5 Ways to Show Your Dog You Love Them

As dog parents, we do everything we can to keep our pups happy, healthy, and safe. But beyond belly rubs and morning walks, how can we go the extra mile to show our dogs just how much we love them?

Here are five heartfelt (and science-backed) ways to give your dog the care and connection they crave!

1. Give Them Special Treats (That Aren’t Just Empty Calories)

Every dog loves a good treat. But showing love doesn’t have to mean handing over high-calorie snacks filled with mystery ingredients. Instead, look for treats that support their health while satisfying their taste buds.

Whether it’s a lick of peanut butter, a slice of banana, or a scoop of their favorite food topper, the best treats are the ones that also serve a purpose.

2. Look After Their Dental Care With Products Like Doggie Dental™

Most pet parents don’t realize that oral hygiene is just as important for dogs as it is for humans. In fact, over 80% of dogs show signs of dental disease by age three. But brushing your dog’s teeth daily can be a nightmare, and dental chews don’t always cut it.

That’s where Doggie Dental™ by Other Half comes in, a first-of-its-kind oral health powder powered by a patent-pending Canine Oral-Health Postbiotic (COHP). This unique ingredient is backed by three independent clinical trials and has been shown to:

• Disrupt oral biofilms by 98% in vitro

• Reduce odor-causing compounds (like volatile sulfur compounds) in just 7 days

• Help minimize plaque, tartar, and bad breath at the microbial level

Just sprinkle it on your dog’s food once a day and you’re supporting cleaner teeth, fresher kisses, and a healthier smile, no toothbrush battles required.

Even better? It’s made with 100% human-grade ingredients, contains no fillers, and pairs perfectly with Other Half’s Everyday™ multivitamin for full-body wellness.

3. Celebrate Their Birthday (Yes, Really!)

You don’t need to throw a doggie disco party (though we won’t judge if you do). Just a little something special can go a long way to show your pup they’re loved.

🎁 Here are a few birthday ideas:

• Make homemade frozen treats using bone broth and their favorite kibble.

• Let them pick out a toy at the pet store.

• Go on a sniffari, an unstructured walk where they get to lead the way.

• Upgrade mealtime with a scoop of their favorite food topper.

4. Use Daily Multivitamins Like Everyday™

Good nutrition is one of the most powerful ways to show your dog you love them. But even the best dog foods can leave nutritional gaps; especially when it comes to long-term health, aging, allergies, or inflammation.

That’s why pet parents everywhere are turning to Everyday™ by Other Half, the cleanest, most comprehensive powdered dog supplement on the market.

With zero fillers, zero artificial flavors, and 45 premium, purpose-driven ingredients, Everyday™ delivers real benefits across your dog’s most important health systems:

• Mobility: Glucosamine, chondroitin, turmeric, and MSM support joints and reduce inflammation.

• Digestion: Probiotics, ginger, goat milk, and inulin keep tummies calm and regular.

• Immunity & Aging: Ingredients like CoQ10, resveratrol, lutein, taurine, and more boost energy, cognitive clarity, and cellular protection.

• Allergy Relief: Quercetin and spirulina help fight seasonal irritants from the inside out

Plus, it's bacon + pumpkin flavored and super easy to serve: just scoop, sprinkle, and mix. Your dog will think it’s a treat, but you’ll know it’s one of the best love letters you could ever write them, in supplement form.

5. Give Them Plenty of Cuddles (and a Calm, Stimulating Routine)

At the end of the day, dogs want what we all do: safety, comfort, and connection. Daily snuggles and belly rubs are essential, but the best love is also about creating a routine that keeps them mentally fulfilled.

🐾 Mental stimulation = less anxiety, less destructive behavior, and more tail wags.

Here are some easy ways to stimulate your dog’s mind and make bonding part of your everyday routine:

• Puzzle feeders: Hide food or kibble inside toys that make your dog work to get it out.

• Training games: Teach new tricks or revisit old ones using positive reinforcement.

• Enrichment walks: Let your dog explore new scents and environments at their own pace.

• Scent-based hide-and-seek: Hide treats around the house and let your dog sniff them out.

Why Clean Supplements = a Clearer Way to Show Love

Both Everyday™ and Doggie Dental™ were built on the idea that our pets deserve the same standards we expect for ourselves. That means:

• 🧪 Clinically-tested ingredients backed by real science, not empty promises

• 🧼 Human-grade, food-safe standards for every ingredient

• ❌ No fillers, no preservatives, no artificial junk

• 💚 Vet-recommended, purpose-driven formulas designed to improve long-term health

These aren’t just products, they’re part of a bigger mission to rewrite the rules of pet care, one scoop at a time.

Final Wags: Love is in the Little Things

You don’t need fancy gadgets, expensive gear, or five-star spa days to show your dog you love them. Sometimes, love looks like a scoop of dental powder that keeps their breath kissably fresh. Sometimes, it’s a multivitamin that helps their hips stay strong and their coat stay shiny.

And sometimes, love is just sitting beside them with your hand on their back and your heart full.

But with Other Half, you don’t have to choose between convenience and care. Doggie Dental™ and Everyday™ make it easy to give your pup the love they deserve, with clean, clinically-backed nutrition they’ll actually enjoy.
