Ruff Around The Edges

Kajsa van Overbeek

Sharing stories of force-free dog training journeys with challenging, reactive and aggressive dogs and the impact living with those dogs has on our daily lives and our mental health. I hope that hearing these stories can help to make people feel less alone. We love our dogs to pieces but sometimes it"s hard and then it"s simply nice to hear from others going through something similar. This podcast is about us trying to teach our dogs, but more importantly, it"s about what our dogs are teaching

Mindset Episode 028 | I Would Never Let My Dog Behave...

Ruff Around The Edges ·

2025/06/16

Send us a text A chat at the airfield turns into a round of “I would never…” and sparks this episode on what I call verbal condemnation. From “I’d never rehome my dog” to “My dog would never bite”, these statements often hide fear, not fact. I explore the defense mechanisms behind them, projection, denial, moral high ground, and why they sting so much when directed at us. Awareness isn’t about brushing things off. It’s the first step toward understanding what we’re really afraid o...

Mindset Episode 027 | Getting the Most Out of Your Time

Ruff Around The Edges ·

2025/05/26

Send us a text We say things like “I just want to get the most out of life” all the time, especially when it comes to our dogs, who already feel like they’re on borrowed time. But when you stop to really think about it…what does that even mean? In this episode, I follow that thought down a bit of a rabbit hole. What does it actually mean to maximize life? For ourselves, for our dogs? Is it about time? Love? Impact? And who gets to decide whether we’ve done “enough”? As always, I don’t land on...

Send us a text When your work is about helping others, whether it’s animals, people, or both, it can be hard to draw the line between care and self-sacrifice. In this episode, I talk to Gunila Pedersen, a veterinarian who dealt with burnout, left the field, and then returned on her own terms after becoming a coach. We talk about the pressure to be perfect, the weight of euthanasia decisions, what happens when clients can’t afford treatment, and how to live with imperfection in a s...

2024/09/21

Send us a text In this episode of Ruff Around the Edges, I explore the power of starting with a "no" to gain clarity on what we truly want. By identifying what we're not willing or able to do, we make it easier to figure out where we want to go — whether it’s choosing how to manage our dog’s behavior or making parenting decisions.I also dive into the importance of listening to your body’s signals to understand when something is a genuine no, and when it’s simply fear trying to hold you b...

Claire describes such familiar themes. Like what it’s like to look back at how her childhood dogs were treated with the knowledge she has now. How she thought she knew quite a bit about dogs until Ozzy came along.Ozzy was adopted from a charity, who had done a pretty great job preparing prospective adopters for what it’s like to bring a new dog into the home, and yet Claire, like many of us, still underestimated the reality, partly because she adopted Ozzy when he was still a puppy.She talks ...

2024/05/28

Leah Lykos, a dog behaviorist out of Chattanooga Tennessee and guardian to three dogs, Eva, Biggie, and Mia explains how her focus is on movement and somatic work. That makes sense given that she operates from the philosophy that for dogs even more so than for humans there is no separation of mind and body.We discuss something new to me: resistance feeding.The idea behind resistance feeding is to not control the dog's behavior but to provide an appropriate outlet for it.Everything is always o...
