🎙️ In this episode: You know ‘The Showdown’ 🤠 The quiet walk, the long straight path, no exit route. Cue: dramatic music as a dog appears on the horizon.

What do you actually do when another dog is heading straight for you on a walk? Shorten the lead? Turn around? Hold your breath and hope for the best?

I explain why so many pass-bys go badly - and what to do instead.

🤠The common mistakes made in those few seconds and the red flag that you’re dangerously close to a meltdown (and injury)

🤠Why ‘hoping for the best’ is the fastest way to set your dog up to fail

🤠And the simple adjustments (even before you’ve done any training) that stop the whole thing escalating.

If passing other dogs makes your stomach knot up and the townsfolk run for cover, you need this episode in your ears. Press play and learn how to walk past other dogs without the drama.
