Found It, Fetched It - Your Weekly Dose of Gundog Wisdom from the LWDG

188. Switch Off Series Live 5: Why Everyone Else’s Gundog Looks Calmer Than Yours


Listen Later

In this live session, Jo explores the hidden comparison trap — and the emotional toll it can take when we measure our progress against snapshots on social media or polished training clips.

You’ll discover:

  • Why calm isn’t a fixed personality trait but a skill you can train
  • The unseen realities behind “perfect” dogs online and in classes
  • How environments and routines shape behaviour more than you think
  • Why your journey with your dog is meant to be your pace, your way


This live is part of the pre-challenge series leading up to the Switch Off & Settle Down Challenge, starting Monday 15th September — showing you how to help your dog move from wired to relaxed in real life.
