Eps 144. Reactivity Is Not Shameful

from The Dynamic Dog Owner · host Debbie Potter

Debbie talks about the judgement that quietly follows owners of reactive dogs, sparked by yet another online comment designed to shame rather than help. She unpacks why reactivity is not aggression, why it is actually a sign of emotional honesty in your dog, and why the owners working through it tend to be the most aware and committed dog people around. Expect a candid look at online opinions, misinformation in the training world, and why basic kindness has quietly slipped out of fashion. A timely reminder that you can never know someone's full story from one walk, one bark, or one badly written comment.| Get your 3 Day Free Trial at The Potter Pawcademy - Start Now! https://potter-pawcademy.mn.co/plans/1820577?bundle_token=01b2cc425e6324dc8f034beb4fc55837&utm_source=manual Get our emails - https://mailchi.mp/potterpaws.co.uk/jointhelist
