Why is it sometimes difficult to find a vet who will perform a behavioral euthanasia?  What role should your trainer play in your dog's behavioral euthanasia?    For more information about Scott and Jess and their strategies or to book an online consult for behavioral issues, please check out: https://caninehealing.com   To work with Jess virtually to troubleshoot performance sport issues, click: http://www.k9healing.com/ct   To view The Quirky Dog's website and a full catalog of episodes, visit: https://www.thequirkydog.com   To work with Scott and Jess in person within their service area (Portland, ME to Boston, MA to Manchester, NH), email them at studio@thequirkydog.com   Have you ever wondered why your dog behaves a certain way?

This week, Jess and Scott discuss the concept of everyone being on the same page or not. Many trainers will claim that you will never successfully train your dog unless everyone in the household has the same criteria for the dog, but this episode explains why that isn't necessarily the case.   How can a family succeed with their dog if everyone isn't following the same protocols?   Why is it important each family member have his or her own set of criteria of what he or she expects from the dog?   Is it confusing to the dog if everyone doesn't have the same expectations of behavior?   For more information about Scott and Jess and their strategies or to book an online consult for behavioral issues, please check out: https://caninehealing.com   To work with Jess virtually to troubleshoot performance sport issues, click: http://www.k9healing.com/ct   To view The Quirky Dog's website and a full catalog of episodes, visit: https://www.thequirkydog.com   To work with Scott and Jess in person within their service area (Portland, ME to Boston, MA to Manchester, NH), email them at studio@thequirkydog.com   Have you ever wondered why your dog behaves a certain way?

This week, Jess and Scott discuss the reality that a dog isn't necessarily a good fit for every household. If you are a young family with kids and do not have a lot of extra time, a dog may simply add to the chaos.

How do dogs affect life's logistics? Who are the best resources to help for a smooth transition?    For more information about Scott and Jess and their strategies or to book an online consult for behavioral issues, please check out: https://caninehealing.com     To work with Jess virtually to troubleshoot performance sport issues, click: http://www.k9healing.com/ct     To view The Quirky Dog's website and a full catalog of episodes, visit: https://www.thequirkydog.com     To work with Scott and Jess in person within their service area (Portland, ME to Boston, MA to Manchester, NH), email them at studio@thequirkydog.com     Have you ever wondered why your dog behaves a certain way?

This week, Jess and Scott discuss questioning your veterinarian or behaviorist before you begin administering a prescribed drug to your dog, especially as it relates to behavior. Big Pharma has a clear agenda that has recently been spilling over from the human world into the dog world. Of course while many drugs can be lifesavers and greatly enhance one's quality of life, maybe we shouldn't we be so quick to give our dogs psychotropic medications.    Who should you consult when considering medicating your dog for behavior issues?   How do you determine if your dog is a good candidate for psychiatric medication?    What are some possible side effects of these common psychiatric medications for dogs?   For more information about Scott and Jess and their strategies or to book an online consult for behavioral issues, please check out: https://caninehealing.com     To work with Jess virtually to troubleshoot performance sport issues, click: http://www.k9healing.com/ct     To view The Quirky Dog's website and a full catalog of episodes, visit: https://www.thequirkydog.com     To work with Scott and Jess in person within their service area (Portland, ME to Boston, MA to Manchester, NH), email them at studio@thequirkydog.com     Have you ever wondered why your dog behaves a certain way?
