Sarah Dixon and Tyler Muto field questions from our Consider the Dog members covering some pretty interesting topics... For instance - they talk to a member who is working with a very volatile dog, herding mix, who is throwing tantrums any time any type of pressure is applied. They also share some pro-tips with  a member who has a dog who keeps sneaking things off the counter, but only when they are not in the room. They discuss the ramifications, pros and cons of playing prey based games such as chasing a ball, with reactive dogs. And finally, they help a member with a dog that moved from the big city to the country and is shutting down when it sees bugs, of all things. 

Let's get into it!
