Ever feel like your dog is ignoring you on purpose, or that everyone else has this training thing figured out? You’re not alone. In this first episode of our brand new series, Jo is joined by psychotherapist and LWDG Mindset Coach Emma Liddell to explore the Seven Lenses of Dog Behaviour.

Emma shares how understanding things like genetics, neurobiology, and even your dog’s hormones can change the way you see their behaviour, and help you feel a lot less like you’re failing.

We chat about:

• Why your dog’s “naughty” moments often have hidden causes
• How evolution and survival instincts shape what your dog does
• The role of dopamine (yes, really) in those moments when they suddenly go deaf
• Why looking at your dog through just one lens never tells the full story
• And how this understanding can bring more calm, confidence, and compassion into your training

If you’ve ever stood in a field, treats in hand, wondering why nothing’s working—this one’s for you.

🎧 Listen in, take a deep breath, and remember: it’s not just you.

We buckle ourselves in. We buckle the kids in. But every day, thousands of us unknowingly put our dogs at serious risk the moment we start the engine.

In this special episode, I’m joined by Dr Scott Miller, the UK’s best-known TV vet, and Adem Fehmi, a respected canine behaviourist, to uncover the truth about travelling with unrestrained dogs.

Did you know?

• A 20kg dog in a 30mph crash becomes a 600kg projectile.
• Up to 80,000 dogs are killed on UK roads every year, many because they weren’t restrained.
• Most dog owners don’t even realise they’re breaking the law when they let their pets ride loose.

This isn’t about judgement, it’s about understanding the facts so we can make simple changes that could save our dogs’ lives.

Dr Scott shares what he’s seen in over 25 years of treating animals, including the heartbreaking injuries that happen in crashes. Adem explains why so many dogs feel anxious in the car, and how you can train them to be calm and safe without fear or stress.

Whether you’re driving five minutes to the park or three hours to a training day, this conversation is essential listening.

If you love your dog, please take the time to hear this episode. The small changes you make today could protect them and you today!

🎙️ Listen now and join us in making car journeys safer for every dog.

✔ The shocking physics of a crash:

How a 20kg dog becomes a 600kg projectile that can injure everyone in the car.

✔ The law you might be breaking:

Why over half of UK drivers don’t realise they’re legally required to restrain their dog in the car (Rule 57 of the Highway Code).

✔ Why loving your dog isn’t enough:

How affection leads many owners to prioritise comfort over safety—and why that can have tragic consequences.

✔ Real cases you’ll never forget:

Dr Scott describes the heartbreaking injuries he’s seen when dogs were unrestrained.

✔ Practical advice for reducing anxiety:

Adem shares simple, step-by-step ways to help your dog feel calm and safe in a crate or harness.

✔ Traveling with multiple dogs:

Tips for working dog owners who transport several dogs to shoots and training days.

✔ The one mindset shift that changes everything:

Why treating your dog like any other family passenger—buckled up and protected—is the most caring thing you can do.

Dr Scott Miller

One of the UK’s most recognisable vets, Dr Scott has over 25 years of experience and is a familiar face on ITV’s This Morning, Crufts, and Lorraine. As a passionate animal welfare advocate and pet safety campaigner, he brings unique insight into the often-overlooked risks our dogs face in everyday situations.

A respected canine behaviourist and trainer, Adem has appeared on Channel 4, BBC Breakfast, and Love Your Weekend. He runs one of the UK’s largest behaviour and training centres, specialising in helping dogs—and their humans—navigate anxiety, training challenges, and safe travel.

If you only do one thing after listening to this episode, make it this:

Check how your dog travels in your car.

• Are they safely restrained with a crash-tested harness or crate?
• Do you need to train them gradually to feel comfortable being secured?
• Do you know the legal requirements for pet travel?

It only takes a few minutes to make changes that could save their life—and yours.

In this powerful and heartwarming episode of Found It, Fetched It, Jo sits down with LWDG Group Expert Claire Denyer to explore something that’s often overlooked but deeply impactful in our dog training journeys—our own emotional energy.

From giggles that accidentally reward bad habits to the subtle signs a dog gives when something just isn’t right, Jo and Claire unpack how much our mindset, mood, and even body language shape our dogs’ behaviour. With a mix of personal stories, expert insights, and more than a few “oh wow, I do that too” moments, they show how connection and calm always start with us.

You’ll hear:

• Why laughter can accidentally reinforce unwanted behaviours
• How energy affects everything from heelwork to recall
• What signs to look for when a dog’s trying to tell you something’s wrong
• The subtle shift from training at your dog to training with them
• How to reset your mindset when a session starts going sideways
• Why play isn't just fun—it’s emotional first aid
• 
  

Whether your dog’s doing zoomies mid-session or lying down instead of retrieving, this episode will leave you feeling more empowered, more in tune, and more aware of the power you hold in every interaction.

Because calm starts with you—and your dog is always watching.
