Hey Dog Lover,🐾

Think your dog just needs more exercise?

Think again. In this episode, we’re digging into one of the most overlooked aspects of behaviour and well-being: fulfilment.

It’s not about endless fetch or racking up steps—it’s about understanding what truly lights your dog up and letting them express that joy in ways that build connection, not chaos.

You’ll hear:

• Why fulfilment is non-negotiable for pro-social behaviour

• How our dogs' different breeds and genetics show us what true joy looks like for THEM.

• Easy ways to create a more enriching, purposeful life for your dog (and yourself!)

This episode is your permission slip to get a little weird with your dog ( who cares what the neighbours think of you anyway. 😀😂)

Hope you enjoy this one.

Don’t forget to comment, share, and leave a 5 ⭐️ written review —it helps more people discover the heart of what dogs really need.

Next Steps:Join the Fearless Framework Course and community—a powerful space for dog lovers ready to ditch behaviour battles and lean into leadership, connection, and a truly fulfilling life with their dogs. 🎉 Life with your dog is awesome, but it's better with friends. What are you waiting for.

I can't wait to share this amazing journey with you!

Hey Dog Lover,🐾

Have you ever felt that gut punch of fear when your dog lunges, growls, or just gets a little too intense? This episode is for you.

I’m pulling back the curtain on a real moment with my horse Sunny—and sharing how fear, uncertainty, and doubt (aka the FUD Factor) can derail our leadership in a heartbeat.

We’ll unpack:

• Why fear is a leadership killer—and what to do about it

• How your nervous system is your training strategy

• Why responding > reacting matters more than any obedience cue

This is a vulnerable, must-listen episode if you’ve ever thought, “I love my dog, but I’m scared of how they behave.”

If you ever doubted your ability to handle an off-leash dog.

If you have ever wondered: "Do I have what it takes?"

Hope you enjoy this one. 💜

Remember to comment, share, and leave a ⭐️5-star rating!

It will help more overwhelmed dog lovers find their way back to calm.

🐾 Hey there, Dog Lover,

If you’ve ever felt like your relationship with your dog revolves around treats, you’re not alone.
The truth is, treats can buy attention... but they can’t build a relationship.

In today’s episode, we're diving into what it really means to lead with trust—not treats.
We’ll talk about why real leadership isn’t about transactions or constant reinforcement, but about becoming the calm, steady, trustworthy presence your dog can depend on—no cookie needed. 🚫🍪

Hope you enjoy this one!
Be sure to share it with your dog-loving friends. 🐾

Cheers!
Tracy

🐾 Hey there, Dog Lover,

We all want our dogs to like us—it's only natural.
But when you're working with a fearful or reactive dog, likeability isn't the goal. Trust is.

In today’s episode, we’re digging into the hidden trap of trying to "win" your dog's affection—and why focusing on being trusted instead of liked changes everything.
We'll explore what real leadership looks like (hint: it's not about bribery or constant cheerleading) and how you can start showing up as the steady, calm, trustworthy presence your dog actually needs.

And yes... we're having a little fun with a classic "Pick Me, Choose Me" reference from Grey’s Anatomy too. 😉🐾

Hope you enjoy this one!
Be sure to share it with your dog-loving friends who might need a little reminder that they’re already enough. 💜

Cheers!

Tracy

You want connection, confidence… and if we’re honest, you probably want them to be “good.”
