If life is about balance, then in dog training, how much time do you spend on accepting, loving and holding a container of peace and non judgement towards your dog? Or are you always trying to fix, correct or change your dog?
The energy of wanting, desiring or having to change a dog (or anyone else for that matter) doesn’t feel good for the one on the receiving end of that energy. Sure, we can want a better life for our dog, hope they are able to feel happier, safer, more fulfilled, but what about also putting some of that energy into loving who they are in this moment- flaws and all?
What if you loved yourself, flaws and all, in this moment too? What would life feel like for you? What would life look like for you if you loved yourself perfectly imperfect?
We are born perfect in the eyes of our Creator. Nothing can ever break us. There is no healing that needs to happen only remembering our own perfection, wholeness and divinity. Maybe even remembering that these challenges that happen to us are actually happening for us so that we may learn that we were always whole, never broken, always loved, never abandoned.
I truly believe reiki to be an incredible place for many dog professionals to start learning about energy healing. I love what I’ve learned so far of Kathleen’s Letting Animals Lead the Way to Healing Method.
When we can start being Reiki rather than just giving reiki to our animals, we can start understanding our animals more deeply and having a really magical relationship with our animals.
You can learn more about Kathleen Animal Reiki Source and her reiki method here https://animalreikisource.com Kathleen's offering our listeners a 3 day animal reiki challenge to introduce you to reiki and what Kathleen does.

Kara Udziela is an animal communicator, energy alchemist, medical intuitive, and spiritual teacher with over a decade of experience in transforming the lives of thousands of companion animals whose animal guardians carry struggles such as: anxiety, aggression, chronic illness, or the midwifing of death.
Today Kara talks about how giving dogs appropriate jobs can help to calm them down and give them a more aligned job as many people give their dogs jobs (knowingly or unknowingly) that negatively impact their training and well being. She believes too many people give their dogs jobs of being their protectors and healers and what kind of impact that could have on a dog's energy. She shares better jobs for our dogs like help mate or soul mate. You'll have to listen to learn other incredible jobs you can give your dog!
I love how Kara shares with us how she helps dog trainers expand their tool box through partnering up with her so she can support the client and dog through animal communication and healing modalities life EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) or through teaching them healing modalities and animal communication to directly help their own clients. What an incredible world this would be if dog trainers added these tools to their tool box!
Kara shares her 5 Pillars of Peace for Happy Pets that have helped her client's dogs learn to live happier, more relaxed lives with their people. These pillars are: Purpose, Environment, Assertion - training, Communication and Energy work and body work.

Together we’re developing an online course to teach others how to run a dog day school!
What is Day School for dogs?
Day School is a place where dogs learn socialization skills including:
👍🏼how to socialize with other dogs
👍🏼 how to read other dogs body language and yield to those signals asking for space
👍🏼 learn how to relax around other dogs and feel safe
👍🏼 learn how to be neutral around other dogs and have an off switch
👍🏼 it’s a place where the trainer can advocate for each dog in a small intimate environment, using every interaction as a training opportunity to build emotional control, confidence and agency.
Jess uses the techniques in our @mydogcamp online course plus she’s added her own wealth of knowledge and twist on things. We’re so excited to bring you this new course coming out later in year 💓
What you’ll learn in the online course:
💥 how to socialize nervous, hyperactive and anxious dogs

This is a 4 part class and it’s available online! Hurry! It starts Monday!
Your dog is in your life for a reason. You’re on a beautiful spiritual path together to learn from one another.
Let me take you on a journey to help you connect the dots as to why you’re both in each other’s lives and help you heal your dog through healing yourself.
You are responsible for 50% of the relationship with your dog. So take responsibility for it.
Your dog isn’t giving you a hard time they’re having a hard time and it’s time for dog training to shift on the other end of the leash for a total holistic approach to training.
The mind is a powerful thing to waste. Understanding how to use it to heal yourself and your dog is the new wave of dog training as we ascend into states of higher vibration, more light and unconditional love as a collective consciousness.
Contact me to learn more about Healing Wisdom From Your Dog a lecture and journaling Workshop happening in Williston, VT and possibly online!

These two have been non stop playing since Queen Gabby passed on 👑
My favorite memories of Gabby were pulling up next to other cars in the dog camp vehicle and watching the joy Gabby spread to others when they would see she was singing 🎤
Thank you all for the kind words and stories you shared this week!!
I haven’t cried much since reading all your stories. Your stories and kind words helped me remember how much she has helped so many people and dogs in her life.
She made a lot of people laugh through her sassy and ‘don’t care’ personality. When I think of her I think of the good times we had and how much fun we use to have.
If you didn’t know her well, Gabby was;
🙌🏽 bossy
🙌🏽 didn’t like being petted much or much attention
🙌🏽 independent
🙌🏽 food obsessed
🙌🏽 loved music and singing
🙌🏽 loved the car and could ride for hours
🙌🏽 didn’t care for other dogs
🙌🏽 loved long walks
🙌🏽 hated coats, harnesses and booties
🙌🏽 helped so many dogs socialize for the first time again because she didn’t give a hoot about them
🙌🏽 was great everywhere we went because she ignored people
🙌🏽 loved to beg for food
🙌🏽 was a great teacher
🙌🏽 helped other dog camp providers and dog trainers break into this business
🙌🏽 I could also bring her to a dog event and 200 dogs could pass her tied up to a 8 foot leash and she’d greet everyone nicely unless she needed to put one in their place
🙌🏽 loved SUP boarding
🙌🏽 hated swimming
🙌🏽 loved all foods and begging for food (which I happily let her)
🙌🏽 since she was a puppy she was always good at off leash recall
🙌🏽 has trained and raised a lot of puppies for us
🙌🏽 lived 14 years loved and healthy everyday by my side.
How could I not be so grateful and happy when I look back at our life?
Thank you for making that so clear 💗
I’m so sad and happy to say this!
