Description

Hey Dog Lover,🐾
How many times have you said, ā€œMy dog just needs more trainingā€¦ā€?

Here’s the truth bomb:
If your dog knows ā€œsit,ā€ ā€œstay,ā€ and ā€œcomeā€ (even inconsistently)—they’re trained.

So if they’re still not listening, it’s not about obedience.
It’s about relationship.

In this episode, we’ll explore:

  • Why more training won’t fix a communication gap

  • How obedience and leadership are not the same thing

  • When to use structure… and when to just be with your dog

  • Why some dogs love obedience—and others resist it for good reason

  • How understanding your dog’s Dogonalityā„¢ will change everything about how you show up

If your gut says ā€œThere has to be another way,ā€ā€”you’re right. And that way? Starts here.


Hope you enjoy this one!

Talk soon,

Tracy
