    I would be shocked if it turned out my dog didn’t have the canine equivalent of sensory processing disorder. She shows the same variations of discomfort, annoyance, and irritability I do when she encounters sensations she hates, even though we hate different things.

    I genuinely thought this was already established as a possibility.

      My little girl was properly ADHD. I miss her. She was tiny and fluffy and adorable, with the focus and attention span that a gold fish would look down on.
