 ZOOM! There goes your dog chasing after another cyclist, dog, jogger, car…This week we’re tackling one of our most requested topics - why dogs love to chase (and what to do about it!). We’re thinking about exactly why dogs find chasing so exciting and how our dog’s natural instincts can leave us standing, watching as they run after whatever has caught their attention this time! We’ll introduce some really simple tactics to help address this all too common behaviour and how you can speak your dog’s language to help them re-focus on what’s really important - YOU! This is the secret to unlocking relaxing, stress-free off-lead walks and safe, happy dogs. Ready to apply the brakes? Tune in now!
