Listen Dog Training: The Walk & Talk

How To Transform Your Dog’s Garden Behaviour


Listen Later

Your garden can be a haven for your dog... or a hotspot for problem behaviours. In this episode of The Walk & Talk, I’m diving deep into the topic of garden behaviour: why dogs act the way they do in their outdoor space, how to set them up for success, and how to use your garden to boost enrichment, fitness, and good habits instead of stress and reactivity.

Whether your dog barks at every passerby, digs up your flowerbeds, or just treats the garden like their personal racetrack, this episode will give you the insight and tools you need to transform your garden into a space that works for your dog, not against them.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Why dogs often react more intensely to triggers in the garden than they do elsewhere
  • The hidden behavioural science behind barking, fence running, and other 'naughty' garden habits
  • Practical strategies to manage your dog’s garden time so it builds calmness, not chaos
  • The good (and not-so-good) garden habits you’ll want to reinforce or reshape.
  • Fun, science-backed training games and activities you can easily introduce outdoors
  • How to use your garden to boost your dog’s fitness, enrichment, and quality of life
  • What not to do if you want to prevent problem behaviours from taking root
  • By the end of this episode, you’ll see your garden not just as a patch of grass, but as a powerful training ground and wellbeing tool for your dog.
