We don't talk enough about the grief that comes with a break up. We also don't truly know the pain of losing a dog until it happens to you.
What about losing a dog during a break up...? That is a pain only a few understand. But then there is the other side of it. You keep the dog but they lose a very special person in their life. Perhaps your dog lost a furry sibling.
On Part Five of the dogs & dating series we take a turn and talk about something not everyone can relate to but that hits home for a lot of people. Breaking up With Dogs.
Sydney is dog mom extraordinaire to THREE dogs. All with reactivity struggles to some degree and she is absolutely nailing it. Her day to day is not perfect but she does so well taking care of her dogs. She has also gone through.... a lot. Sydney shares her (two) experiences of break ups that involve dogs. Losing a dog... her dog going through heart break and overcoming those obstacles.
This is the final instalment of the dogs & dating series.
Part one: The Dog Father (the dog dad perspective)
Part two: Dogless & Dating (the female perspective)
Part three: Dating Dog Moms
Part four: How to Date a Dog Mom
Next week: Taking a break for your mental health. Its dark out by 4pm. You're exhausted. Your dogs reactivity has taken a turn. You are at your wits end.
Take. A. Break.
You still matter. Your mental health matters.
I get to have a wonderful unplanned conversation with dog mom Cait about taking a break for your mental health. Which I think is very timely over the holidays when everyone is uber stressed and stretched thin.
This will be the final episode of Season Two because truth be told. I need a break as well.
Join the conversation! Send me a message :)
