Description

Welcome back to We’re All Ears, the podcast dedicated to helping pets live calmer, healthier lives through the power of sound. I’m your host, Janet Marlow, and today we’re talking about a challenge that so many of us face: street reactivity on a walk.

Street reactivity happens when a dog suddenly reacts to a trigger, another dog passing by, a skateboard rolling past, or a loud truck rattling down the street. What feels like background noise to us can feel overwhelming to them. Remember, dogs hear at frequencies almost twice as high as humans, which means their world is filled with layers of sound we don’t even notice. ( Music by Janet Marlow)
