Enlightened By Dogs: Living with Cooperation, Not Obedience
Have you noticed that you and your dog(s) need a bit of a stress reset? What does relaxed and happy look like in our everyday life? In this episode, Kathy shares how to identify where you and your dog are happy, what increases your stress, and the importance of living in the safe, calm, happy zone.
“Our brains want to keep us in the comfort zone, even if the comfort zone is the most unbelievably uncomfortable place ever.”
“It takes us stepping back and saying, ‘wait a minute, this isn’t working’.”
“The reason it works and they had such a phenomenal turn around is because the humans committed themselves to being brilliant partners! They committed themselves to understanding, communicating, to not trying to fix their dog, the stuff we normally do and learn how to live.”
