Laura Monaco Torelli KPA-CTP, CPDT-KA The Bitey End of the Dog

This is a very special episode for this podcast as Laura Monaco Torelli joins me to share her personal and poignant experience from a traumatic dog attack that occurred two years ago.
 I want to thank Laura for trusting me as a friend and colleague to have a safe space to talk about the terrifying events from that day.

I also want to give a trigger warning for this episode as we discuss a dog attack that resulted in injuries to both Laura and her beloved dog Vito. We don’t often discuss the impact on victims of dog bites, so our hope is that this show will provide some solace that you are not alone.  If you have experienced trauma from a dog bite incident, there is help available, and there is a link below for emotional and crisis support.
