Have you ever had one of those days where your dog seemed absolutely fine, only for everything to fall apart over something tiny later in the day? Maybe they barked at a sound they’d usually ignore or exploded at a dog appearing round a corner. It can feel baffling, even disheartening, when you cannot pinpoint the trigger.
This week on Paws and Pawsitivity, I’m talking about stress stacking, a concept that suddenly makes those puzzling behaviour moments make perfect sense. We look at how your dog’s “stress bucket” fills throughout the day, why even small events can add up, and how to recognise the early signs long before things reach boiling point.
If you live with an anxious or reactive dog, or you’re simply curious about what’s going on beneath the surface, this is an episode you’ll want to hear. Understanding stress stacking doesn’t just change how you view your dog’s behaviour, it reshapes how you support them emotionally in everyday life.
