33 | Why Muzzling is Not What You Think: The Truth About Building Trust and Confidence

Hey dog lover! In this episode, I'm diving into the often misunderstood topic of using muzzles in reactivity training. I'll share why muzzles can actually be a powerful tool for building trust and confidence between you and your dog. Adding a muzzle can help you become a calmer, more confident guardian, allowing you to safely test trust-building exercises. If you've ever felt unsure about using a muzzle, this episode is for you. I'll explain why muzzling is not what you think—and how it can make a real difference in your relationship with your dog. Enjoy! Tracy PS: The Calm Down, Dog!
