This week, Kim and Neri answer a listener question about a rescue dog who strongly objects to anyone touching their paws. They explore what's happening beneath that reaction and why forcing our way through fear isn't necessarily the answer.
In Advice Given Online, they unpack some interesting puppy-picking advice: choose the puppy hiding away from the others because they'll be the quiet, easy one. But what might that behaviour actually be telling us?
Then, in Debunk a Myth, they tackle the belief that dogs will simply grow out of being frightened of something.
And Speak English Proper returns for another Australian-versus-English showdown.
🐾 Because when we stop asking, \"How do I stop this behaviour?\" and start asking, \"What is my dog trying to tell me?\", everything begins to change.
