    Ep 121 Dog-Dog Interactions 101: When Canine Conversations Go Wrong!

    2026-03-25 | 17 mins.
    Does it sometimes seem like your dog doesn’t quite know how to interact with other dogs? Whether they’re a walking buddy, a family member’s pet or just a random dog that you see out and about, does your dog struggle with those polite (if sometimes a bit playful) dog-to-dog meet and greets? If barking, lunging, snapping or flipping around on the end of the lead is your reality, then this episode is for you! This week, we’re talking about all things interaction and getting to understand the ins and outs of canine conversation. We’ll explore why and how interactions between dogs may be more of a step-by-step process than you realise, why dog reactivity appears and how to identify exactly when and where your dog’s interaction chain might be broken! We’ll also give you some of our top tips for growing your dog’s skills and staying in the moment for easy encounters.

    Whether you are just starting out on your dog-owning journey or your dog has been labelled as having a “behaviour problem”…

    … this episode is for you and is going to give you huge insights!

    Ep 119 Dog Reactivity at Home: Top Tips for Explosive, Unpredictable Behaviour

    2026-03-11 | 13 mins.
    Does your dog go from zero to one hundred in the blink of an eye? One moment they’re relaxed at home, and the next they’re barking, jumping or even biting? You’re not alone! In this week’s episode we’re diving into why our dogs might seem to be unpredictably reactive at home. We’ll explore why our dogs flip from calm to chaotic in an instant, and how seemingly insignificant events, like the neighbour knocking the door, a cat appearing in the garden or post and deliveries arriving, can add up to big reactions. Don’t worry; we’ll be stripping everything right back to basics and helping you to take a fresh look at your dog’s behaviour, as well as equipping you with some handy tips and tricks that you can try to get to the bottom of those unpredictable moments!

    Ep 117 To Feed or Not To Feed: Why Treats Could Be Stalling Your Training Progress & What To Do About It

    2026-02-25 | 12 mins.
    Is your dog constantly x-raying your hands for a treat? Is food ruling your relationship with your dog? Have you ever been worried that your dog cares more about the food you have than you - perhaps they don’t seem that interested in what you’re saying, your training progress has slowed, or it may have even come to a complete standstill. This week we’re discussing a topic that we think every dog owner should know about: what to do when treats seem to take center stage in your behaviour training sessions. We’ll talk about why this can happen over time (so you can avoid those traps) and explore some helpful tips and tricks you can use to shift the spotlight and make YOU the center of your dog’s attention once again!
