I Tried Ollie for My Active Border Collie and the Results Were Amazing. Top Story - December 2024. Created with: Ollie.
As a dog mom living in New York City with my energetic Border Collie Alvin, feeding him the right food is a big priority for me. Alvin and I are always on the move—whether it’s fetching all over Central Park, running through a new agility course, or exploring on one of our many weekend adventures. His food not only has to keep up with his energy levels and give him the proper nutrition to stay healthy and active, but it also needs to fit in with our busy lifestyle. When I came across Ollie, a brand that makes dog food using all-natural, human-grade ingredients, I knew we had to give both their fresh food and gently-baked kibble a try. And let me tell you, Alvin and I both loved it!

Ollie Made a Huge Difference in My Dog’s Allergies. I Would Never Go Back to Anything Else. . Top Story - September 2024. Created with: Ollie.
Poppy is a 5-year-old red and white basset hound living in Brooklyn, NY. She came from a small town–having been born and lived her first two years in Mount Olive, a rural Illinois. I got her as a puppy when I was a senior in college, and my dad helped raise her while I was finishing up school.

Ditch the Kibble, Choose Ollie: Edna’s Secret to High Energy. Top Story - September 2024. Created with: Ollie.
Edna the Runt, my pint-sized Brussels Griffon, is a 3-year-old, 5-pound ball of energy with a personality that’s as big as her heart. While her social media fanbase, the EdHeads, loves watching her munch on a French fry in our weekly “French Fry Friday”, there’s much more behind the scenes to Edna’s diet that keeps her in top form (as much as we’d all love to live on a diet of french fries and cheese).

Tired of Stressful Feeding Prep? Ollie is the Easy AND Healthy Answer. Top Story - September 2024. Created with: Ollie.
Meet Gnocchi, my beloved English Bulldog, who has a larger-than-life personality packed into a squat, muscular frame. Gnocchi is obsessed with an array of peculiar things: from balls that he chases with the enthusiasm of a puppy, to plush sloths that he cuddles with as if they were his best friends. He’s even got a thing for pool noodles, which he drags around the house like they’re his prized possessions. But above all, Gnocchi’s greatest love is food. This boy is always hungry, no matter how elaborate or frequent his meals.

From Allergies to Relief: How Ollie Transformed My Dogs' Lives. Top Story - September 2024. Created with: Ollie.
Bub and Simon are more than just pets; they're family. When I first adopted them, I was determined to give them the best life possible, and that included finding the right food to support their health. Both of my boys are pit bull/bully mixes, and while they bring so much joy into my life, they also come with their fair share of health challenges.

Morning Bliss. Top Story - June 2024.
Something pulls at me. The darkness no longer so dark, but a softer gray, a flutter of light. The feeling of skin against sheets is fleeting, quickly drowned out by the push of bone against muscle, of nerves once silent now screaming. Awareness is painful, every breath rattling my ribs and pushing my spine against its cord.

Why Indie and Otis Came to Love Ollie. Top Story - May 2024. Created with: Ollie.
Like most dog moms, the best part of my day is the time spent with my dogs. I have an 8 year old Pittie mix named Indie and a two year old Frenchie mix named Otis. Indie is my soul dog and the love of my life. She has inspired me to become a photographer, a business owner, and a creator, among other things. She is the smartest and most loyal creature who selflessly makes sure that I’m happy above all else. Most of the time, she knows how I’m feeling before I do. When we’re together, she’s my shadow–never more than a few inches from me at all times.

Her Majesty Mia and her minions. Top Story - May 2024.
I rule this rag tag lot… they’re not much, but they’re all I’ve got! I preside at the head of the table, my indisputable, rightful place. But, I randomly perch on other chairs at a moment’s notice… whenever the mood strikes. Such fun keeping them off balance. Fun reminding them who’s boss... ME!

The Brat Pack. Top Story - March 2024.
Seamus, Murphy, and Moose are military pups. We acquired all three dogs from random places near where we’ve been stationed – a run-down housing estate on the outskirts of Cambridge, a McDonalds parking lot, and a farm in the middle of deepest, darkest Norfolk. During the past eight years they’ve grown accustomed to air force life and understand that every so often they must pack up their paws and move with us.

My cat died on Friday. Top Story - March 2024. Content Warning.
My cat died on Friday. One of my cats. I have two. Had. It was sudden, quick, horrible, and in my arms, and now I feel funny about my arms. Like they betrayed me somehow, these strong, capable limbs I use to love and to care, vessels, instead, of dying.

Looking Back at Our Building Year. Top Story - February 2024.
Away, 2023--Onward, 2024! So, last year was a building year. More accurately, it was a REbuilding year. In 2023, Kathleen and I found ourselves bottlenecked with our dogs. I only had one goat left and he was a male, which is fine unless you have dairy goats for milk! Dan and I had become dissatisfied with buying our laying hens from other people, and so embarked on creating our own landrace. He and I also re-evaluated what we were doing, gardening-wise, now that he's recovering and feeling more like himself. And, finally, I decided to make another attempt at raising quail for meat and for eggs. Phew! We were busy, even though we didn't seem to be doing much!
