From a Chow/German Shepherd mix with persistent indoor accidents to a Labrador puppy who thinks children are chew toys, this episode of Animal Talk dives deep into the fascinating and sometimes perplexing world of animal behavior. When that adorable puppy grows into an adolescent dog with behavioral challenges, knowing exactly how to respond makes all the difference. Our experts explain why crate training isn't just about preventing accidents—it's about creating security and structure that benefits both you and your pet. As one host wisely notes, "Housebreaking is a two-step process: learning where not to go, then learning where to go." This simple framework transforms how pet parents approach common training hurdles. The heart-tugging reality of wildlife rescue takes center stage when a listener calls about a baby squirrel she found. While the desire to help is admirable, our team offers a sobering perspective on the challenges of caring for wildlife without proper training. From feeding schedules every two hours to specialized techniques for helping them eliminate waste, the discussion provides valuable insight for anyone who might encounter distressed wildlife. For those with more exotic companions, we tackle questions about snake health post-surgery and the impossibility of crossing certain reptile species. The team shares their golden rule of pet health that applies across all species: "If you don't know whether to call about something, it means you should." This simple yet powerful advice could save your pet's life, whether they're furry, feathered, or scaled. Ready to transform your understanding of animal behavior and become a more confident pet parent? Listen now, and don't forget to subscribe for more expert advice that will deepen your connection with the animals in your life. Have a pet question of your own?

Jamie Flanagan @DJJamieDetroit AnimalTalkRadio.com @AnimalTalkRadio Thanks for listening and as always... Have an exotic week and kiss your wild thing for me. Send your pet photos in now and we will add your fur kids to the #PetParade. jamie@animaltalkradio.com Did you know that over half of pet owners admit to kissing their furry companions, and a third confess to talking to them on the phone? These surprising statistics reveal just how deeply connected we are to our animal family members - but this close bond sometimes leads us down dangerous paths. We share the sobering story of a cat named Cuddles who nearly died after her owner administered "baby Tylenol" based on internet advice claiming it was safe. This cautionary tale highlights why consulting your veterinarian is always better than trusting Dr. Google with your pet's health. The internet might be the information superhighway, but it's also the misinformation superhighway when it comes to pet care. For small animal owners, we dive into budget-friendly bedding alternatives like shredded newspaper that work just as well as expensive pet store options. Just remember to avoid cedar and pine shavings, which contain toxic oils that can harm your little critters. Dog behavior takes center stage as we tackle everything from inappropriate sniffing to handling potential aggression. When your dog greets visitors with an embarrassing crotch inspection, the solution isn't punishment but training alternative greeting behaviors. And if you encounter an unfamiliar dog while walking, we provide potentially life-saving advice: avoid eye contact, turn sideways, remain still, and never run or scream - actions that could trigger a chase response. Whether you're looking for the perfect breed match for your family or trying to navigate challenging pet behaviors, our decades of experience help cut through the noise to give you practical, reliable guidance.
