8. Can Yellow Space Zones Help Your Reactive Dog Cope?

Got a reactive or anxious dog? You’re not alone.

In this episode of Positive Playtime, we’re joined by Sarah Jones - founder of My Anxious Dog and the #DogsInYellow campaign - to explore how visibility, enrichment, and designated calm spaces can help dogs feel safer and more confident.

We dive into the story behind the Dogs in Yellow movement, how Yellow Space Zones are creating safe havens at major events, and why tools like tug toys and snuffle mats can be powerful supports for anxious dogs - especially as we head into summer adventures.

What you’ll learn:

✔️ What Yellow Space Zones are and how they help

✔️ Why visibility cues like yellow leads matter for reactive dogs

✔️ Enrichment ideas that support calm behaviour in busy places

✔️ How to advocate for your dog when they need space
