In this episode, Nikki and Britteny talk about a recent article talking about dog's "naughty" behavior. Nikki talks about the myths and how you can help your dog correct any "naughty" behavior you may see.

In this episode, Amanda joins Nikki after a (too) long break to discuss what it feels like to recover from a spay, regulating our emotions to help our dogs, communication with a different species, and about digging deeper into the whole of a dog to understand the symptoms.

It's a little bit of a hodge podge of information; but it feels great to be back talking to all of you DogSpeak Geeks!
