Dylan Blau A Famous Dog Trainer, Creates The Fountain Of Youth For Dogs With A Super Supplement Called Maximum Life Formula

The Chicago Journal Admin on June 27, 2025

Dylan Blau is leading a grassroots revolution in dog nutrition and he’s doing it without the tired endorsements that have defined the pet supplement world for decades. As co-founder of Dog Trainer Approved, Blau is flipping the script with a radically honest and high-potency solution: Maximum Life Formula, a super supplement engineered by dog trainers for active dogs, aging companions, and every pup in between.

As a professional dog trainer for the last 17 years, Blau knows first-hand what peak canine performance looks like and more importantly, what it takes to maintain it with an older dog. “We created a product not around trends or vet stamps, but around what actually works and what dogs need to thrive,” Blau says. “Dog trainers are in the trenches every day. We know what dogs need to perform at their best, recover quickly, and live longer, fuller lives.”

At the heart of Dog Trainer Approved is a deep dissatisfaction with the current standard in pet wellness. The so-called “Veterinarian Recommended” label, once a hallmark of trust, has lost its meaning, Blau argues. “When 99.9% of supplements carry that label, as well as being packed with 5 to 20 inactive or artificial ingredients, it becomes clear: the label doesn’t guarantee quality, it guarantees marketing,” he says. “We proudly don’t display that stamp on our packaging. What we offer is something better: real, measurable benefits from real ingredients, that any dog trainer can approve.”

Maximum Life Formula was born from years of hands-on training experience. Working with dogs in high-intensity disciplines like agility, protection, hunting, hiking, and swimming, Blau and his team saw firsthand how performance improved when dogs received the right nutrients before and after activity. Recovery times shortened. Energy levels spiked. And long-term health markers improved. This wasn’t just anecdotal—it was observable science in action.

What sets Maximum Life Formula apart is its blistering potency and complete transparency. With over 5,000 mg of premium ingredients and zero fillers, it stands in direct opposition to the fragmented supplement lines that ask consumers to buy multiple low-dose products just to see marginal results. Other brands may push 10-in-1 benefits, but Maximum Life Formula delivers more than 100 benefits in one blend, thanks to 11 meticulously selected ingredients that each serve multiple functions.

Each scoop of the daily meal topper includes:

  • 2,000 mg of Beef Bone Broth
  • 765 mg of Organic Kelp Meal
  • 500 mg of Green Lipped Mussel
  • 500 mg of Collagen Peptide
  • 500 mg of Glucosamine
  • 500 mg of MSM
  • 370 mg of Krill Meal
  • 175 mg of Beef Liver
  • 100 mg of Magnesium
  • 30 mg each of Taurine and Vitamin C

The formula supports joint and cartilage health, enhances overall recovery, promotes cognitive clarity and immune function, and even improves skin hydration and dental health. It’s made in the USA with all-natural, whole-food ingredients and contains no artificial flavors, oils, or preservatives.

For dog owners with Belgian Malinois, German Shepherds, or other high-drive breeds, Maximum Life Formula has quickly become a daily essential. But even for senior dogs or everyday companions, the supplement delivers noticeable improvements in energy, focus, flexibility, and coat health within weeks. This product is also great for large dogs that need higher doses of nutrients, something hard to find in today’s market.

“The goal is to stop the symptoms of old age before they begin,” Blau says. “Most dog owners only start supplements for their dog when issues show up, but by then, it’s often too late. We believe in proactive health. Give your dog the tools to stay strong, not just recover when things go wrong. Dogs deserve to live longer and it’s not enough to only use proactive measures. That’s why we chose ingredients that can rejuvenate and restore your dog’s health for the most advanced anti-aging benefits available today.”

Blau’s passion stems from a deeper truth: dog trainers love dogs in a different way. Their connection comes from movement, behavior, shared discipline, and trust built through training. This perspective, he believes, offers a level of care that’s been missing in the supplement space. “Dog trainers are trying to make sure your dog has the best chance to thrive,” he says. “We don’t profit from your dog getting sick, we lose sleep over it.”

With Maximum Life Formula now available exclusively at www.DogTrainerApproved.com, Dylan Blau and his team are setting a new benchmark for canine wellness, one that puts integrity before endorsements and performance before profit.

Dog Trainer Approved isn’t just a brand, it’s a movement to make dogs healthy again, led by those who care most and know best. For anyone serious about their dog’s health, this is the supplement, and the voice, that’s worth listening to.

A pharmacist by profession turns into a reality TV star – Roxanne Hamedi

The Chicago Journal Admin on December 15, 2022

Dreams do come true, and that’s just not for fairytales but in real life as well. Some people believe that they have their lives sorted with everything planned out and placed in the order they have set. However, there comes an opportunity that changes everything and turns your life around for the better. Such is the story of pharmacist turned reality TV celebrity – Roxanne Hamedi. 

The 29-year-old, gorgeous Persian-Scottish woman who can speak both English and Farsi fluently earned her degree in pharmacy. Soon after completing her degree, she started practicing, and it was during a relationship that she moved to London. Even then, she continued her practice. But life had something else in store for her. During her stay in the UK, Roxanne Hamedi was spotted on Instagram and was approached for a meeting with MTV London. After a few meetings, she was asked to pack her bags, get into a cab and go to Newcastle, where she would be quarantined for two weeks with a bunch of strangers on MTV’s show Geordie Shore.  

Talking about how one thing led to another, Roxanne Hamedi shared, “I always wanted to help people as I am quite a caring person, so my job as a pharmacist is quite rewarding for me.” She further stated, “However, there was a time when I wanted to try out a new direction because I have also always wanted to be famous too. Hence, when the opportunity came up for Geordie Shore, I just couldn’t miss it.”  

Roxanne was featured on the series 22 of Geordie Shore called “Hot Single Summer,” where the original cast would go in and meet other “singles,” and then they dated each other. Every few days, someone would be eliminated and leave the house. The idea was to find your soulmate by meeting and dating different people in a closed environment. “I fell for a guy called James Tindale, and our connection was very strong from the beginning. He made it clear that I was the only girl he wanted, and he had planned so many nice dates for us inside the house. We also saw each other a few times after filming for 4 weeks,” Roxanne explained. “Basically, I was the only contestant to have gone into the house from the start and finished until the end, where James asked me to be his girlfriend. I essentially won the show,” she added. 

For Roxanne, doing reality TV was a completely different ballgame that changed her life. It was not like a job but was fun, glamorous and exciting, something completely different from healthcare. It was like a challenge, something she had never experienced before, and she loved it to bits. The excitement, the adrenaline rush, the unpredictability of the job, everything enthralled her. The fame and the love she received post-show motivated her to work more on the small screen. In fact, she aspires to become a TV presenter and appear on shows like Strictly Come Dancing, Dancing on Ice, or I am A Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here.  

The pharmacist turned TV celebrity believes consistency and hard work can do wonders for you. “Rome wasn’t built in a day, and if it were that easy, everyone would be doing it. So, nothing worthwhile comes easy basically, and I believe that when you put the effort in, along with having the right resources and also a bit of luck, you can achieve anything,” she stressed. “Consistency is the most important thing to stay focused on your goals. Whether it is getting up early to go to the gym and then working and being able to sleep at a good time so that you can get your 8 hours a day. Whatever it is you do in life, your efforts have to be consistent in order to achieve your goals,” Roxanne reiterated. 

The intelligent and classy pharmacist who set out on a journey to becoming a TV star wants to make a difference in the world, be it through her healthcare work or her TV persona. She is kind, compassionate and believes in the goodness of people. She wants to utilize her celebrity status to talk about people’s health and wellness and help them do better in life. 

Roxanne Hamedi is living the best of both worlds. In her line of pharmacy, she gets to help people through her medical advice and feels immensely rewarded when people come up to her and tell her how her advice helped them get better. While working on TV, she gets to express her alter ego and has fun with life. Being true to her work makes her admired by people both on-screen and off-screen. And as far as her journey to success is concerned… the journey has just begun.
