Understanding Trauma, Part One
28 maart 2023 · 1 uur 13 min
Trigger Warning: This episode discusses trauma and abuse. Lees meer
In this first episode of our Trauma series, Nikki and Britteny dive into how trauma affects the different parts of the brain.
Understanding how your dog's brain is affected is the first step in helping your dog to cope with their trauma as well as helping them to overcome it.
Psychology today says this about trauma.
Trauma is a person’s emotional response to a distressing experience. Few people can go through life without encountering some kind of trauma. Unlike ordinary hardships, traumatic events tend to be sudden and unpredictable, involve a serious threat to life—like bodily injury or death—and feel beyond a person’s control. Most important, events are traumatic to the degree that they undermine a person's sense of safety in the world and create a sense that catastrophe could strike at any time. Parental loss in childhood, auto accidents, physical violence, sexual assault, military combat experiences, the unexpected loss of a loved one are commonly traumatic events.

Discussing Behavioral Euthanasia
19 december 2022 · 1 uur 3 min
TW: Discussions on animal abuse, hoarding, dog aggression and euthanasia. Lees meer
In this episode, Nikki is joined by DogSpeak trainer, Alicia and Animal Rescue Corps, Director of Animal Welfare, Kim Rezac.
Behavioral Euthanasia is a topic no one wants to talk about. The adage of "it's all in how you raise them" is unfortunately untrue. Dogs are individuals and they often have traumas that they are unable to overcome and for the safety of humans and other animals, behavioral euthanasia is the most humane choice.
Regardless of which side of the discussion you are on, this episode will give you the view from a behavior specialist dealing mostly with pets, an animal welfare director who works with dogs from hoarding/abusive situations, and a former dog foster that had to make the most difficult decision with her foster.
