Please think about the pets in your area before setting off fireworks. So many can get seriously injured and suffer great emotional trauma from the weeks of random noises. If you must celebrate please use the silent ones, or go to a display. This at least give caregivers a time scale and they can prepare. Our pets, wildlife and livestock don’t deserve this, not to mention the many different people and children who also suffer this time of year.

Daniel Shaw — Exploring the Experience of Trauma from a Dogs Perspective:

Trauma in dogs, much like in humans, can leave deep psychological scars that affect behaviour and well-being. By examining trauma through a dog's eyes, we gain valuable insights into their emotional world, revealing how past experiences shape their responses to stress and fear. Understanding these perspectives not only enhances our ability to provide compassionate care but also underscores the importance of patience and empathy in the healing process. This exploration helps bridge the gap between human and canine experiences, fostering a deeper connection and promoting more effective support for our four-legged companions.

Sowjanya Vijayanagar - Luna's Journey with Trauma

I began my journey to become a canine professional in 2018 when I attended BHARCS Canine Essential 101 taught by Sindhoor Pangal. I was introduced to an amazing school of thought helmed by Turid Rugaas where the emphasis was on showing empathy and compassion to our dogs. It was important to understand that they are sentient beings, just like us humans, and have a complex emotional spectrum.

​

In April 2019, I started my Canine Behaviour and Ethology diploma (BACBED) from BHARCS and 19 months later, I am now a certified Canine Behaviour Consultant. I am also an Associate Member of Pet Dog Trainers of Europe (PDTE), founded in 1998 by Norwegian dog expert Turid Rugaas.

I hope to work with as many dogs and dog parents and help in creating a wonderful relationship, which as a dog parent myself, is our hope and end goal!

I also believe that learning never ends and I hope to keep adding to my skills and knowledge which will help me immensely in the work I do with dogs.

I have to credit this life of mine to my two dogs, Sammy and Zoey, who were the reason I began learning more about dogs. They have stood by me, have been patient through my mistakes and they truly are my teachers.
