In this episode, I discuss the concept of headspace and its crucial role in your dog's learning process. I explain how providing your dog with the mental space they need can significantly enhance their ability to absorb and retain the information you're teaching them. By creating an environment that supports focus and reduces distractions, you'll be better equipped to see the progress you desire in your dog’s training journey.

In this episode, I discuss how dogs don’t fit into boxes, challenging the notion that all dogs are the same or should behave in predictable ways. I explore the importance of recognizing each dog's individuality and uniqueness, shaped by both genetics and environment. By understanding the variation in behavior and personality, dog guardians can better appreciate their dogs for who they truly are, rather than forcing them into societal or pop culture stereotypes.

In this episode, I talk about off leash reliability and what it really takes to achieve it. There’s no overnight success when it comes to training your dog to be reliable off leash—it’s a process that can take years of consistent work. I highlight the importance of understanding that each dog is different, and what works for one may not work for another. I share insights on setting realistic expectations, tailoring your approach to your dog’s unique needs, and the dedication required to build a strong off leash relationship with your dog.

In this episode, I talk about pre cursors and their significance for you and your dog, focusing on how they impact your dog’s response to cues. For example, reaching into a treat bag is a pre cursor that signals your dog to expect something in return for a treat. However, problems arise when we’re not aware of these pre cursors and try to replicate a behavior without them, leading to frustration when our dog doesn’t respond as expected.
