Understanding Emotional Regulation In Dogs To Create Calm #217

Visit us at shapedbydog.com    Do you know how your dog or puppy self-regulates or dysregulates? Or how your dog self-soothes? Most dog owners don't, and it could be the root of behavioral challenges around your home. Dogs show dysregulation or self-regulation much like humans. Your dog's responses aren't the same as choosing right from wrong but a reflection of emotional regulation. Today I'm breaking down what healthy self-regulation looks like and how to recognize and help your dog's coping mechanisms for a happier, healthier co-existence.   In the episode you'll hear:   • What you need to know before a visiting dog arrives in your home. • How to recognize self-regulation and dysregulation in dogs. • The definition of canine self-regulation. • That dogs don't choose right from wrong. • What dysregulation looks like in dogs. • That resilience to stress is a byproduct of healthy self-regulation. • That puppies or rescue dogs cannot self-regulate instantly. • The possible signs of dysregulation puppies and dogs display. • Factors that contribute to canine dysregulation. • About my own puppy's and rescue's dysregulation. • How environment impacts self-regulation. • About normalizing certain conditions to help dogs. • What "destructive" dogs are really communicating. • The ways puppies and dogs naturally self-regulate. • About canine self-soothing behaviors and coping mechanisms. • How co-regulation facilitates self-regulation for dogs.   Resources:   1.
