Behavior Is Selfish (And That’s Good News): How to Communicate Clearly and Build Real Habits

from The Weekly Recall with Duke Ferguson · host Duke Ferguson

In this week’s Recall, I dig into a simple truth that changes everything for you and your dog: behavior is selfish. That is not a bad thing. It is how we are wired. When you understand what truly motivates you and your dog, you can communicate more clearly and turn focus into action through repetition and small daily habits. I share a personal story, break down the four ways dogs communicate, and give you practical prompts to journal, act, and make steady progress.
