Nearly losing my dog and gaining new perspectives

Thu, 07 Nov 2024 18:00:00 +0000

Trigger Warnings:
- This episode discusses serious dog illness and human body image difficulties

In this episode I share a recent experience of my dog becoming very ill and what we went through that day. I also talk about how upset I was at the thought I might lose him, but due to my own body image concerns I had never had taken decent pictures with him. In my distress that became a HUGE focus in my mind and an anchor for my emotions to cling on to.

My hope is that this episode will help you if you also worry about your appearance and this currently stops you from taking pictures with your dog, or other loved ones in your lives.

Internal V External: For Dogs Who Don't Seem To Be Improving

Wed, 09 Oct 2024 19:00:00 +0100

Lots of dogs who exhibit stress behaviours don't appear to be improving emotionally or behaviourally, even with appropriate intervention and support. Now there may be many reasons why they aren't feeling better, however, sometimes there is something less obvious, yet really important, happening internally.

That internal shift is what we focus on in this episode.

If Your Dog Is Your Reason To Stay (In Honour of Suicide Awareness Month)

Tue, 24 Sep 2024 13:00:00 +0100

Trigger Warning: This episode has a general discussion about suicide.

September is World Suicide Awareness Month.

This is such an important topic to raise awareness for, because there is STILL a stigma around poor mental wellbeing or mental health.

Suicide is one of those topics that many people are scared to talk about, whether you are experiencing suicidal thoughts or feelings, or someone is telling you that they are experiencing suicidal thoughts or feelings.

The world has thankfully moved on in being able to discuss things like depression or anxiety more openly. However, sadly, there are MANY mental health related topics that are still very much taboo. Suicide is one of them.

In talking about it, I hope that fewer people feel alone with these feelings, because it truly can be an experience ANY of us can go through, plus what better way than to put a doggie spin on things!

Do you feel guilty as a dog parent?

Mon, 09 Sep 2024 13:00:00 +0100

Guilt is one of the primary negative emotions that I hear about most, when working with devoted dog parents.

It makes sense, because we love our dogs so much, we are very attuned to any perceived shortcomings in our ability to provide them with the very best life!

In this episode I offer some quick, simple tips to help you to do more/less with your dog, dependent on where your guilt stems from

Think SCAR

Mon, 09 Sep 2024 12:00:00 +0100

Do you ever find yourself in a situation with your dog where they (and possibly you too!) are experiencing some big emotions?? It could be fear, excitement, anxiety, frustration or even sadness.

It can be hard to connect with our dogs in these moments and leave them feeling unsupported and us feeling frustrated or guilty.

In this episode I talk through a simple mnemonic to help you in these situations!

Am I rewarding bad behaviour?

Tue, 20 Aug 2024 18:00:00 +0100

Lots of dog caregivers worry about accidentally rewarding their dog for "bad" or "unwanted" behaviours. The concern is that offering food, other rewards, or engaging with the dog when they are doing undesirable things such as barking, jumping or whining will make the behaviour worse.

I hope this episode will provide some reassurance!

Should I let my dog insert activity here?

Sun, 04 Aug 2024 20:00:00 +0100

A commonly asked question or group of questions that I get as a behaviourist, start with "should I let my dog"...

This is usually followed up by...

Sleep on the bed
Go on the furniture
Seek support/attention from me
Bark
Share my food
Walk ahead of me

etc etc etc

Sun, 19 Feb 2023 07:00:00 +0000

Obedience isn't natural

Fri, 30 Sep 2022 18:00:00 +0100

So many of us are so keen to do everything we can to make our dogs' lives the best that they can be....but so many of us also put ourselves at the end of the line when it comes to giving out care, and giving ourselves what we need....so that we can then be there for our dogs and other important figures in our lives.

Help Your Dog To Understand You Better With These Human Training Games

Sat, 23 Apr 2022 15:00:00 +0100

Often we have high expectations of our dogs. Expecting them to make sense of what we are asking from them, even though we can be quite confusing sometimes!

One of the key skills that makes things a little easier on your dog is your timing. If you can time things correctly it's easier for them to understand when they've done something right, so they can do more of it!

It is also makes it less likely that you will reward the wrong things and accidentally reinforce behaviours that you aren't so keen on.

In this episode I talk through some fun little exercises that you can do, without your dog, to improve your timing :)

What would your dog buy with their lottery ticket?

Thu, 24 Mar 2022 15:00:00 +0000

"If you won the lottery what is....."

- The first thing you'd buy?
- The first person you'd help?
- Would you quit your job?
- Start your own business or charity?

Listener Question: "How Do I Help My Dog To Settle When He's Aroused & Highly Worked Up

Mon, 21 Mar 2022 08:00:00 +0000

Today I am answering a question asked by one of our lovely listeners, Lauren.

Lauren asked "how do I get my dog to settle when he is aroused and highly worked up?"

This is something that is often thought about in relation to puppies or young dogs, but in my experience lots of adult dogs experience this too and it can feel very tricky to manage.

In this episode I outline three things to help!

One Simple Tweak That Will Make A Huge Difference To Your Relationship With Your Dog

Thu, 23 Dec 2021 21:00:00 +0000

Sometimes when we feel frustrated with our ability to train our dogs, or we feel things aren't progressing as might like, we ask "what am I missing?", or "what am I doing wrong?", or "what do I need to change?"

There is sadly rarely a simple answer to those questions as our relationships with our dogs are so multi-faceted and there can be so many variables at play.

HOWEVER, in this case, this one tweak in your communication with your dog can make a world of difference and it costs you absolutely nothing in terms of time, money, or effort.

Have a listen and let me know if this helped you!

Helping your dog (and managing your guests!) this Christmas!

Mon, 20 Dec 2021 14:00:00 +0000

It's Christmas!

Whether your adore christmas, or you sit firmly in the "can't wait until it's over" camp, maybe you are also worried about how to manage your dog and your guests during the festive period.

I think often a lot of the focus is put on "managing the dog", whether that's trying to help them not to get too excited, to get them to calm down quickly and stop them jumping on people, or to find ways of distracting them from getting too overwhelmed.

Sure, we talk about that a little in this episode, but the REAL good stuff is about how to MANAGE YOUR GUESTS in your dog's home!

If you liked this episode and you know some other pet parents that might struggle this Christmas, I would be so grateful if you could share the episode with them too!

Thu, 09 Dec 2021 09:00:00 +0000

In this episode I run you through my strategy for teaching skills to our dogs. So much of successful training is about layering....putting in the little, tiny steps that get you closer to the desired result!

The thing is that often we aren't aware of quite how difficult something is that we are trying to teach...breaking it down into these four categories of understanding will help!

Avoid These Separation Anxiety Pitfalls!

Thu, 04 Nov 2021 11:00:00 +0000

Do you live with a dog struggling with Separation Anxiety? You are not alone! In fact there are huge numbers of dogs and owners searching for a solution.

The good news about Separation Anxiety is that it is treatable, however, it does take time, dedication and support to help you get your dog to a better place. Getting the support of a force-free trainer or behaviourist (preferably one that specialises in SA) is invaluable,

However, even if that's not an option for you, in this episode I talk through some of the biggest pitfalls I commonly see, which can derail effective separation anxiety training.

What is the balance between trying to change my dog's behaviour v adapting to fit the dog I have?

Thu, 26 Aug 2021 13:00:00 +0100

Anxiety and the 4 Fs: Don't Ask Your Reactive Dog To Sit

Sun, 18 Jul 2021 12:00:00 +0100

We've all felt anxious or fearful many, many times during our lives and our dogs are no different. We're all hard wired to protect ourselves from perceived threats around us, however, the problem comes when our brain and body get confused and "protect" us against something that really means us no harm.

In this episode you'll hear:

- About the 4 Fs and how you can identify these in your dog and help them to feel better
- Why asking your dog to sit, down, or watch me when they are scared probably won't help them
- I also take you through one of my favourite training games, Apples, Oranges & Bananas. You can check this out here: https://app.searchie.io/watch/ZrDeE7J7DG

Should I ignore my dog when they bark, whine, cry??

Sun, 04 Jul 2021 21:00:00 +0100

Barking, crying, whining...all vocalisations are part of normal dog communication. Sometimes though, through our own frustration we can miss the messages that our dogs are trying to give us.

Popular advice is to ignore sounds our dogs make in the hope they stop doing it. Unfortunately this does nothing to strengthen your bond with your dog and it does nothing to help them manage the emotions behind the sounds (anxiety, fear, excitement etc).

In this episode you'll hear:

- How to understand your dog's vocalisations
- How to help your dog feel more comfortable so that troublesome vocalisations start to reduce
