Episode Description from the Publisher

Hey Dog Lover 🐾Have you tried different harnesses, collars, and training methods only to find that your dog still pulls on leash?Do you feel like you're constantly managing your dog instead of actually enjoying your walks together?Have you ever wondered if leash pulling isn't actually a leash problem at all?In this episode, we're diving into one of the most common struggles dog owners face:Leash pulling.But instead of asking:"How do I stop my dog from pulling?"We're going to explore a different question:"Why doesn't my dog want to walk with me?"Because there is a big difference between a dog walking beside you and a dog choosing to walk with you.We'll talk about:🐾 Why leash pulling is often a symptom, not the real problem🐾 The difference between position and partnership🐾 How fulfillment impacts behaviour🐾 Why the environment may be more valuable than you realize🐾 What relevance actually looks like in real life🐾 Why becoming someone your dog wants to stay connected to changes everythingWe'll also explore:relationshipinfluenceengagementcuriosityfulfillmentand why some dogs don't need more training...they need a better reason to stay connected.Because my goal has never been to create dogs that walk beside me.My goal has always been to create dogs that want to walk with me.Hope you enjoy this one!
