In this episode, we explore how toxic positivity shows up in our relationships with dogs and contributes to actions like praising dogs for being “tolerant” of rough play and touch by children, and saying “are you going to get another one?” after a friend’s dog dies.  We also challenge the idea that “a tired dog is a good dog”, honor the nuance involved in rehoming a dog, and identify ways to support each other better through dog death and difficult dog behavior.
