Animal Welfare & Advocacy: Tails of Hope India Podcast – Voices for the Voiceless | Season 3, Episode 3 (Finale) | Billie Groom, PhD(c), Institute of Canine Psychotherapy

🎙️ TAILS OF HOPE – Season 3, Episode 3 (Finale) Guest: Billie Groom, PhD(c)Founder & CEO, Institute of Canine PsychotherapyPodcast: Tails of Hope What if the real behavioural issue isn’t the dog…but the system we built around them? In this powerful finale of Season 3, Episode 3, Billie (Talyn) Groom challenges us to confront something uncomfortable: the dog training industry, animal welfare spaces, and even well-meaning guardians often operate without psychological literacy. This is not an attack. It is an invitation to evolve. In this concluding conversation, Billie goes deeper into the philosophy and science behind Canine Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CCBT). She explains how decades of working with street dogs, trauma survivors from fighting circuits, and rescued dogs from extreme exploitation shaped herunderstanding that behaviour is rarely about control—it is about cognition, emotion, and lived experience. We explore: Billie speaks openly about resistance she has facedwhen challenging outdated narratives. She reflects on how building an accredited educational institute was not about status—but about accountability. About ensuring that those working with dogs are trained in frameworks grounded in science, not opinion. The conversation moves into something even deeper:responsibility. If dogs mirror stress, confusion, and emotionaldysregulation, what does that reveal about us? This episode will resonate if you: You will walk away with a reframed lens: Behaviour is communication. Trauma leaves cognitive imprints. Education is activism. Billie’s message is not sentimental—it isstructured. Her work proves that science and empathy are not opposites. They are allies. When canine welfare integrates psychology, somethingshifts globally. And perhaps most powerfully, this finale reminds usthat reform does not happen by accident. It happens when someone refuses to accept “this is how it’s always been done.” 🎧 Listen to Season 3, Episode 3 (Finale) now. 📢 Share this episode with trainers, veterinarians, psychologists, and serious guardians. 💬 Ask yourself: Are we correcting dogs—or are we understanding them? Because hope for animals cannot remain emotional. It must become educated. It must become accountable. It must become systemic.
