Featuring special guest holistic psychologist Birdy O'Sheedy

In this episode the girls are joined by holistic psychologist
Birdy O'Sheedy who talks us through the emotional impacts of
having a dog with separation anxiety and how to deal with it.
Having a dog with separation anxiety is stressful, frustrating
and oftentimes just heartbreaking and Birdy provides some tips on
how to deal with the emotional rollercoaster that comes with
it. 


Birdy is an accredited clinical psychologist and qualified dog
trainer who specialises in the human at the end of the lead. She
also has a dog which had severe separation anxiety and needed an
extensive behavioural modification program so she is coming from
a position of understanding and empathy. Since her dog overcame
his anxiety, she has been fascinated by how dogs impact the
emotional wellbeing of dog owners, especially when the
circumstances are challenging. 


Birdy hosts international workshops called "My Dog- My Teacher"
and teaches dog owners the B.R.A.V.E formula to help them
troubleshoot and navigate challenging situations in their
relationship with their dog, whilst increasing the wellbeing of
the dog, and the dog owner.
