S4:E16 When Things Go Wrong (Part 2)

Listener discretion is advised: This episode includes references to self-harm and blood.

In Part 2 of this episode, Sam and Max get into the spicier side of therapy dog work, sharing real, anonymously submitted stories where things really went off script.

From intense client encounters to unexpected incidents involving blood, these are the kinds of moments that test your training, your boundaries, and your ability to think on your feet. Sam breaks it all down with practical insights and solid strategies to help you stay safe, professional, and adaptable when the unexpected happens.

This episode is a must-listen for any handler who wants to be truly prepared for the realities of the role.
