Today's episode is all about the wags, the wiggles, the winks, and the woofs - basically, those things your dog does that make you ask … are they happy, hungry, or plotting to take over the couch?  We’re here to help you decode those unique non-verbal cues they share with us. That tail wag might be saying “Wheeee! Let's party!” or perhaps it hints at something more mischievous, like, “Let’s take this outside…” Spoiler Alert: it could be a little of both.

This is Dog Days, where we dive into what’s really going on beneath your dog’s behavior—and how understanding their needs can unlock real, lasting change. You’ll hear honest stories of transformation, unexpected breakthroughs, and the kind of training wisdom that will help you feel more confident, connected, and calm with your dog.

You won't find one-size-fits-all training tips here. Instead, you'll hear from compassionate, often humorous experts who help you build an enduring trust with your dog by shifting how you show up to the party.
Whether your pup fits the description or not, there's something here for every dog parent.

Today's episode focuses on the Working Group,  the second installment in our series exploring dog breeds and the characteristics common to each AKC group. We'll help you understand why your Mastiff believes it's his responsibility to monitor and protect your home from his favorite front window perch, yet transforms into the ultimate family lapdog once he's assessed the situation. Then, he'll follow Uncle Joe's every move with unwavering vigilance, despite Joe being the gentlest soul you'll ever meet! As we continue this series, we'll examine each of the seven AKC-recognized groups in detail. 

Today's episode is the first in our series on dog breeds. We discuss characteristics that are common to a particular group and can help you understand why your Yorkie may secretly (or not so secretly) rule the world. We focus on the Toy Breeds today, and in subsequent episodes, we'll discuss each of the seven AKC-recognized groups.
