TRIGGER WARNING - This episode contains graphic details and emotions regarding euthanizing a pet due to severe aggression. Both Em and Lana, get very real and very emotional. This is not an episode for children and maybe not one to listen to at work, at least not without headphones.
Being a dog guardian comes with a lot of responsibility and a lot of tough decisions. From start to finish the dog’s life and well-being is in YOUR hands. This includes having to make the very difficult decision to let your pet go when things start to go very wrong.
On this episode of Straight Up Dog Talk, Lana, and Em both share personal stories about having a dog with idiopathic aggression, also known as rage syndrome. This condition is NOT treatable and is in the best interest of all parties to take action to make sure that everyone remains safe.
Unfortunately due to the lack of education and information available on this topic people don’t know what to do in these situations. We are here to tell you that you are NOT alone and you have support. If you are experiencing situations like the ones in this episode, please do not hesitate to ask for help if needed. Our mission is to educate on this topic so that other people are not suffering in silence.

Did you know that at just ONE shelter in California this year over 2200 dogs have been euthanized due to overcrowding?
This is a harsh reality in the world of rescue. Some dogs make it out with minutes to spare but a vast majority are being euthanized due to minor behavioral and health issues, simply because there is no space.
On today’s episode of Straight Up Dog Talk, Mattison will tell us what it looks like behind the rescue/shelter doors. Not only will she explain WHY this is happening but she will also give you recommendations on how YOU can help by donating time instead of money.
This is a crisis situation and the problem isn’t going to go away overnight. We need to work together and put a stop to contributing factors like backyard breeding and hoarding.
