To start this episode, I’ll tell you another creature feature.  Do you remember the part in the movie, The Wizard of OZ when Toto and Dorothy are swept away in their house by a tornado?  If you think a dog being carried away is only fiction, wait till you hear this. Then, I’ve got news.  After a stay-at-home order, due to the pandemic, Rocket, the NutriSource Pet Food’s sponsored, M Health Fairview - University of Minnesota - Masonic Children’s Hospital dog, is back at his job - helping children and families again deal with all the aspects of a hospital stay. His partner and handler, Anna Dressel, tells the stories of how Rocket keeps surprising her with the profound ways he affects others, what he particularly excels at in helping children and all about his third birthday celebration.   What can you do to create good mental welfare for your cat?  Follow the guideline: Don’t stimulate the emotions of RAGE, FEAR or GRIEF in them if you can help it and do stimulate SEEKING and PLAY as much as possible. These are core emotion systems in the brains of both you and your pets. Today, I’ll explain how FEAR affects cats and what you can do to keep your cat from feeling it so much.

Ignorar a los perros cuando nos saltan y cuando nos quieren saludar es algo muy sonado, algo incluso que yo misma recomendaba anteriormente.Hoy se que esto no es lo adecuado. Desde un punto de vista frío, esa técnica o consejo llega a funcionar (con algunos perros, no todos) porque se rompe el vínculo afectivo y disminuye su alegría de vernos.Cuando aprendí esto dije "yo no quiero herir los sentimientos de mis perros y lastimar el vínculo que tengo con ellos".En este episodio te compartiré lo que aprendí de una de las personas en el ámbito canino que más admiro y de quien he aprendido muchísimo: Jennifer Arnold fundadora de Canine Assistants.Así que ponle play ahora para empezar a mejorar las interacciones con tu perro y disminuir esos brincos de forma amorosa y sin lastimar el vínculo afectivo.

First, I answer a question from a listener – Scott Martin from Highland Park, Illinois asked why cats are so agile with their feet? I go into the juicy details but overall the secret has to do with them needing to be great hunters. Next, there is a newer revolutionary approach to teaching your dog that does NOT rely on the traditional method of training commands. Rocket, the NutriSource dog that is working as a service dog in a children’s’ hospital (featured in the last two episodes) was taught using the Bond-Based approach. My guest in this episode is Jennifer Arnold, the founder and executive director of Canine Assistants, the non-profit company that teaches and places service dogs, is the developer of the bond-based approach. In this episode she explains how this works for educating service dogs and pet dogs as well. Then, you’ll hear the personal true pet stories told by a friend and podcast listener himself. Michael Birnbaum shares the story of his dog that stopped him from getting into a nasty physical fight and the emotional tale of how he was going to protect the life of a cat at all costs. Listener Invitation! I’m inviting you to have the opportunity to have your stories told. If your pet, dog or cat, has saved your butt somehow write and tell me your story. I may contact you, we’ll talk about either me telling your story on air, or you telling it yourself, on the podcast. Send me your brief story at susan@raisingyourpaws.com.
