Being “present” when we are with our dogs

On this episode, we are discussing the importance of “Being present” when we’re with our dogs. It’s easy to get caught up in the distractions. There are teams of very smart people getting  paid big bucks to keep us distracted.

But when we’re not fully present with our dogs, we miss out on important cues and behaviors that can help us understand and respond to their needs. That’s why being present with your dog is so important.

• When you’re fully engaged in the moment and not distracted by other things, you can better understand and respond to your dog’s needs and behaviors.
• You can pick up on subtle cues and body language that may indicate how they’re feeling or what they’re trying to communicate.
• Create a deeper bond with your dog and improve your communication.

Which is essential for being the best owners we can be.
