Just Bre: Life on the Road & The Dogs That Changed Everything

This week, Bre takes a break from guest interviews and shares the story behind Tailswell, the dogs who changed her life, and the path that led her from accounting, photography and design into holistic dog health education. She reflects on grief, regrets, quality of life, raising Pine differently, navigating travel and raw feeding on the road, and why her goal has never been perfection or longevity at all costs but helping dogs live fuller, healthier lives for as long as they’re here.

Judy Comer: Less Babying. More Trust. A Different Conversation About Dogs

Bre Drake sits down with animal behavior specialist and former breeder Judy Comer-Calder, the Devon Dog Lady, for a conversation on what happens when we stop treating dogs like little humans and start understanding them as dogs. Together they explore behavior, leadership, separation anxiety, overstimulation, movement, species-appropriate living, and why so many modern struggles may actually begin in the relationship itself.

Dr. Judy Jasek: When Your Dog Gets Cancer, A Different Conversation

Cancer can feel like the scariest word a dog parent hears, but what if diagnosis isn’t the end of the conversation? In this episode, Bre Drake sits down with holistic veterinarian Dr. Judy Jasek (40+ years in practice) to talk about prevention, environment, movement, nutrition, stress, and supporting the body’s innate ability to adapt and heal.

Kay Stewart: Fresh Food, Real Biology, Thriving Dogs

In this episode of Love Your Dogs, Bre sits down with Kay Stewart of the Feed Real Institute to unpack the truth about canine nutrition, raw feeding, kibble culture, and the anatomy of a carnivore. Kay, lead educator at the Feed Real Institute, is also a Registered Veterinary Technician and Certified Professional Canine Nutritionist with over 40 years of experience in the veterinary field, and has been endorsed by multiple veterinarians and canine nutritionists specifically to teach nutrition courses. Together, they dive into why dogs were never designed to live on ultra-processed food, how veterinary nutrition education is heavily influenced by the pet food industry, the problem with synthetic vitamins and minerals, why dental disease has become normalized in dogs, and how fresh feeding can be far more affordable and approachable than people think. This conversation is packed with practical guidance, foundational biology, and empowering perspective shifts for dog parents looking to feed and support their dogs in a more species-appropriate way.
