Why Does My Pet Do That? An Animal Communication Perspective on Common Pet Problems

Welcome back to Season 7 of Let's Talk to Animals, the podcast all species can enjoy together!

As pet parents, we have such high hopes when we choose our pet and bring them into our world and family. When things are going well, it is easy to take credit for that. When things are not going well, it is easy to blame ourselves and spiral into anxiety, fear or even hopelessness. Animal communication offers a different perspective for the question of “why does my pet do that?,” whether the issue is simply a pet who is staring at us or a pet who is visibly acting out or reacting in ways that don’t work well for them or for us.

In this episode, I take you on a journey of answering the “why does my pet do that” question as seen through the eyes of three dogs, all miniature Australian shepherds, who share a common goal but handle it in very different ways and for very different reasons.

As you listen, you will learn….

• The different layers to look at when trying to decode a confusing or distressing pet behavior
• The role that species and breed can play in why our pets act the way that they do.
• How our own “tinkering” into breed genetics can create really difficult lives for our pets.
• The influence of nature vs nurture (genetics vs environment) in shaping pet behavior
• How to know when to look deeper than a physical health issue into mental or emotional drivers for pet behavior
• The influence of your soul agreement with your pet and two key relational triggers for problem pet behaviors
• When to add holistic care to the mix to help a pet cope and some ideas for where to start
• The vital role that only animal communication can fill in helping your pet work through challenges and realize their full soul potential in your family
• And so much more.
