StarterBud™ | Senior – Small (10-30 lbs)

Welcoming an adult dog—whether newly adopted or entering their golden years—should feel empowering, not overwhelming. The StarterBud™: Senior Edition was created by a nationally certified trainer to simplify setup and support successful, long-term companionship. With 16 hand-picked essentials tailored to your dog’s size and stage of life, it’s more than a product—it’s a trusted system designed to reduce returns, promote confident ownership, and strengthen the rescue network.

🎓 Includes our Canine Kindergarten: Training Basics Digital Manual ($19.99 value) and an exclusive 50% OFF a collar of your choosing with every Senior StarterBud purchase. The manual is yours to download instantly; your collar discount will be delivered after checkout.

Available Sizes: Senior – Small, Medium, Large

Items may arrive in separate shipments depending on supplier availability.

StarterBud™ was developed by Dont Be Breedist™ and first launched in May 2025. While individual products are sourced externally, the StarterBud concept—including its name, structure, and mission—is the intellectual property of Dont Be Breedist™ and may not be copied or replicated.

💖 For every 5 StarterBud Packs sold, 1 is donated to a rescue dog in need.

Your purchase supports a growing initiative to pair rescue-ready dogs with individuals—particularly women—leaving domestic violence situations. This program is in early development as we continue building partnerships with rescues nationwide.
