Do pets suffer from a mid-life crisis?
Update: 2025-07-27
Description
Dot Baisly, Executive Director of the International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants (IAABC) talks about why this organization stands strongly behind their science-based positive reinforcement approaches to dog training, and against the use of devices like shock collars. She also explains that IAABC certification isn’t only about dogs, there are also certified experts in equine and feline behavior, as well as for shelter animals. Learn more here.
Do pets suffer from a mid-life crisis? If so, what does that mean? Dr. Kelly Fishman explains that the six-year old dog isn’t about to sniff out a Porsche, but does note this portion of a pet’s life – pre old age and well past puppy or kitten isn’t investigated often. And what pet parents can do to be proactive, which will make transitioning into old age healthier for the pet.
A new reason, and a compelling one to keep dogs on-leash.
