Episode 29 – Stress – what is it and why is it important for our pets?

Stress is a big topic – not only in pets but also us humans and having a good understanding of what it is and how it affects us can be really important.

Stress is actually a totally normal and important response, which keeps us safe and working in an optimal state – both physically as well as mentally and emotionally.

Dr Katrin explains the physiological stress hormone cascades and how they can be dysregulated to cause “toxic” or “chronic” stress, which can be detrimental to overall health.

She also chats about the “stress bucket”, a visual representation of what she hopes to achieve when putting together a treatment plan and a really tangible way for pet caregivers to look at stress in their pets.

We really hope you enjoy this episode; it is packed with so much information!
