If Your Dog Growls at Someone, Here’s EXACTLY What to Do
What should you do if your dog growls at a stranger? How can you safely introduce them to someone new? In this episode, we’re talking about what to do instead of trying to ‘correct’ growling, barking, or lunging with a command - and keep everyone safe.
- → Why it's dangerous to try to stop a growl
- → How to read your dog’s early warning signals - before things escalate
- → What to do when your dog growls or barks.
- → How to set up safe, low-stress introductions with strangers, friends, or pet sitters
This episode is packed with real-world examples and practical strategies to help your dog feel calm (and help YOU feel confident) so you can enjoy stress free walks together.
