Do you have any favorite holiday dishes that you’re looking forward to most?
Its not everyones favorite, but its delicious.
Its a rutabaga puree.
Badlands Ranch
And its the best, most delicious side dish, in my opinion.
And my mother’s raspberry Jell-O salad.
I crave it because its raspberry Jell-O, crushed walnuts and pineapple juice, and its two layers.
Its a bit of a palate cleanser, if you will.
Oil of oregano, which I prefer in pill form because the liquid form is brutal.
I learned this actually from my co-stars onSuits.
Homemade chicken soup is the best go-to, and thats one everyone will eat for sure.
Could you talk more about why you started Badlands Ranch and how the cause has grown since?
Im a dog person and I talk a lot about my dogs and my rescue foundation.
Would I just be adding more to the clutter and confusion for consumers?
I wanted to incorporate some things into it that Im really passionate about.
And the answer was yes.
That was the drive for me to get into that arena.
And now its turned into a lifelong calling.
I think it has given both of us a real purpose in life that feels truly meaningful and impactful.

Do you have any go-to recipes that you feed your dogs?
If Im going to give them something special, I make them something special.
I keep it to lean proteins like fish, salmon or chicken.
Organ meats are amazing.
This all sounds kind of gross, but liver, raw egg and maybe a pinch of turmeric.
Turmeric is really great for dogs, and humans too, for inflammation and joint health and gut health.
And ginger is really great for gut health.
Keeping them at a healthy weight and keeping them in great shape is really important.
Theres so much people can do.
They could use every penny.
Rescue, dont buy.
