When the issue is stuck in the tissue it means that the animal’s body is stuck in a trigger mode. Imagine the animal’s point of view, the moment of shock when you are walking up to your person and all you see is a big boot that kicks you away. Or, the big dog that comes toward you with his furry posse, pushing you into a corner until you were cowering and shaking. These experiences leave a mark, a blueprint in your dog’s body. And the issue that is stuck in the tissue has usually two ways of expressing itself. Offensive or defensive. Extroverted or introverted. Bark, snap and bite, or cower, crumble, and hide. What can you do to help your dog to move past the trauma? Listen in!
