Building A Better Bond With Your Dog Through Choice And Clear Boundaries with Irith Bloom

Irith Bloom is back to chat how shifting dog training away from control and toward trust, choice, and real communication can help our dogs feel safer and behave better. We dig into why over managing puppies can create anxiety, how to read canine body language, and which simple skills make everyday life easier .  Letting puppies explore safely instead of bubble wrapping their world and why choice and control lower stress and build resilience. We also chat how to notice stress signals like looking away and lip licking and what relaxed body language looks like when trust is real. Irith is co-founder of the Freak’n Awesome Dog Project, which helps people live the life of their dreams with their dogs. She is an education junkie with a long list of letters and credentials after her name, most notably certified professional dog trainer and certified dog behavior consultant.https://thesophisticateddog.com/Send us Fan MailSupport the showFollow The Baroo:Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/baroopup/Blog- https://www.thebaroo.com/Facebook- https://www.facebook.com/baroopet/   Pet parent question or story of canine companionship  to share ?
