Today we're going to talk about Valentine's Day.
But don't worry — this is not going to be a boring episode about chocolates, roses, and red hearts everywhere.
Let me ask you something.
Is Valentine's Day really about love?
Or is it about pressure?
Pressure to buy a gift.
Pressure to be romantic.
Pressure to post something on Instagram.
Pressure to prove that your relationship is perfect.

In the previous episode, we talked about how dogs understand our emotions and how they communicate without words.
Today, I want to continue that conversation, but from a different angle.
Instead of focusing on emotions, we're going to look at how dogs experience the world, how they gather information, and why they naturally look to humans for guidance.
Because dogs don't just feel with us.
They observe, analyze, and cooperate with us in ways that are easy to overlook.

Today, I want to talk about dogs again.
If you've been listening to the podcast for a while, you already know this isn't the first time I've brought up dogs.
Dogs are one of those topics we can come back to again and again, because each time we look at them from a different angle, we discover something new.

This part can feel intimidating, but with a few simple expressions and some practice, you'll feel much more confident.

Welcome back! This is the third episode in our 4-part series about going to the doctor.
So far, we practiced how to make an appointment and how to check in at the clinic. Today, we'll continue with the next step: talking with the nurse.
Usually, before you see the doctor, a nurse will ask you a few questions about your health. The nurse may also take your temperature, check your blood pressure, and write notes for the doctor.
