January 21, 2025 Consequences of Captivity with Kim Brophey
So many behavior problems in our dogs are simply consequences of their life as captive animals.

In this dynamic conversation between Sarah and Kim they discuss this reality and what we can do about it.

January 14, 2025 Household Harmony: It's Up to YOU
Sarah is passionate about harmonious relationships between dogs in homes. Maintaining and fostering peace between highly driven individuals is not simple and something she takes very seriously. One thing that is missing in the thoughts of many professionals and guardians alike is the level of responsibility we should be placing on ourselves as the person who decided to integrate the dogs we acquired. Learn specifics about what this looks like and then some.

December 31, 2024 Heal Them, Heal Us: Go Outside
The research is clear: being outside is good for us. And it is good for our dogs, too. When we know this to be true–with or without empirical data–why do we still find it so hard? Are there solutions to this? Is this actually worth doing? Isn’t a quick stroll around the block better than nothing? Vow in 2025 to go outside more with your dog; you will not regret it.

December 24, 2024 Heal Them, Heal Us: Eat. Drink. Be Merry.
Disordered eating is normalized in our society and it is normalized in our dogs, too. Dogs should want to eat. Their GI should function normally. These are not radical statements, and yet most dogs Sarah sees in her private behavior work have some kind of damaged relationship to food. Dig into why this happens and what we can do about it. Then eat, drink, and be merry yourself on this holiday.

December 17, 2024 Heal Them, Heal Us: Slow Down
We live in a fast-paced society and therefore, so do our dogs. As a consequence of selective breeding, training, and just plain captivity, our dogs do not access “calm” states well. We all need a little slow school from time to time. So take a deep breath, sit down, and listen to this one.
