In this episode, I talk about the reliance on gadgets to address behaviors and problems. These gadgets are not necessarily aversive or harmful, such as a slow-feed bowl, but are they preventing a holistic approach, communication and bonding?

Some gadgets are aversive, yet are considered non-aversive simply because of the way they are marketed., such as the no-bark collar. How are these tools harming dogs and our ability to proactively prevent issues and address the root of the behaviors?

When these gadgets gather in the closet, and the behaviors are still present, this can lead to increased rules and restrictions, which can also decrease bond and the ability to easily integrate dogs into our lifestyle.

This episode, as all episodes, provides thought provoking information to allow you to make the best decision for your dog and your family.
