How am I supposed to do daily tasks like cooking, laundry and playing with my kids, while I keep an eye on my kids and dogs.it's hard enough to just parent kids or dogs alone, let alone together - this is a normal experience that nobody talks aboutmanagement, such as baby gates, pens and doors are the best strategy to provide safe spaces for both your kids and your dogs and to allow you to take a break.Like we talked about in Episode 1 of the series, being in the same room isn't enough to keep everyone safe - bites can happen right in front of you if you don't know what to look forparents also wonder if they made a mistake by raising kids and dogs together or if they should not have added another dog to the mixsocial media often makes us doubt our parenting skills or our dog training skills because everyone's lives look so much easier and safer than ours.parents with new babies often feel guilty because their dog is getting the short end of the stick or they wonder if the dog would be better off living elsewhereIf you could use some emotional support in your baby's first year (alongside your dog), don't miss The Pooch Parenting Society, the only program designed to provide ongoing support for families raising kids and dogs together.

How are you enriching your dog's life today? This Canine Enrichment Round-Up episode features segments with three amazing guests who are leading the way in canine enrichment. Each guest shares ideas to help you bring more joy to your dog's life and celebrate their dog-ness.   First, we'll hear from Michelle Baker of Fur Kids, Inc. in Tampa, FL. Michelle shares her inspiration for modernizing the world of doggy daycare. We'll learn about a typical day at Fur Kids, the training and education their staff receives, and how they honor the needs of each dog in their care.   Next, we welcome back Tori Mistick of Wear Wag Repeat. As a Certified Canine Enrichment Technician, Tori reveals the enrichment you're probably already doing without even realizing it! Tori's philosophy is that enrichment should be fun, easy & affordable. She shares games, tricks, and activities to easily incorporate into your routine, making your dog's life more exciting. Be sure to check out Tori's Canine Activity Pack for even more inspiration.   Last, but certainly not least, we meet Michelle Morrow of Paws with Me K9 in Concord, NH. Michelle tells us about the dog who inspired her to become a trainer and enrichment specialist. Michelle's enrichment classes, designed with shy, anxious, and reactive dogs in mind, are packed with fun activities like obstacle courses and sniffaris that challenge your dog's mind and body while boosting their confidence.   Find link, photos and show notes at: https://believeindogpodcast.com/episodes-1/episode119   Get your free checklist: Join Erin the Dog Mom's email list to receive the 12 Changes in Your Dog to Never Ignore checklist.

What if it's our end of the leash that needs to change?  When we're struggling with our dog's behavior, Sylvie Savage wants us to consider that it might be the human end of the leash that needs to evolve. In her new book Unleash: How to Evolve from Dog Training to Dog Parenting, Sylvie encourages us to examine our guilt, judgments, expectations and dysregulation – and how these human traits impact our relationship with our dogs.  As a Human-Canine Relationship Specialist, Sylvie is quick to tell us that she's not a dog trainer – and she doesn't want you to expect more from your dog.  Instead, Sylvie gives us a crash course in how to truly see, appreciate and honor our dog's own individuality. Have you ever thought about your values as a Pet Parent?  And whether your actions align with your values?   Sylvie vulnerably shares with us the mistakes she made with her dog, Mollie, when she wasn't acting in alignment, along with the exercise she developed to help us avoid harming our bond with our dogs.   Find links and show notes at: https://believeindogpodcast.com/episodes-1/episode118   Get your free checklist: Join Erin the Dog Mom's email list to receive the 12 Changes in Your Dog to Never Ignore checklist.

Have you ever struggled with your dog's reactivity?  Whether your dog is reactive to other dogs, people or something in the environment, Grisha Stewart's Behavior Adjustment Training (BAT) may be what you've been looking for to help your dog lead a more comfortable life. Grisha developed BAT training while dealing with her own dog, Peanut's, reactivity.  Despite doing everything “right” – according to the dog training advice available at the time – she was she still struggling. Grisha shares with us the principles of BAT and how BAT is based on positive reinforcement, but without the use of food.  Focusing on resiliency and empowering your dog, BAT builds your dog's confidence, communication and trust. What about those times when we face a setback and our dog does get reactive?  We'll learn about the choices we can make to best support our dog from the human end of the leash, as well.   Find links, photos and show notes at: https://believeindogpodcast.com/episodes-1/episode117   Get your free checklist: Join Erin the Dog Mom's email list to receive the 12 Changes in Your Dog to Never Ignore checklist.

Ever since Nessie joined our family, I've had to step up my pet parenting to incorporate more enrichment and training into our home than ever before. I've spent a lot of time (and money!) over the past year trying numerous different online dog training platforms. While many of them have great information, not all of them worked well for me. In this solo episode, I'm sharing the 4 factors you should know before choosing an online dog training class and my top 5 favorite online learning platforms.

Want to give your dog the best year ever?  Let your dog be a dog with more canine enrichment activities in their lives! When Taylor Finton & her husband adopted their American Village dogs – rescued from the island of St. Lucia - Taylor thought it would be fun to document her dogs' new lives in Canada.  So Taylor started Bindi's Bucket List as a blog and on Instagram.  When she started sharing her Kong recipes, pet parents around the world took notice! But as Taylor shares with us, canine enrichment isn't just Kong recipes – it's so much more! Taylor's new book, The Happiest Dog on the Block: Canine Enrichment Activities to Keep Your Dog Young & Healthy, is packed with fun and easy activities that are also backed by scientific research. Did you know there are 6 different categories of canine enrichment? Taylor shares examples of each type and how to determine which are your dog's favorites.  We'll also learn how to create a canine enrichment plan for our dogs and the #1 thing to avoid when trying new enrichment activities. Taylor even tells us how to choose or modify enrichment activities for puppies and senior dogs, as well as fearful or reactive dogs.    Find Show Notes, Links and Photos at: https://believeindogpodcast.com/episodes-1/episode112   Interested in more about canine enrichment?  Join Erin the Dog  Mom's email list for a resource roundup coming soon.   Support this podcast, subscribe on your favorite app and leave a rating or review.

All Michelle Slater ever wanted was to have a dog of her own with whom she felt a special connection and bond.  And her German Shepherd, Brady, was that dog.  In fact, Michelle even started learning animal communication to enhance her connection with Brady – something that she kept to herself, concerned her fellow professors in academia wouldn't understand or would ridicule. However, after a rollercoaster of adventures, Brady was struck with a life-threatening illness at only 5 years old.  He spent months living at a vet hospital – where Michelle often slept on the floor next to him at night. Michelle again turns to animal communication to guide her – with Brady's input – to make the best decisions for his health during this scary time.  And Brady's profound messages are lessons for all of us. Exploring topics of grief, loss – both human and animal – and the human-animal bond, Michelle's book Soulmate Dog is part memoir and part essay.  If you've ever been curious about how people have viewed animal telepathy over the years, it's fascinating!

Has your dog ever helped you through a hard time in life?  Your answer  is most likely a resounding YES, right? Author Christopher Dale credits Vector, his rescued “sato” dog from Puerto Rico, with helping him start a new chapter in life after going through hard times.  Like really hard times.  Like life-changing medical diagnosis turned depression turned addiction turned nearly blowing up his marriage-type hard times. Chris became curious if other people were having a life-changingly special relationship with their rescue dog too.  In his book “We Saved Each Other: How Rescue Dogs Help Us Through Hardship,” Chris mixes in his own memoir reflections with profiles of other rescue dog adopters to explore experiences such as trauma, grief, addiction and mental health challenges and examine the role of their dogs in their journey. (Trigger warning for ongoing discussion of these themes throughout the episode.) "Courageous Vulnerability" is the phrase I kept thinking while reading "We Saved Each Other".  I admire Chris and all those who share their stories for the vulnerability it takes to share some of the messier parts of life.  And I thank Chris for holding space for me to share a part of my life that I don't usually talk about, as well. Chris also shares with us what he's learned about the condition of sato dogs in Puerto Rico, the work of The Sato Project nonprofit organization and what he knows about Vector's early life. My hope is for this episode to be a reminder that despite our differences, we're all going through the same types of challenges in this human experience.

Have you ever thought about your pet parenting philosophy? Maybe you have an idea in your head of what you want your relationship with your dog(s) to look like, but how would you describe it? A few months ago, on an Amazon recommendation & a whim, I bought Debby McMullen's book How Many Dogs?! Using Positive Reinforcement training to Manage a Multiple Dog Household.  And I loved the book so much, that I had to find Debby and bring her on the podcast. Debby is known for sharing her life with multiple dogs. Working as a dog trainer since the late 1990s, Debby developed a niche in the dog training world helping families introduce & integrate new dogs into multi-dog households. Debby shares – what I will call – her “ pet parenting philosophy” and it's the closest explanation I've seen to how I feel about my relationship with my dogs.  We discuss what this looks like through setting boundaries and the importance of routines & predictability for establishing trust with a new dog in your home. So are you ready to introduce a new dog to your family?  Whether you are or aren't, Debby identifies important body language and training cues that are helpful for any & every pet parent.  We also discuss how to teach your dog good behavior without needing a clicker! Debby & I also dive into the dynamics of multi-dog households – from navigating meal times to giving individual time & attention to refereeing playtime to dealing with any problems that arise. So how many dogs is too many dogs?  While that answer changes from family to family, Debby reveals factors for you & your family to consider when making this decision.

Have you ever wondered what it's like to work with an animal communicator?  This is Part 2 of our family's session with animal communicator, Nancy Mello. In just the past few days, we discovered another one of Nancy's insights about Neno's health is correct! We're jumping back into our session with Nancy where we connected with Neno, Nessie & Penny.  After each segment from Nancy, Tim & I will share our reflections with you about what points resonated with us – or didn't. In Part 2, we'll learn more about newly adopted Nessie – like her biggest fear and insights into the triggers of her reactivity. And about those chickens! During the session, Nancy recommended checking Nessie's ears, and 5 days later Nessie was diagnosed with an ear infection. At the end of the session, we also hear from Penny, our beloved gal who passed suddenly in 2023.  We'll hear what Penny knew about her health condition, what she thinks about Nessie joining our family and if she's seen the portrait of her in our home. Tim also shares his best advice for anyone interested in working with an animal communicator.

Happy 100th Episode!! Have you ever wondered what it's like to work with an animal communicator?   After connecting with Nancy Mello earlier this year, Tim & I decided to book a session with her to see if we could gain some insight into the lack of connection between our old man Neno and newly adopted Nessie.   I was grateful that Nancy allowed us to record the session so we could reference back to it, but it hadn't been my original plan to share this. During our session with Nancy, there were several points that didn't resonate with us at the time. But over the following days and weeks, more of Nancy's insights started to make sense.  (In fact, Nancy recommended checking Nessie's ears, and 5 days after our session Nessie was diagnosed with an ear infection!) Tim & I decided to listen to our recorded session from start to finish and reflect on the statements that didn't make sense at the time but later became a-ha! moments.  So I thought I'd turn on the microphones and capture this for you as I wanted to do something special for the 100th episode – something that I'd never done before. In Part 1, you'll hear Neno and Nessie each share their side of a scuffle that happened in our living room.  Then we check-in with Neno, both physically and emotionally. Tim & I will share our thoughts with you along the way. Check the show notes for the exact photos and information that Nancy received prior to our session.

Today we uncover the disturbing reality behind "The Brick Bible," a so-called illustrated "Lego" Bible aimed at children. Despite being distributed at vacation Bible schools and marketed to believers as containing scripture, this book was actually created by a transgender atheist. We delve into its skewed perspective on faith and its ironic commentary on Old Testament stories, revealing how it attempts to argue against the God of the Bible rather than guide anyone toward Him. We also dive into one of our more controversial topics: pets over kids. We answer some of your pressing questions about why pets are not as important as our own children. Why do people celebrate being childless over starting families? Why are some picking first-class travel over family life? Additionally, we discuss the most effective strategy to combat the Kamala Harris campaign.

It feels like we're finally at a time in society when pet loss grief is starting to be acknowledged and resources are becoming more readily available.  But do we really know how to take care of ourselves and others in times of pet loss?  Do you know how to give good grief? We're joined by Mindy Meiering, LCSW, a licensed therapist, life coach, and mindfulness teacher who specializes in grief and loss. Even though Mindy has supported thousands of clients and families through major losses and life transitions, she was blindsided by how devastated she felt after losing her first dog, Ellie. Calling upon all the tools and resources she learned, Mindy created the Rainbow Bridge Pet Loss Deck to support pet parents grieving the loss of a beloved companion. Mindy and I discuss the best self-care practices in times of our own loss as well as the best ways we can show up for our friends & family who are grieving.  We also talk about unconventional types of loss including a lost pet, rehoming a pet and situations of behavioral euthanasia. While many of us have heard of the Five Stages of Grief, a recent book examines the concept of a 6th stage of grief – finding meaning in your loss.  Mindy and I examine ways we've found meaning in our own pet loss grief and how you can do this in your own life and in your own way.

Having a positive mindset and not letting negativity affect us is important as an entrepreneur. Starting a business is tough; it will take your time and resources. Having strong mental fortitude is crucial because you don't want to fail just because you listened to others. You can dictate how you will run your business, and that is the power you have to change the business for better or worse. Today's special guest is Hema Reddy, founder of Crafty Counter, started her journey in 2018 with a mission to provide parents with high-quality, convenient, minimally processed, and delicious food options. Initially creating WunderNuggets, a variety of vegetarian and blended protein nuggets, she shifted focus in 2020 after learning about the environmental and ethical issues in poultry farming. This led to the company becoming 100% plant-based, launching WunderBites, and ultimately, in 2022, creating WunderEggs—a plant-based egg alternative. WunderEggs, which won the "Best New Meat Alternative 2022" award, launched at Whole Foods in January 2023 and continues to expand nationwide, aligning with Reddy's mission to nourish both bodies and the planet without compromise.

In Part 2 with Chris Hannah (Dog Dad to Cole the Deaf Dog), I share my observation that not only is Cole a special dog, but that Chris is a special human to have the emotional bandwidth to hold space for the many people he encounters during their therapy work.  Chris explains how Cole's influence has shown him parts of himself that he didn't know he had. We discuss the powerful experience of volunteering at a hospice facility supporting patients and their families during the most difficult time.  Chris reflects on some of the more memorable encounters with patients, as well as students that he & Cole have helped through difficult times – including the pandemic. Chris reveals his hopes and plans for the future and also shares with us the incredible media opportunities and awards of recognition that he & Cole have received.  From Good Morning America, Rachel Ray, Access Hollywood, Entertainment Tonight and Lester Holt to being the first deaf dog to receive a Hero Dog Award.  Oh Em Gee! (Ahem, *cough* Kelly Clarkson next?!) But while this attention has been thrilling and surreal for Chris, it's also come with a dark side – online harassment and bullying due to Cole's breed. Chris tells the toll this has taken on him and the precautions he now must take.

Sometimes a dog comes along, and nothing is ever the same again – in the best way possible!  In 2017, when Chris Hannah decided it was time to adopt a dog, he didn't realize exactly how much of a life-changing of a decision this would be. Chris shares with us why adopting a deaf dog was the obvious choice for him – even when it might sound like a surprising decision for a music teacher to make.  And yes, Cole the Deaf Dog's name was inspired by the movie Mr. Holland's Opus (the deaf son of a music teacher). From day one, Chris witnessed the impact Cole made on his students and everyone he meets.  Learning about Cole's disability opened an unexpected dialogue for children (and adults too!) that disabilities aren't inabilities – and sometimes those qualities that make us different are our superpowers. Cole's presence in students' lives even led Chris' school to launch a unique emotional-social learning program. Chris and Cole also created a motivational school assembly program for other schools in their region. In Part One of Chris and Cole's story, we'll also hear about the surprising challenges they faced for Cole to become a therapy dog and about their meaningful work with a Veterans' Memorial Home.

Have you ever wondered how a simple laugh can change the entire dynamic between you and your dog? Laughter is known for its stress-relieving qualities among humans, but its effects are just as impactful on our dogs. When you laugh, you emit signals of safety and joy that can help calm and reassure your dog. Laughter acts like a reset button during stressful situations. It helps to reassure your dog that there's nothing to worry about, calming their nerves and transforming a potentially tense situation into a moment of bonding. In this episode, we explore how laughter can not only diffuse tense situations but also prevent them from escalating. Here's a brief overview of what we covered: The Science Behind Laughter: We discuss how laughter acts as a natural stress reliever for both humans and dogs, fostering a relaxed and joyful environment. Real-Life Stories: I share personal anecdotes demonstrating how laughter has helped turn potentially challenging situations with my dogs into moments of bonding and understanding. Practical Tips: You'll learn simple yet effective ways to incorporate laughter into your daily interactions with your dog, enhancing communication and strengthening your bond. Expert Insights: We also touch on scientific insights and expert opinions that support the use of laughter as a tool for better canine communication.
