Ep 113 The Hidden Impact of Hormones on Dog Training and Behaviour

When our female dogs go into season, it can be a bit puzzling for us humans, especially if it’s the first time or they start displaying behaviours that we’ve not seen before! This week we’re diving into one of our most requested topics and taking a close look at the way our dog’s hormones can impact them physically and emotionally while they’re in season. If your female dog doesn’t seem quite like themself - maybe they aren’t enjoying interacting with other dogs or people as much, maybe they suddenly start resource guarding,  or maybe they’ve “gone off” that food they normally love - you’ll learn exactly why it’s not a cause for concern. We’ll also be sharing some ways you can strengthen your relationship with your dog during this time and help them feel a little more “glass half full” in day-to-day life! So if you’re getting ready for your female dog’s first, second or tenth season, tune in now!
