Practical dog health tips for large breed owners

About Dana Cole: Your Partner in Raising Healthy Big Dogs

Welcome to Big Dog Daily! I'm Dana Cole, and if you're a large breed dog owner, you're in the right place. For over a decade, my life has revolved around the beautiful chaos and immense joy of raising large-breed rescues. From managing their specific dietary needs to finding gear that actually stands up to their strength, and navigating complex health challenges, I've seen it all. This isn't just a passion; it's my life's work to share what I've learned to help you raise a thriving big dog.

My Journey & Expertise

My journey began as a long-time dog trainer, working firsthand with countless large dogs and their owners, understanding their unique temperaments and needs. This practical experience, combined with my role as a pet health content writer and dog gear reviewer, has given me a unique perspective. I'm not just relaying information; I'm testing products, researching dog health supplements, and implementing care strategies in my own home, with my own beloved giants. Every piece of advice, every recommendation you find on Big Dog Daily, comes from real-world experiences and a commitment to helping you make informed decisions about large breed dog health.

My Approach: No-Nonsense & Practical Solutions

Let's be honest, raising a large dog comes with its unique set of challenges – and often, expensive ones. That's why my approach is always 'no-nonsense.' You won't find fluffy, theoretical advice here. Instead, I focus on practical dog health tips for large breed owners that you can actually implement. Whether it's deciphering confusing food labels, understanding key health supplements for big dogs, finding durable large dog gear, or tackling common behavior issues with effective large dog training strategies, my goal is to provide clear, actionable solutions that truly work. I believe in honest, tested recommendations because I know how frustrating it can be to waste money on solutions that don't deliver.
