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

Can your dog play games perfectly in the garden, only to act like you don’t exist the moment you go for a walk? Whether they ignore your cues entirely or treat high-value rewards like background noise, in this episode, we’re uncovering why ‘selective hearing’ happens - and why it’s far easier to fix than you think! We’ll break down why high-distraction environments could be creating hidden pressures, plus a few simple shifts to build effortless focus out and about. We’ll also share some simple strategies for flipping your dog’s attention back to you that you can start today, and a clever way to bridge the gap between your calm garden and the busy real world!
................
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!
