In this episode, Nikki talks with Parent Coach, Anna Skates, about the similarities between dogs and kids when it comes to teaching them how to navigate this world. It is the job of the human adult to act as a tour guide  to provide needed tools to be successful in their development. Learn the connectivity between raising a child and raising a dog. We had a great time discussing how they are both very much intertwined.
