Are you living with a sensitive dog?
Hi, I’m Stevi. I’m a cancer nurse, published author and visual artist raising an adolescent rescue named Eclipse. Eclipse is a working-dog mix, made up of about 14 breeds. He’s sensitive, intuitive, easily overwhelmed, and scarily smart! Living with him has forced me to unlearn almost everything I thought I knew about dogs. Recovery time matters. Appetite comes and goes. Stress shows up quietly. Standard approaches often miss the mark. I’ve started a small Skool community (Oh My Dog) for guardians of complex or sensitive dogs. Oh My Dog, didn’t start with trainers or experts (although we now have a few members who are trainers &/or experts). Most of us are just people living with dogs who need more space, more patience, and a different lens. If you’re caring for a dog who feels deeply, retreats after stimulation, struggles with routine expectations, or just doesn’t fit the usual boxes, you’re very welcome to join us at Oh My Dog. 📸 Eclipse in his pink era
