Behavior Buzzzzzz with 2 Amys
We're your sassy hosts, Dr. Amy L. Pike and Dr. Amy Learn, A.K.A...THE AMYS! As Board Certified Veterinary Behaviorists, we understand the challenges of pet guardianship. Every day we diagnose and treat behavior problems. And, every day we help pets and their people navigate the sea of confusing, misleading, and downright false information swirling around on the internet and social media.
We provide clinical insight into underlying causes of behavior problems, make cynical sense of nonsense, disprove myths, and promote positive, trusting human/animal relationships.
We're dedicated to modern, science-based intervention without the use of pain, fear, force, or intimidation. It is our mission to drive comprehensive pet wellness to the forefront of veterinary medicine and mainstream pet culture. JOIN US and the HIVE MIND, to set the record straight on the hottest and most controversial topics we encounter as clinicians, educators, and guardians.
Behavior Buzzzzzz with 2 Amys
Emotional First Aid for Pet Parents
Animal well-being starts with HUMAN well-being. Parenting a reactive dog can be emotionally exhausting — not just for the dog, but for the humans who love and train them. In this episode, The Amys welcome licensed professional counselor and founder of Handlers and Humans, Jess Adam, who specializes in coaching and supporting trainers and guardians of reactive dogs. They discuss the significant stigma and emotional strain guardians often face, and, tools and strategies for promoting self-care while helping reactive dogs thrive.
It’s time to shake off the stigma, grab a cocktail, and get up to speed on the latest buzzzzzz, courtesy of your favorite VBees 🐝🐝, on the latest episode of Behavior Buzzzzzz with 2 Amys veterinary behavior podcast.
