Finding Support as a reactive dog owner or trainer.
In this episode, we had the honor of sitting down and chatting with Jess Adam of Handlers and Humans to discuss what they do. Handlers and Humans is the brain child of Jess combining her experience as a therapist with her experience as a reactive dog parent.
We recorded this during a LIVE! Session for our Reactive and Aggressive Facebook Group (Free to join) https://www.facebook.com/groups/ReactiveAggressiveDog

How to find a REAL Pro?
Listen dealing with the emotional turmoil that comes with finding a professional can be a lot and these are some ways to help avoid that or navigate through it if you're dealing with it already. Our goal is to prevent you from hiring the wrong person and having to deal with the fallout from that decision. Not every trainer is right for every client that just is not reality so one of the things that we want to focus on is how you can find what's best for you and how you can separate for people who are pretending to be professionals and aren't following evidence-based best practices and those who actually are professionals. If you wanna delve into our 45 minute YouTube video specifically to help you understand how to navigate all of the marketing buzzwords and really really solidify your choice in this process you can go to our YouTube channel and I will put the link below to the actual video and you can listen to it while doing something else or you can watch it. https://youtu.be/qm6NbYOeV3M
Bringing home baby
Preparing your home and your dog for bringing home an Infant, Toddler, Tween, or Teenager.
Why the social norm IS NOT OKAY!!
Once upon a time, it was the social norm for women to not have credit cards, be allowed to vote, to even work.
Then we progressed with advocation & education.
This is the phase we are at with dogs. Credentialed doesn't always mean that they will adhere to guidelines. Understand what each organization stands for and if you are EVER uncomfortable stand up for you and your dog.
Setting Realistic Goals
Breaking up the chaos of behavioral goal setting for us, our clients, and our dogs. Reduce compassion fatigue and burnout and help alleviate the isolation and elf doubt feelings that can often accompany these types of situations and cases.
