Grab your dog and plan a dog walk or two.  Better yet, sit down, grab pen and paper and take notes. This episode is long and chock-full of wisdom. 

Here are just some of the things Haley of @paws.andreflect talk about:

  • Why  we choose to train the behaviors we train
  • Choice points: recognizing what you’re feeling and choosing to do something about it in a healthy and productive way rather than letting your feelings ruin your day.

(What Haley describes are actually techniques you will learn in coaching with me as well).

  • Choosing the metrics you use to measure success: the recovery time after a reaction rather than if your dog reacts
  • Knowing who to trust as a trainer with all the contradictory advice out there
  • When is good good enough?
  • The law of diminishing marginal returns
  • What giving your dog freedom means

But also:

  • Positive punishment and how to have respectful conversations with people who have different views and opinions
  • Taking the leap to become a full-time self-employed writer about all things dog
  • Imposter syndrome and the nagging question of “Am I  good enough?”
  • Embarking on van life and the thought process behind it
