Episode 64 â Children and Pets Part 1
Are you an expecting parent waiting to bring a new baby into a home with existing pets?
Or perhaps you are a pet care professional looking for the best advice to give to new or expecting parents about introducing a new baby to their pets?
The reason you are worried about this is because youâre not sure of the best way to approach this.
And the reason you are feeling stressed and anxious is because you feel guilty about disrupting your petâs routine or not being able to pay them as much attention as before.
This is all completely normal, and you will absolutely be able to manage this, with a little advice from myself and Nora.
As a mom of 2 young girls as well as 2 cats, Nora gives us her top tips on integrating new babies into a home of already existing kitty cats (with lots of transferrable information for doggie homes too!)
She chats about the importance of early preparation, the important role that dads play when the baby first comes home and how to navigate the feelings of guilt that can arise when a new momâs time and routines are turned on their heads.
We also talk about how important it is to be able to read canine and feline body language to understand how the pets might be feeling because of these changes in their homes and routines.

Here are some of the things youâll take away from this episode:
1. How to remove some of the barriers that might be holding you back from offering behaviour consultations in YOUR practice.
2. That behaviour consultations donât have to be super lengthy in order to make a difference to your client and patient.
3. How a really short and simple questionnaire can prompt your clients to talk about behaviour problems during routine veterinary visits.
4. Why sensitivity, compassion, deep listening and thoughtful questioning are essential skills in any consultation.

I really hope this episode gives you some food for thought and some inspiration to perhaps build mental and emotional healthcare into your everyday practice.
Here are the resources I mention during the episode (and where you can find that super short and simple questionnaire):

Episode 61 â Canine Cognitive Skills - with Kay Attwood
I absolutely loved recording this episode with Kay!
Cognition and Cognitive Skills are so important when it comes to behavioural health, and I often use cognitive exercises as part of my treatment plans in order to teach coping skills as well as help dogs process better by accessing brain areas associated with cognition rather than brain areas associated with emotional reactivity or âfight or flightâ states.
In this episode, Kay introduces us to her brand-new book âCanine Cognitive Skillsâ in which she teaches us about her âbrain gamesâ and how to use them for our own dogs and our patients!
This is a book for doggies of all ages, pet owners and pet care professionals alike and should be on your bookshelf if you want to learn more about canine cognition!
Have a listen to these 2 related Pet Behaviour Chat Episodes on Canine and Feline Cognitive decline here and here !

Episode 60 â Romanian Rescue Dogs â Amelia and Elâs Story
Amelia and her wonderful caregiver El are amongst my very favourite client and patient and I chat to El on the 3 year anniversary of us starting to work together!
Amelia is a rescue dog from Romania who was transported across land to the UK to be with her new doggie mom and caregiver El in 2021.
Listen to Elâs incredible story of when Amelia first came to her as a very frightened pup and how she managed to win her trust and allow her to become her perfect canine partner.
In Elâs words, it has been and continues to be quite the journey, however, the care, dedication, open-mindedness and personal growth and sacrifice that El has shown over the last years is absolutely mind-blowing.
This is definitely a conversation you wonât want to miss and gives so much hope and inspiration to anyone who may be living with a dog with past trauma and severe fears and anxieties.
I am so very proud of these two wonderful souls, and I hope you enjoy their story as much as I have enjoyed accompanying and supporting them.

Episode 59 â Detomidine OTM Gel â The perfect PVP Protocol for Zack!
I really wanted to share Zackâs story as I get asked so many questions about how best to handle very fearful and potentially aggressive canine patients in the veterinary setting.
The answer is - there is no simple or blanket answer â and every patient must be treated and considered as an individual.
It helps, of course, if you have many different tools in your toolbox and you have the knowledge and experience to use these tools wisely and to select the right tool for the right patient.
In Zackâs case this was detomidine oral trans-mucosal gel, an equine sedative that can absolutely be safely used in dogs, if you know how.
Zackâs caregiver was able to apply the gel while playing with Zack before he came to the clinic, and I was then easily able to administer an intra-muscular sedative to facilitate the examination and veterinary care he needed.
Here are the papers on the use of detomidine OTM gel in dogs originally published by Dr Hopfensperger in 2013 and 2016, but the doses in these have been superseded in a recent abstract, which was presented at the Veterinary Behaviour Symposium in 2023.
1. Hopfensperger, M. J., Messenger, K. M., Papich, M. G., & Sherman, B. L. (2013). The use of oral transmucosal detomidine hydrochloride gel to facilitate handling in dogs. Journal of Veterinary Behavior: Clinical Applications and Research, 8(3), 114â123. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jveb.2012.10.004
2. Messenger, K. M., Hopfensperger, M., Knych, H. K., & Papich, M. G. (2016). Pharmacokinetics of detomidine following intravenous or oral-transmucosal administration and sedative effects of the oral-transmucosal treatment in dogs.

Episode 58 â A conversation with Dr Hannah Capon â Pain, Behaviour, Dealing with Chronic Disease and so much moreâŠ
This has got to be one of my most favourite conversations on The Pet Behaviour Chat so far.
Dr Hannah Capon is the founder of UK based Canine Arthritis Management â www.caninearthitis.co.uk â and an absolute powerhouse when it comes to advocating for pets, especially dogs, with osteoarthritis and other chronic pain conditions and supporting their caregivers in the diagnosis and management of these serious diseases.
This conversation delves into so much more thoughâŠ
Hannah and I chat about the similarities between Chronic Pain Management and Veterinary Behaviour Medicine, the very real Caregiver Burden that is faced by both pet owners and veterinary professionals alike, we both speak about our own personal experiences with Burnout throughout our careers and we consider the way forwards and what needs to change when thinking about managing chronic diseases in our pets.
This is such an inspirational conversation that touches on the need for good Coaching Skills, re-thinking veterinary appointments and veterinary clinical spaces and what can be done in the future to support both caregivers and veterinary professionals dealing with chronic diseases better.

Episode 56 â The Importance of Enrichment and Behavioural Diversity
Enrichment and Behavioural Diversity are 2 buzzwords that are used quite frequently when it comes to providing our pets with opportunities to express their behavioural needs.
In this episode, Ilse and I chat about what Enrichment and Behavioural Diversity actually are and whether the term âenrichmentâ is appropriate for what we should be providing for our pets on a daily basis.
We also talk about different types of âenrichmentâ as well as how these fit into not only our Behaviour Treatment Plans, but also our petsâ everyday lives.
You will be able to take away instant practical tips and solutions for YOUR petâs or patientâs wellbeing, which you can implement immediately.
Here is what we talk about:
1. Why âenrichmentâ might not be the best term when it comes to our petsâ behavioural needs.
2. How different forms of âenrichmentâ can provide different outlets for behaviour.
3. Why âcontra freeloadingâ is an important concept to know about.
4. How social enrichment is different for different species.
5. How different types of enrichment can overlap to provide multiple benefits all at once.

Episode 54 â Street Cats â Should we âRescueâ or âHomeâ them?
This is a big topic with many opinions to consider from different stakeholders.
Nora and I chat about our experiences of this topic here in the UAE and about some of the cases we have seen where cats that previously lived on the street were brought into homes and developed Behaviour Problems as a result.
We also chat about the unique characteristics of the Arabian Mau cat that is found in this part of the world and how their unique-ness affects their behavioural needs.
I talk about genetics, epigenetics and how the socialization period may affect some of these patients and Nora tells us all about her Arabian Mau cat, Freddie, and what he taught her.
Find out also how the â5 Freedomsâ framework helps us assess the welfare of our patients.
We understand that this is a controversial topic and that there are no right or wrong answers, however, we do need to always consider the welfare and quality of life of all our patients and indeed that animals that we invite into our homes and lives.
Here is the resource that I mention in the episode:

Episode 53 â Separation Anxiety â To crate or not to crate, that is the question
Welcome to the first episode in this second year of The Pet Behaviour Chat Podcast!
This episode was inspired by a Facebook post I saw in one of our local dog groups where an alarming number of people advised the poster, who has a dog showing Separation Related Behaviours to âjust get a crate for the dog and put it in the crate when you are away from the homeâ.
This approach has so many potential pitfalls and could actually do more harm than good when it comes to the welfare of the dog in question.
Have a listen to this episode where I chat through my thoughts on this issue and highlight the potential problems that could arise from recommendations such as this one.
Donât get me wrong, a crate or a safe space *may* be an option for some dogs, but it is not ok to just make blanket statements or recommendations such as this when the details of the case are not fully known.
Listen as I chat through:
1. The importance of obtaining an accurate diagnosis
2. The importance of the dog feeling comfortable in a crate
3. The underlying mental and emotional health implications and motivations
4. Why blanket statements such as this can actually make things worse
5. How we, as Veterinary Behaviourists, always consider the long-term health and longevity of a good quality life for the pets in our care
Here are some of the resources I mention in the episode:
1. King, J. N., Simpson, B. S., Overall, K. L., Appleby, D., Pageat, P., Ross, C., Chaurand, J. P., Heath, S., Beata, C., Weiss, A. B., Muller, G., Paris, T., Bataille, B.

Muzzles are an essential part of any dogâs toolkit, whether they have ever shown aggressive behaviours or not.
Whether for safety or in emergencies, muzzles can be extremely valuable and sometimes life-saving pieces of equipment for your dog.
In this episode, Dr Katrin and Ilse chat through real life scenarios, discuss the right kind of muzzle and perfect muzzle fit for your dog and chat you through the basics of teaching your dog to wear a muzzle comfortably and with confidence.
You will also learn how Dr Katrin and Ilse use muzzles with their Behaviour Patients and why, in Dr Katrinâs opinion, muzzles should NEVER be used for cats.

Episode 45 â Feline House Soiling â What You Need To Know!
This is a topic we are SO passionate about.
In a study by Salman et. al. (see below), 28% of cats who were relinquished to shelters were relinquished for behavioural reasons, and of those 28%, 43% were relinquished for house soiling.
While this is a distressing situation for cats and caregivers alike, we actually have a really good chance of successfully treating these cases, as long as we take the path to getting to the correct diagnosis.
In this episode, Dr Katrin gives you her approach to categorizing the different causes of feline house soiling and how we can differentiate between the different presentations to find the correct diagnosis and treatment plan.
In this episode you will learn:
1. The normal stages of kitten development and elimination
2. Possible physical health contributions to Feline House Soiling
3. How to differentiate between Urine Marking and Elimination presentations
4. Where FIC (Feline Idiopathic Cystitis) fits into the puzzle
5. Why addressing stress is vital in all cases of Feline House Soiling
Here are the resources Dr Katrin mentions in this episode:
