Hey Dog Lover,🐾What if the behaviours you’ve been trying so hard to train… aren’t actually what you want?In this episode, we’re kicking off Untraining Week with a powerful mindset shift. We’re diving into the heart of what “training” really means—and why letting go of task-based obedience can open the door to deeper connection with your dog.You’ll hear me unpack:Why traditional obedience cues might be missing the markWhat “heel,” “sit,” or “stay” are really about (spoiler: it’s usually not about the command itself)How to spot the difference between compliance and communicationWhat it means when your dog checks out on a walk—and why that’s a how interesting moment, not a mistakeWays to reconnect by observing, listening, and letting your dog be a dogWhether you have one dog or five, this episode will help you start noticing the subtle ways your dog is already showing you what they need—you just may need to untrain your ears (and ego) to hear it. 😉Hope you enjoy this one!Tracy xoxoxNEXT STEPS 👣🐾Now is your time to join The Fearless Framework, my 12-month online program designed to help you break the fear cycle, build trust, and raise a confident dog—without obedience drills or treat-dependency.👉 www.beyondobedience.ca/fearless 🎶 Music credit: Shawn Trotter of shawntrotter.com
