The Power of Choice & Consent with Our Dogs

Consent and choice is a powerful thing in our lives, and I believe it's extremely important to empower our dogs to make choices as well. The road to empowerment starts with positive reinforcement methods and allowing dogs to have the choice to participate or not. It's also up to us to be mindful of working with our dogs to help them navigate potentially stressful things like vet visits and grooming procedures with less fear and stress.    Lisa Corcoran, VSA-CDT joins me to discuss how choice and consent impacts our dogs behavior and what we can do as guardians to help our dogs feel better about the world around them.   ** Thank you to our podcast sponsors at Pupford!
