The Resident Wild - Episode 8 - When Siblings Fall Out and Yawning

Two puppies from the same litter, raised together from day one, so why are they suddenly not getting along? In this episode of Resident Wild, Kim and Neri answer a listener question about two 16-month-old sibling dogs whose relationship has started to break down. We explore how social dynamics can change as dogs mature, why 'littermate syndrome' is a label not an understanding of why and how understanding each dog's individual needs can help. In our Debunk a Myth segment, we unpack the idea that dogs yawn simply because they're tired. Yawning can be a much more complex form of communication, offering valuable insight into a dog's emotional state and how they're experiencing the world around them. A fascinating episode about relationships, communication, and looking beyond the surface of behaviour. 🐾
