ONLINE EVENT: Health and Wellness Support Group for Pet Care Providers (March)

ABOUT THE EVENT:
🌱 March: Awakening & Renewal
Theme: Embracing New Beginnings—For You and Your Dog

Spring is a season of new beginnings, making it the perfect time to refresh our routines, embrace change, and set intentions for the months ahead—not just for ourselves, but for our dogs as well. As the days grow longer and we transition out of winter, this is an opportunity to evaluate our emotional, psychological, and social well-being, along with how our role as pet guardians impacts our daily lives.

Mental health is a key component of overall well-being, affecting how we think, feel, and act. It influences how we handle stress, relate to others, and make healthy choices. Dogs play a powerful role in our mental health—offering companionship, reducing stress and anxiety, and providing unconditional love. However, being a dedicated pet parent also comes with added responsibilities and pressures.

🐾 Do you ever stress about whether you’re doing enough for your dog?
🐾 Do you feel guilt when life gets busy and you can’t spend as much time with your pup?
🐾 Does the cost of pet care and the pressures of pet parenting sometimes feel overwhelming?

These are common worries that come with loving our dogs deeply. This session will focus on transitioning into spring with a refreshed mindset, while also exploring ways to care for ourselves so we can be the best for our dogs.
