September isn’t just about back-to-school for the kids… it’s the perfect time for you and your dog to hit reset, refocus, and embrace the fresh-start energy of autumn. In this episode, I’ll show you how to turn gloomy walks and shorter days into an opportunity to transform your dog’s training.

We’ll dive into the science of learning, why structure is so powerful for dogs, and how to set achievable training goals that actually stick. You’ll leave this episode with practical, science-backed strategies and simple homework ideas you can start today to bring more focus, calmness, and joy into your training journey.

And if you’re ready to take things further, my 21-Day Engagement Training Course is the perfect back-to-school project for you and your dog! With daily, bite-sized lessons, you’ll build engagement step by step and create the kind of focus that makes recall, loose lead walking, and every other skill so much easier.
