Episode 18: Canine Caregivers - Should We Give Our Dogs Bones?

Dominique Hone of Canine Caregivers joins me again for another Canine Caregivers episode.In this episode we discuss "Should We Give Our Dogs Bones?"
Somehow, this topic seems to have been so discussed and over thought that it's become a messy topic and you'll get a different opinion from most people you ask. There's some fear mongering out there and there's some wreckless people not making any considerations and both are equally unhelpful. So, we unpack it and highlight the considerations to make when choosing whether or not to give your dog a bone.
As ever, I won't spoil it by giving away the answers here. So... Dive in, have a listen and if you want to learn more about what Dom and I have to offer formally then go check out caninecaregivers.com.au because we've got a ton of webinars, courses and membership tiers available.
 
Dominique also operates as 'The Dog Behavioural Trainer' in Sydney where she helps people and their dogs with training and behavioural issues. You can find her website here: https://thedogbehaviouraltrainer.com.au/

Episode 16: Canine Caregivers - Building a Relationship
