Hey Dog Lover!
Do you think your dog’s reactivity might be fear-based? You might be surprised to learn that there are several other reasons why dogs can act out.


In this episode, I’m breaking down 5 surprising causes of reactivity that go beyond fear, and I’ll share how you can recognize these behaviours and manage them more effectively.




Here’s what we’ll cover:



  • Why overstimulation might be overwhelming your dog—and how to help them stay calm.

  • The frustration that comes from unmet needs and how to bring more balance into your dog’s life.

  • What your dog’s territorial instincts are really about—and why your own energy could be playing a big role.

  • How prey drive might be making your walks more challenging than they need to be.

  • Why sudden changes in behaviour might not be fear, but actually a sign of health issues.


Understanding the real cause behind your dog’s behaviour is the first step to managing it effectively. Tune in to explore these surprising reasons and learn simple, actionable tips to help your dog stay calm and balanced!
