Rethinking Reactivity
Conditioning Resilience for Reactive Dogs with Bobbie Bhambree
Join the leash reactivity mentorship starting this September 7th. Spots are going quickly!
Reactive dogs face a lot of stressors in their daily lives, and for many, their ability to "bounce back" gets worse with time.
What is resilience? What is going on when a dog's resilience is low? How can you help condition your dog to increase their resilience?
In this episode I talk with Bobbie Bhambree CDBC, CPDT-KA on her and Dr. Kathy Murphy's Reframing Resilience framework. We cover:
- The neurobiology of resilience
- What factors contribute to low resilience in dogs
- Considerations for building resilience for reactive dogs
- The importance of physical and mental health as the pillar of resilience
- And so much more
