Is your dog “well-behaved” but oddly disconnected—or do they shut down in new situations instead of reacting? In this episode, we’re diving into how to help your dog recover.

You’ll learn how to rebuild trust, encourage natural expression, and create a safe environment where your dog can begin to communicate freely again. We’ll also explore holistic tools to support emotional healing and why honoring your dog’s timeline is the key to lasting progress.

Whether you're just beginning to recognize the signs of suppression or you're already walking the path toward healing, this episode offers practical steps and compassionate insight for supporting your dog’s emotional well-being.
