Toni, Emily, and Tena pick up where they left off talking about the struggles of dogs pulling on walks when they are on a leash.

• Tena also discusses the different ways to walk your dog! There is more than just a neighborhood walk to help leash train your dog and expose them to new environments. Tena talks more about using parking lots with dogs and how that is an effective way to leash train them, as well as loose leash walking by using a longer lead and allowing a dog more opportunities to sniff and learn about their surroundings.

Toni and Emily received a list of questions from a listener. This listener responded to the raw food episodes with many questions about transitioning their dog to a fresh diet. Toni and Emily figured that other people probably had similar questions as well and that they should make an episode out of it!

• Toni and Emily begin to answer questions about transitioning a dog from a kibble to a raw diet. They talk about the various options, i.e., DIY meals or commercial raw food diets, and the pros and cons of both. They also recommend proteins to start with and how to slowly transition kibble-fed dogs to a higher protein/moisture diet.

Toni and Emily use information that has worked for themselves to answer these questions, as well as knowledge and information they have accumulated over the years. There are many different answers and options out there for everyone.

Toni and Emily bring back Sara from the traveling episode to talk about the importance of decompression for dogs! Sara shares her experience with decompression and how instrumental it was to her dog's relationship with herself and her father and fiance. Decompression is not just for rescue dogs; it is also essential for new puppies or dogs that have experienced trauma. Decompression allows for healing, growth, and, most importantly, confidence in and with their handler.

• Sara shares her experience with Mylo and how he went from being a scared and nervous dog to outgoing, adventurous, and friendly with strangers. Toni and Emily have similar experiences with their animals and briefly touch on how hard it can be to give your dog space and time to adjust and find comfort. As dog lovers, we all want to hug and kiss our animals, but sometimes that sends the wrong message.
• Like humans, dogs deal with and handle stress differently. We always have to remember that they are animals, and they see the world differently than we do. Our job is to show them how to be safe and confident in this world of triggers, loud sounds, and new people.
