Jess the Impaler   If you have a dog you may want to rethink listening to this we delve into the military SuperDog Biosensor program and learn about how to create resilience and longevity and of course compare dogs to humans and some other stuff including a Romanian curse that turned out to be passed down in the blood (or did it?)

In this episode Jess and Dawn talk about trauma in dogs and humans after Jess has been somewhat challenged by an online course on dogs in trauma (read that as it's being doing her head in!)

We talked about humans projecting their emotions onto dogs and question whether it is possible for people like you and I (but not Jess) to see dogs as animals rather than little people. 

Socialising what does it really mean and how should you do it effectively (obviously this bit is about dogs) 

We discuss what people get from having a dog and how the need for connection can be the very thing that can lead to serious behaviour issues in dogs.  

We talk about communication and how Jess can deal with something being so obvious to her, but not to the dog guardians and how she can counter her need to be brutally blunt!

There is a general discussion about memory and how it works

After another attack this week by an XL Bully, Jess and Dawn discuss dog breeds and what can be done about more and more people being killed and savaged by ‘family pets’

Guest Rob Lowe joins Jess Probst and Dawn Walton to talk about dog training. Are fear and aggression the same thing? Is there such a thing as fear-aggression?
