The Dog Behind The Human

In this heartwarming episode of The Dog Behind The Human, Dog Coach Francis shares two powerful letters from listeners whose lives were turned upside down — and ultimately transformed — by their dogs.Story 1: “Kiko Time”Lianne, a marketing assistant from Quezon City, thought she was just fostering a rescued aspin. What began as a temporary setup turned into a journey of torn shoes, missed meetings, and unexpected healing. Kiko didn’t just interrupt their calendar—he became the heartbeat of their home.Story 2: “The Suitcase Moment”Carla, a longtime listener, opens up about relationship struggles, silent drift, and how one stubborn Shih Tzu named Buster jumped into a suitcase… and saved something worth holding on to. This is a story about love, reconnection, and the quiet ways dogs keep us grounded. Coach Francis reflects on how dogs don’t fix our problems — they reveal what matters. From disrupting emotional spirals to becoming the quiet glue that holds everything together, this episode is a reminder that even the smallest dogs can teach us the biggest lessons.Listen now to uncover the messy, magical stories of the dogs behind the humans — and maybe, find your own story within theirs.

Dear The Dog Behind The Human,I hope this message finds you well. My name is Julia, and I'm from Cebu. I've been an avid listener of your podcast, The Dog Behind The Human, for the past year, and I've immensely benefited from the insights and tips you share about pet care and training. The recent episode on canine behavior resonated deeply with me.I'm reaching out with a concern about my 3-year-old Golden Retriever, Bella. Over the past few months, I've noticed that Bella has developed what seems to be separation anxiety. Whenever I leave the house, even for brief periods, she becomes distressed – displaying behaviors such as barking incessantly, destroying furniture, and sometimes even attempting to escape. The intensity of her excitement and relief upon my return is both touching and concerning.Despite my efforts to establish a routine for Bella, leaving behind her favorite toys, and experimenting with calming products like anxiety wraps, the situation doesn't seem to be improving. With an impending change in my work schedule next month, I'm even more anxious about how she will cope during longer periods of solitude.Given how much I value the advice and information on your podcast, I was hoping you might touch upon the topic of separation anxiety in dogs in a future episode. Any insights, recommendations, or resources that could assist Bella and me would be incredibly appreciated.Thank you for continually enlightening pet enthusiasts like me with your invaluable knowledge. Eagerly awaiting your thoughts on this matter.Warm regards,JuliaCebu, Philippines
