Listen Dog Training: The Walk & Talk

Why Googling Your Dog’s Behaviour Is Making Things Harder


Listen Later

Have you ever searched your dog’s behaviour online, hoping for reassurance… only to come away feeling more confused, overwhelmed, or unsure than before?

In this episode of The Walk & Talk, I’m unpacking why Googling your dog’s behaviour so often makes things feel harder rather than easier. We’ll explore how behaviour advice gets stripped of context online, why dogs don’t fit neatly into quick answers or one-size-fits-all solutions, and how this leaves so many thoughtful, committed dog owners feeling unsupported and second-guessing themselves.

I also share a little about a passion project I’ve been quietly building behind the scenes: a new membership designed to offer ongoing guidance, context, and support for dog owners who want to understand behaviour more deeply - without constantly starting from scratch.

If you’ve ever felt lost, overwhelmed, or frustrated despite trying your best for your dog, this episode is for you.

💻 Want to dive deeper into transforming your dog’s behaviour with science-backed strategies that actually work? 👉 Find out more about the membership here:

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Why searching for dog behaviour advice online often leads to more confusion, not clarity
  • How behaviour gets oversimplified when context is removed
  • Why dogs don’t respond well to quick fixes and generic solutions
  • What’s missing between free advice and one-to-one training support
  • How better understanding (not more effort) builds confidence with your dog
  • Why feeling stuck doesn’t mean you’re failing - it means you’re under-supported
