5 Steps to Stop a Dog Biting, Compassionately, with Canine Psychologist, Sparky Smith
Is your dog biting — or on the verge of it? In this episode, Sparky, Canine Psychologist, offers a clear and compassionate approach to understanding and preventing biting behaviours without using force, fear, or obedience training.
You’ll learn:
- How your dog’s world shapes their behaviour (Step 1: Look Around)
- How to use a colour-coded system to track emotional states (Step 2: Colour-Code It)
- How to build a real, two-way dialogue with your dog (Step 3: Speak With Your Dog)
- How to reach them during stressful moments (Step 4: Deepen the Dialogue)
- And how to help them feel brave again (Step 5: Build Courage)
These five steps draw from Canine Neurobiological Systems Science and are designed to help caregivers build lasting trust and behavioural stability, especially for dogs who have been misunderstood or have learned to use their teeth to cope.

What colour would you say your dog spends most of their day in?
