Can your dog sense that you’re stressed? Do dogs literally smell fear? We’re getting geeky in this episode and exploring the idea of emotional contagion. Science now confirms that a person’s emotional state might influence our furry friends in surprising ways (but not necessarily in the ways we might have been previously told!). From subtle changes in body language to shifts in scent, we break down how dogs perceive and respond to our emotional cues. We’ll also be giving you some actionable strategies to help with your stressful emotions to positively impact your life and your dog’s behaviour!
