Life Imitates Art

02/20/24 • 26 min

Join the Amys and their brilliant guest, renowned illustrator Lili Chin, as they discuss her inspirational journey - from animator, to interpreter of animal communication and behavior. Lili has famously captivated veterinary and behavior professionals, children, and adults alike with her endearing animal illustrations. In addition to publishing her own books, she has illustrated for groundbreaking behavior legends Dr. Sophia Yin and Grisha Stewart, and has even been commissioned by the IAABC. Lili is deeply passionate about improving human/animal communication and relationships, which is resoundingly evident in her body of work.
Lili is responsible for gifting the world her careful renderings of Boogie, her precious muse. Boogie wiggled his way into the hearts of fans, and his adorably expressive, blue-eyed likeness will forever be synonymous with the artist herself.
Get to know the thoughtful creator behind your favorite behavior illustrations, and find out when Lili's next much-anticipated bestseller will hit the shelves. Grab a cosmo (or a mocktail) and get up to speed on the latest buzzzzzz during episode 9 of the Behavior Buzzzzzz with 2 Amys veterinary behavior podcast.

The Amys Have Lost Their Marbles - CDS

Join the Amys as they discuss Cognitive Dysfunction Syndrome (CDS), a common age-related neurodegenerative disorder characterized by gradual and progressive cognitive decline in dogs and cats, similar to Alzheimer's disease in humans.
The Amys discuss cognition, and how changes in awareness and responsiveness to stimuli impact our pet's memory and behavior. They cover the physical changes that occur in the brain that lead to decline, and, the intimate connection between pain and systemic illness.
What is inflammaging? Can I screen my dog for CDS at home? What management strategies can help to keep aging pets safe and comfortable? Can a combination of canine neuro-specific diets and supplements, enrichment, and training impact the progression of the disease?
Learn how positive changes you make today can improve longterm outcomes of CDS. Grab a cocktail and get up to speed on the latest buzzzzzz during episode 8 of the Behavior Buzzzzzz with 2 Amys veterinary behavior podcast.
