This is the second in our series on the reactive dog. In this episode, we discuss the various stages of life: puppy, adolescence, and adulthood. We discuss why reactivity might appear and what you can do to help bring your dog back to a calmer state of mind - or better yet, help them not over-react in the first place. As always, the heroes of our podcast are the dogs, and we’ll share stories of our real-life canine caped crusaders. Helping them manage the root causes of the reaction is the basis for a trusting relationship where their super-dog qualities come shining through.

This is Dog Days, where we dive into what’s really going on beneath your dog’s behavior—and how understanding their needs can unlock real, lasting change. You’ll hear honest stories of transformation, unexpected breakthroughs, and the kind of training wisdom that will help you feel more confident, connected, and calm with your dog.
You won't find one-size-fits-all training tips here. Instead, you'll hear from compassionate, often humorous experts who help you build an enduring trust with your dog by shifting how you show up to the party. Whether your pup fits the description or not, there's something here for every dog parent.
