Help! My Dog: The Podcast. Dog Behaviour & Training Strategies that Work!

Do totally random things make your dog feel anxious, scared or even show signs of reactivity? Whether it’s cars, strangers, other dogs, certain men or women, or even people using wheelchairs or zimmer frames, it can sometimes feel like there’s no clear reason behind why our dogs suddenly react. This week we’re discussing all things novelty - and we don’t mean silly toys or gifts! Our dogs encounter new events, scenarios and interactions all the time, and if they’re more of a glass-half-empty dog, these experiences can feel overwhelming. We’ll explore some super simple explanations to help you understand why they might be feeling this way, and a few easy strategies you can use to start filling that glass! 
................
Whether your dog is unpredictable with other dogs or predictably bad…

Whether it looks like freezing, barking, lunging or running away…

Whether you are just starting out on your dog-owning journey or your dog has been labelled as having a “behaviour problem”…

… this episode is for you and is going to give you huge insights!

Does it sometimes seem like your dog doesn’t quite know how to interact with other dogs? Whether they’re a walking buddy, a family member’s pet or just a random dog that you see out and about, does your dog struggle with those polite (if sometimes a bit playful) dog-to-dog meet and greets? If barking, lunging, snapping or flipping around on the end of the lead is your reality, then this episode is for you! This week, we’re talking about all things interaction and getting to understand the ins and outs of canine conversation. We’ll explore why and how interactions between dogs may be more of a step-by-step process than you realise, why dog reactivity appears and how to identify exactly when and where your dog’s interaction chain might be broken! We’ll also give you some of our top tips for growing your dog’s skills and staying in the moment for easy encounters.

Does your dog go from zero to one hundred in the blink of an eye? One moment they’re relaxed at home, and the next they’re barking, jumping or even biting? You’re not alone! In this week’s episode we’re diving into why our dogs might seem to be unpredictably reactive at home. We’ll explore why our dogs flip from calm to chaotic in an instant, and how seemingly insignificant events, like the neighbour knocking the door, a cat appearing in the garden or post and deliveries arriving, can add up to big reactions. Don’t worry; we’ll be stripping everything right back to basics and helping you to take a fresh look at your dog’s behaviour, as well as equipping you with some handy tips and tricks that you can try to get to the bottom of those unpredictable moments!
