Pet anxiety affects millions of dogs and their families, but understanding it is the first step toward helping. In this special presentation for Pet Anxiety Awareness Month, Kristen Levine takes an in-depth look at the causes, signs, and treatment options available for anxious pets.

Through expert insights and real-life success stories, viewers will learn how anxiety can manifest in different ways, from noise phobias and separation-related stress to generalized fear and behavioral challenges. Board-certified veterinary behaviorist Dr. Lisa Radosta and veterinary behavior expert Dr. Chris Pachel share practical guidance on recognizing symptoms, understanding the science behind anxiety, and exploring effective treatment approaches.

The special also features pet parent Halley Schwartz, who shares her personal journey helping her dog overcome anxiety with the support of veterinary professionals. From behavioral modification and enrichment to medications, training tools, and emerging technologies, this program highlights the many solutions available to help dogs live happier, more confident lives.
