Fetch for Me, Human

Guess who's back, back again?

Friends, it's been awhile, but we're back!  In this episode, we discuss where we were (it's been a long time) and where we're going. The dog industry has shifted in the past few years, and for those of us who feel deep connections with our dogs and spend the majority of our time and energy with our dogs - our time to shine has come!  Going forward, this podcast is going to focus more on the human-animal connection, the impact that has on our mental health, improving our dog's wellness, and supporting our reactive dogs with big feelings.  Want to connect?

Pet Loss & Grief - Your Dog Has a Legacy

If you've ever had a special bond with a particular dog, then you know the life-changing impact they can have on your life. In this episode, I discuss that while some of us with dogs opt not to have kids, we can still leave a powerful legacy behind as a team with our dog.  I hope this episode brings you peace and helps you realize the amazing things you and your dog have accomplished together!

33. So Your Dog Reacted, Now What? Part 2

This episode is a continuation of last week's discussion about changing our mindset about our dogs' reactions. In this episode, we discuss what we actually do with ourselves and with our dogs in a physical way, now that we've already addressed the mindset.  This is the leash I use from High Tail Hikes This is a good article to read by Eileen Anderson on why you can't reinforce emotions Connect with me on Instagram 

32. So Your Dog Reacted, Now what?

If your dog has ever reacted, then I bet that it's made you feel some sort of way. In this episode, we're discussing the two main reasons why our dog's reactions impact us and what we can do about that. If we change our mindset, put into perspective, and have realistic expectations, we can set ourselves up for success.  The only way to help your dog feel safe and comfortable in the world and to work on training techniques is to get outside and train and practice. Don't let the worry or anxiety of a possible reaction deter you from that!   Check out my shop and download the May activity workbook to have an awesome month of May with your dog?  If you want to read the article from the IAABC Journal about cortisol levels in dogs after reactions, you can read that here.  Connect with me on Instagram!
