Got an overexcited pup who just can’t keep four paws on the floor when meeting people? This is one of the most common challenges for puppies and adult dogs alike! In this episode, we dig into why the usual advice of “just fold your arms and ignore the jumping” often doesn’t quite work and what’s really happening in your dog’s brain when that excitement takes over. We’ll talk about why some methods might make things worse (without you even realising) and what you can do instead to keep the jumping at bay. You’ll learn how to replace unpredictable reactions to stop that jumping and turn four paws on the ground into a habit that lasts.

................
Whether your dog is unpredictable with other dogs or predictably bad…

Whether it looks like freezing, barking, lunging or running away…

Whether you are just starting out on your dog-owning journey or your dog has been labelled as having a “behaviour problem”…

… this episode is for you and is going to give you huge insights!
