What if the key to solving your dog's behavioral issues lies not in strict training regimens but in embracing their natural instincts? This week, I share insights from my trip to Costa Rica, where I observed dogs living their best lives, free from leashes and constraints. We'll explore how the culture of treating dogs is evolving, comparing the regimented routines of passionate trainers with the more relaxed approach of everyday dog owners. I also provide updates on exciting upcoming events, including a transformative retreat in Joshua Tree, California, and a virtual shadow program for aspiring trainers.

Reflecting on the well-being of dogs in a coastal town, we'll delve into how ample exercise and social interactions can lead to happier, healthier pets. I'll share inspiring stories, like that of a local coffee shop worker whose dog roams freely to the beach and back, highlighting the stark contrast with the more restrictive lifestyles many dogs face in the US.

We'll reevaluate traditional dog training methods, advocating for a more holistic approach that prioritizes exposure, exercise, and natural living over mere obedience. From the stress of city living to the vision of going back to pack hikes, I'll share my candid thoughts on professional values and personal mental health. 

You know the drill, grab a tasty drink and enjoy.
