#dog coded

having to practically force medication down whumpee‘s throat while apologizing

showing patience and understanding when whumpee lashes out in the beginning

frantically googling medical symptoms whenever whumpee shows the smallest signs of distress

using positive reinforcements and practicing being around people again

hearing a sound that might startle whumpee and immediately going to investigate while whumpee stays on the couch, watching

becoming whumpee’s safe place, the one whumpee looks at when unsure about something to gauge caretaker’s reaction

being able to tell when whumpee is in distress without needing to be told, just because their behaviour is slightly off

getting anxious when separated from whumpee for too long, wondering what they are up to

whumpee developing separation anxiety

whumpee‘s triggers becoming caretaker‘s triggers: caretaker hears thunder and is immediately on edge because thunder is now assosciated with the stress of whumpee in distress
