Hey there Dog Lover,

Today, we’re getting real about why your fearful dog may still be reactive, even after you’ve tried all the training tricks in the book.

The truth is, it’s not just about what your dog is doing—it’s about mindset, communication, and yes, even the equipment you’re using.

Here’s what we’ll break down:

• Mindset: Are you focusing on ‘fixing’ your dog or paying attention to how you’re feeling about it? (Spoiler: Your mindset might be the missing key.)
• Clear communication: It’s not just about what you don’t want your dog to do—does your dog even know what you want them to do?
• Equipment: The right tools make all the difference. Are you unknowingly using gear that’s making things worse?

Buckle in... I am talking about the controversial reality of dog training equipment😳

Let’s figure out what’s really going on and get you and your dog on the path to a calmer, more confident life together.

Hope you enjoy it!
