IS THIS YOU RIGHT NOW?
🌀 You have found yourself caught in
the same struggles,
with feelings of frustration, unsettled, and stuck?
🐶 You love and adore your dog, but some days it feels like
you’re both out of
sync and they test
your patience?
💣You’re craving calm, but chaos keeps creeping in — from you, from your dog, and everything life throws your way?
🌱You dream of a deeper bond with your dog, one that brings calm, understanding, and more connection to your worlds?
You’re not alone. Sometimes the Guru we need comes with paws and present love.
✴ What if you could move through challenges with grace?
You stop striving for perfection and start embracing progress. Every setback becomes a shared lesson, every success a celebration. You and your dog grow together, side by side, with ease and understanding.
✴ What if you could read your dog’s energy and respond with patience?
Instead of frustration, you pause, breathe, and notice what your dogs subtle signals. You begin to see patterns, emotions, and needs beneath the behaviour. Every moment becomes a chance to practise understanding, and your dog responds with newfound trust.
✴ What if you could felt a beautiful sense of peace?
You find yourself smiling more, breathing deeper, and feeling lighter. Your dog rests beside you, content and calm. Together, you’ve created a space of peace that radiates through every part of your life.
"Every card spoke to me."
Jan & Dusty

Upon receiving the cards, I sat down and read every single card in the My Dog, My Guru deck. The sentiments in every card are beautifully crafted, designed, coloured, and worded. I even found myself organising them and choosing favourites from each section!
Each card felt like a gentle nudge toward self-awareness and calm. The affirmations made me smile, reflect, and sometimes laugh at myself — like when I realised I might be a bit of a micromanager or not quite as spontaneous as I thought!
They resonate deeply with my personal journey of growth and self-discovery. Each card offers a unique perspective, guiding me through moments of clarity, reflection, and personal growth. I'm delighted by the depth and wisdom they bring to my daily life along-side my Kelpie, Dusty.
It’s clear these cards were created with deep understanding and care. Thank you Susie, for creating such a meaningful tool for personal introspection and connection with my boy.

If you’ve been waiting for a sign that you’re not alone — this is it...
We’ve all had those moments where we feel stretched thin, unsure, or disconnected from the peace we crave. We wonder if we're missing something, or if everyone else has it more together than us.
The truth is, you’re not alone.
Growth isn’t always graceful, and the path to peace often begins in the messiest moments. What if this journey wasn’t about fixing anything, but about remembering who you are beneath the noise? What if your dog’s presence simply helps you see yourself more clearly — your patience, your compassion, your capacity to grow?
That’s the heart of My Dog, My Guru. It’s not just about understanding your dog, it’s about rediscovering yourself — with your loyal companion quietly guiding you back home to who you’ve always been.
