  • E108 - The Neuroscience of Cognitive Dysfunction with Daniel Shaw

    E108 - The Neuroscience of Cognitive Dysfunction with Daniel Shaw
    Oct 20 2026
    In this episode of Canine Arthritis Matters, Hannah is joined by animal behaviourist and neuroscience expert Daniel Shaw to explore canine cognitive dysfunction (CCD) and its relationship with chronic pain. They discuss how CCD is often underdiagnosed, why its early signs can be subtle, and how pain, sensory decline and anxiety can mimic or worsen cognitive symptoms. Daniel explains that while age-related brain changes cannot always be prevented, we can support healthy brain function through appropriate physical activity, cognitive and social enrichment, good nutrition and quality sleep. They also explore the importance of adapting activities to each dog's individual needs and recognising that chronic pain and CCD can coexist. The episode highlights the value of a holistic, multidisciplinary approach to helping older dogs maintain their wellbeing and quality of life.5 Key Take-Home PointsCCD is often underdiagnosed: Early signs can be subtle and easily mistaken for normal ageing.Chronic pain and CCD are linked: Pain can mimic or worsen cognitive and behavioural changes.Keep the brain active: Cognitive, physical and social enrichment can help support brain health.Adapt to your dog's changing needs: Prioritise safe exercise, sniffing opportunities, social interaction and quality sleep.Take a holistic approach: Pain management, appropriate nutrition and lifestyle adaptations all contribute to a better quality of life.References mentionedThe Canine cognitive dysfunction rating scale (CCDR): a data-driven and ecologically relevant assessment tool Hannah E.

  • E107 - Multidisciplinary Conversations Along the Chronic Pain Journey with Findy & Elena

    E107 - Multidisciplinary Conversations Along the Chronic Pain Journey with Findy & Elena
    Oct 13 2026
    This episode explores the complex relationship between chronic pain, behaviour, movement and the human-animal bond. Hannah is joined by Dr Findy and Elena Wilson to discuss why chronic pain can be difficult to recognise, particularly when behavioural or mobility changes are misinterpreted as training issues, ageing or stubbornness. They explore the importance of understanding the emotional and social impact of pain, supporting caregivers through difficult diagnoses, and recognising that dogs are continually communicating with us. The conversation also highlights the value of true interdisciplinary collaboration, combining veterinary, behavioural and physiotherapy expertise to provide more holistic care. Ultimately, effective chronic pain management goes beyond medication, requiring individualised support, environmental adaptations, appropriate movement, emotional safety and a strong team around both the dog and caregiver.5 Key Take Home PointsLearn to recognise the subtle signs of pain. Pain is biopsychosocial. The caregiver is part of the treatment team. Work collaboratively. Look beyond medication.Guest bioDr Findy Let's Talk Paws Veterinary BehaviourElena ELEVATE Veterinary PhysiotherapyDr Findy, a vet from Australia and Elena Wilse, a vet physio from the UK.

  • E106 Bridging the Vet–Owner Divide: How The Coerenza Approach Creates True Partnership in Canine Care with Dr Tom Walsh

    E106 Bridging the Vet–Owner Divide: How The Coerenza Approach Creates True Partnership in Canine Care with Dr Tom Walsh
    Oct 6 2026

    In this episode, Hannah chats with Dr Tom Walsh about taking a more holistic, practical approach to canine health and osteoarthritis management. They explore his Corenza approach, built around five key pillars: exercise, environment, enrichment, nutrition and responsibility. Together, they discuss how these areas can help reduce overwhelm for caregivers while supporting dogs at every life stage, including those living with OA. From adapting exercise and improving flooring, to providing meaningful enrichment and navigating the often-confusing world of nutrition, the conversation focuses on seeing the whole dog rather than simply treating individual problems. Above all, they explore how we can help dogs live happier, healthier lives.

    5 Key Take Home Points

    • Consultations: Think about the whole dog, not just the diagnosis.

    • Coerenza & the five pillars: exercise, environment, enrichment, nutrition and responsibility.

    • Exercise: should be individualised to the dog, their condition and their environment.

    • Enrichment is essential: it’s not an adjunct, or a “cherry on top” — it helps create a life worth living.

    • Break complex decisions into manageable areas rather than becoming overwhelmed by choice.
