Episode #239 Why “No” Isn’t Training: Teaching Alternative Behaviors That Stick


Listen Later

Saying “No!” might stop your dog in the moment—but it doesn’t teach them what to do instead. In this episode, we dive into why “No” isn’t actually training and how to shift your approach to create lasting behavior change.

You’ll learn how to replace unwanted behaviors like jumping, barking, or chewing with functional alternatives your dog can actually succeed at. We’ll walk through real-life examples, simple training strategies, and the mindset shift that turns chaos into calm.

If you’re ready to stop managing bad behavior and start building good habits, this episode is for you.

🎧 Tune in and discover the power of teaching “what to do” instead of just saying “no.”
