Help! My Dog: The Podcast. Dog Behaviour & Training Strategies that Work!About this episode
Is your puppy avoiding their harness or seeming less than thrilled about going for a walk? In this episode, we’re diving into why your dog might be dodging their harness (even if nothing traumatic happened) and how to reframe things and turn their walking gear into a “superhero cape” that sparks joy, calmness and confidence, transforming your walks and potential reactivity at the same time. Dr Tom Mitchell, creator of the 10-day “Help! My Walks Are Stressful” programme and renowned vet and dog behaviourist, is giving us some simple, everyday strategies to help your dog not only love their harness but create positive emotional links to their walks (and even the vet!). Tune in to find out how a few small tweaks can ripple into huge transformations in your dog’s life! ................ 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!
