We are joined by Sharron Steer from Calare Kelpies in the Central West. As a psychologist and working dog handler, Sharron brings a really valuable perspective on the role mindset plays in both people and dogs.
We chat through stress, awareness, fight-or-flight responses, and how our own state of mind can directly influence the dogs we work with. Sharron explains how these concepts show up in everyday training, handling pressure at trials, and recognising what’s actually happening beneath the surface when things don’t go to plan.
A thoughtful conversation that connects the dots between human behaviour and dog behaviour with plenty to take away whether you’re training at home, trialling, or just trying to understand your dogs (and yourself) a little better.
