Shownotes

When stress becomes chronic, both dogs and humans can get stuck in a constant state of vigilance. In this episode, we explore how stress impacts the brain across species—changing behavior, learning, emotional regulation, and our ability to feel safe. By understanding the shared neurobiology of stress in dogs and people, we can shift away from blame and toward compassion, regulation, and healing.
