Join the leash reactivity mentorship starting this September 7th. Spots are going quickly!

Reactive dogs face a lot of stressors in their daily lives, and for many, their ability to "bounce back" gets worse with time. 

What is resilience? What is going on when a dog's resilience is low? How can you help condition your dog to increase their resilience?

In this episode I talk with Bobbie Bhambree CDBC, CPDT-KA on her and Dr. Kathy Murphy's Reframing Resilience framework. We cover:

• The neurobiology of resilience
• What factors contribute to low resilience in dogs
• Considerations for building resilience for reactive dogs
• The importance of physical and mental health as the pillar of resilience
• And so much more
