Animal Party Episode 266 Is Your Dog OCD… or Just Bored?

This week on Animal Party with Deborah Wolfe, listener questions spark a fascinating and funny deep dive into the minds of our pets—featuring special guest Stanley Coren, author of The Intelligence of Dogs. Can dogs really have OCD? Are we over-labeling our pets with human psychology—or are science and behavior more connected than we think? From Prozac for pups to the surprising truth about breed instincts, Deb and Dr. Coren explore how genetics, lifestyle, and training shape behavior. You’ll also learn why a bored Border Collie might redecorate your house, how to choose the right breed for your life, and whether 21 days is really enough to break a bad habit (spoiler: not even close!). Smart, insightful, and full of humor, this episode helps you better understand what makes your pet tick—and how to create a happier life together. EPISODE NOTES: Is Your Dog OCD… or Just Bored?
