Description

In this episode, Deb from Busy Pawz opens up about what life has really been like lately—with six dogs, shifting energy, and a nervous system that’s barely hanging in there. If your dog has felt extra reactive, sensitive, or just off lately… you’re not imagining it.

We explore how unsettled energy in the world (and in our homes) impacts our dogs, why calmness doesn’t always mean control, and what “back to basics” support can look like when things get messy.

✨ You’ll learn:

  • Why your dog might be reacting more than usual right now

  • What “calm” actually looks like for different dogs

  • How to gently reset your routines without guilt

  • Why regulating your nervous system matters more than you think

  • Practical examples of supporting sensitive or reactive dogs during high-stress times

This is an honest, compassionate episode for anyone navigating a wobbly season. You’re not failing. You’re adapting. And your dog is doing the best they can, too.
