Come Back Here! Recall Training with Jill Hassevoort
Have you ever found yourself trying to get your dog to come to you and feeling frustrated when they don't? You aren't alone! In this episode, my guest Jill from Jack and Jill Dog Training talks us through some of the myths and truths around teaching our dogs to come when called and common trouble spots we can run into when teaching recall to our dogs. Plus we talk about some of the challenges we trainers have faced with working on recall (hint: we have likely run into the same issues as you!).

Reactive Dog Guardianship with Logan Buie
Being the guardian to a reactive dog can be an amazing and life changing experience, and it can also be really freaking hard!
In this episode, Logan Buie from The Misbehaving Mutt joined me to talk about our own experiences not as trainers, but as guardians to our own reactive dogs. We talk about how our lives changed after realizing our dogs needed more support than we anticipated and how working through reactivity impacted our own stress and anxiety. We also talk through some of the strategies we use to support ourselves while also supporting our dogs (spoiler alert: mental health care is an important facet of that for both of us! Shoutout to therapy!).
If you've found yourself struggling with your own thoughts and feelings while trying to figure out how to support your dog through THEIR feelings, we've been there! And we hope this episode leaves you feeling seen and knowing that support is here for you. Enjoy!

Separation Anxiety with Jenna Teti
Alone time troubles, panic, and stress about leaving your dog at home - let's talk separation anxiety!
In this episode, Jenna Teti from Think Smart Dog Training shares her story of supporting her dog Reuben through separation anxiety that appeared after some life changes, including the onset of the pandemic. We talk about what behaviors Jenna noticed that led her to getting help for Reuben and bust some myths about separation anxiety causes and treatment (spoiler: letting your dog cry it out won't make it better!). We also talk about how both dogs and humans need support when dealing with separation anxiety, and how making space for the human feelings is an important part of the process. I really enjoyed this conversation and I hope you do too!
