same decision should be made about what you feed to your pet! As a mother of four, it is extremely important to me that all of my little ones are well-fed with the most nutritious, wholesome food I could possibly find out there—that’s when I decided to make the switch and start serving up Sundays to my pup, Pepper! Sundays is a great dog food alternative to your standard kibble, that's not only healthier and tastier, but just as easy to whip up for your pet. When I learned about Sundays health benefits and the convenient subscription delivery service, there was no looking back for my Pepper. I rest assured knowing he’s eating nutritious food he loves and is gaining strength with every bite! His health is extremely important to me as his energy makes our home come to life with energy, laughter, and fun—we need him in his best shape! Read on to learn how Sundays makes customizing Pepper’s meals so easy, the benefits of Pepper being on a healthier diet (with easy cleanup for my busy days), and how awesome and convenient it is having Sundays delivered to my home!
