🐶👓 What if a tiny pair of glasses could change your dog’s life?

In this episode, Em chats with Elizabeth, author of Charlie Gets Glasses, to share the incredible story of Charlie—a senior dog whose UV-protective glasses helped him navigate cataracts and see the world in a new way.

💡 What started as a playful idea turned into something much bigger. Elizabeth uses her book to educate and normalize wearing glasses—for both dogs and humans—and spark important conversations about senior dog care, aging with dignity, and creating safer, more supportive homes for aging pets.

🎧 Whether you're caring for a senior pup or just love a heartwarming story, this episode is full of inspiration, insight, and tail wags.
