    Brad,

    I'm happy to hear that Betsy has been able to reprocess her trauma so successfully. I'm also glad to know that there are now empirically supported psychotherapy treatments for pets (as your post so clearly demonstrates). On a personal note, my dog has not attained the fulfillment that he had hoped for taking the 20mg/day of prozac that his vet prescribed. I think he is now ready to explore alternative treatments such as the one you have invented. Maybe you should start your own institute? If so, keep me posted.


    Brian ; - )

    PS I have always appreciated a bit of levity in psychotherapy. I call my version of it Laughing Out Loud Therapy or LOLT(tm)...the book will be published shortly (empirical support will follow early in the 22nd century).
