Winter Struggles: Helping Dogs Cope with Snow, Salt, and Sensory Overload

In this episode, I explore how winter reshapes a dog’s sensory world and why cold weather can disrupt routines that usually feel easy. I answer listener questions about dogs refusing to potty in the snow, lifting their paws on icy sidewalks, struggling with excess energy, and eating snow nonstop. These aren’t training issues—they’re sensory challenges. I share simple strategies to help your dog feel warmer, safer, and more confident all season long.Book a Session with Me: https://www.sarahhodgson.com/Follow Me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/raisinghappydogsCheck Out My Recommended Products: https://shopmy.us/shop/sarahhodgson This is a public episode.
