Found Hearts were really lucky to have had some special time with Laura V, a trained and qualified dog behaviourist, author , known from radio sessions from 3AW and the awesome TV show A New Leash on Life with Joel Creasey where she not only helped save pound dogs but saved one for herself to add to her pet family. A recent mother who still ensures her family all mesh well.

As her passion is animals with a lend toward dogs, Laura has spent time developing an awesome new product “Heal” which is a No-Pull Lead to help all dogs specifically those that lunge and pull.

Not only did Laura offer FOUND HEARTS an opportunity to try her new lead we were privileged to be part of a research project from Melbourne University so thank you to the amazing foster carers/adopters of Casper, Rayah (now Yvie), Nudge and Ziggy for turning up on the day to test the product.

Exciting results after the testing which tested the impact of the muscles of the dog from the halti, lead, slip collar and Laura’s Heal product. Fantastically it came out on top with less stress on the dog from pulling.

We are also so excited to say that Laura has generously offered our amazing supporters on our page and your friends a discount of 10% on her product if you use the code below and a percentage of her sales will come to Found Hearts.

As you know we have had so many financial emergencies lately so not only do you have a win by accessing this awesome product at a discount, you are also helping Found Hearts raise more funds to save more dogs.

“I can’t go out tonight, I’m… busy.”

How to Eat Healthy on a Budget

With food prices on the rise, those high calorie low cost “meal deals” are very tempting!

While there’s nothing wrong with enjoying pizza in moderation, there is something wrong with the “healthy foods cost too much” logic.

Because it’s not entirely true. There are more options than many people realise.

Choose affordable whole foods.

Despite what some people think, many minimally-processed whole foods cost less than their more processed cousins.

Take the potato. A medium one costs about a dollar less than small fries.

That potato also has a fraction of the calories (161 vs. 220)—as well as more of a wide variety of nutrients.

The humble potato is just one example of many minimally-processed whole foods that are STILL quite affordable.

Aim for progress, not perfection.

So-called “superfoods” like quinoa can be super pricey.
Brown rice, on the other hand, is about as affordable as it’s ever been, especially if you buy it in bulk. It’s the same with most varieties of beans and lentils.

“You don’t have to pick the ‘best’ in each category to improve your nutrition—even a small improvement in food quality can go a long way. Choose what proteins, smart carbs, healthy fats, fruits, and veggies work for your budget, aiming for just a little better than where you’re at right now

My name is Karen Howden, part of PT on the Run team, but what you may not know is that I am also a Weight Management Consultant and Nutrition Coach.

I have helped clients not only lose weight but also learn how to make better choices where they are comfortable to do so. There are many "ah ha" moments, laughs and maybe the odd tear, but it's an incredible journey and sets you up for a healthy body for the rest of your life!

This is for you if you are after weight loss, weight management , nutrition education and/or improving your general health and DO NOT want to go on a crash diet but DO want to learn how to enjoy not only healthy nutritious meals that are YUMMY, but still eat chocolate and drink wine or whatever your "faves" may be.

My clients' greatest successes have been with my Life Changer program because we work together one on one for the duration (they all tell me they love what they learn but most importantly need the accountability!)

You will learn about yourself and your relationship to food, maybe why you are making certain choices that aren't working for you and at the end of the course not only will you have lost weight but you are more than likely to have changed your relationship with food - without stress, without denying yourself and without starving yourself! And you are also likely to save $$$$$'s in the process.

For those that either are unable to work with me face to face or simply prefer an online program, we have that option for as little as $99. Face to face you are definitely more accountable, however there is an option online that enables you to have contact with me direct also, so all is not lost! Just click on this link for course details and options https://the-music-motion-studio.teachable.com/p/nutrition-bootcamp

For one on one nutrition coaching with me face to face in Alexandra, Victoria, check out this link or contact me direct any time https://www.weightnomoreweightmanagement.com.au/

It's not about giving up everything, it's more about educating yourself on how to make better choices most of the time, as well as understanding why you reach for the poorer choices more often than not! And that it's ok to make poorer choices sometimes - at the end of the day, it's always your choice (it's not good, it's not bad!)

PLEASE NOTE - This is not a crash diet! This is understanding your body and mind and how you can love life, be fit and healthy and feel fabulous - all while NOT denying yourself .

Fitness and its role in weight loss and a healthy body and mind is discussed however again, that is your choice whether you incorporate it in your life and if so, you will be assisted on this journey as well.

However if exercise is of no interest to you, that again is your choice :). We are all different and the one on one program is not a set program for everyone - it is individually designed for YOU and YOUR needs!

Can't wait to meet you if you are ready to take the next step toward the new you, or simply a better version of you!
