In the wild, animals face failure daily. While that can be enriching in itself, for anxious dogs, this can present challenges in the future. If you’re looking for ways to empower your dog with confidence, this is really an episode for every dog guardian. 

In this episode, you’ll learn the 3 basic principles Jenna would like you to take into your next sessions:

1. In theory, your dog should be okay with failure. Failure is natural and can increase the engagement to succeed in the next round. 
2. As an owner, start learning to notice signs in your dog for when tasks are becoming easier and they are building confidence vs. when they start to fear even trying. 
3. Mastering the Goldilocks effect and taking this into your training sessions to maximize your impact of instilling confidence.
