“It's the scars that you don't see that hurt the most.” 💛
This was one of the most moving moments of my conversation with Sarah Jones from My Anxious Dog.
Sarah shared how, following her husband's serious accident in 2019, she found herself becoming his full-time carer.
During an incredibly difficult period, the work she was doing for Bella and My Anxious Dog became something of a lifeline. And through her own experiences, Sarah began to understand trauma in a completely different way.
As she put it, you can learn to deal with it, but you never forget it.
It's a thought that stayed with me long after we'd finished recording. We don't always know what someone has experienced, and the same is true of the dogs we encounter. Perhaps that's why kindness and understanding are so important.
To the dogs who need a little extra space, and to the people doing everything they can to support them.
💛 Sometimes the things we can't see are the things we most need to understand.
