If you’ve ever felt like your dog just won’t listen,
no matter how many cues or commands you’ve practised -
you’re not alone.

Most training focuses on WHAT your dog is doing.

But behaviour is just the surface.

Underneath, there’s emotion, stress, confusion, and overwhelm.

When we shift our focus from fixing our dog's behaviour
to building emotional stability, everything starts to change.

Inside The Reactivity Recovery Trail™, this is exactly what we do -
step by step, at your dog’s pace, in a way that actually works in the real world,
helping your dog feel better so they can behave better.

𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝘄𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗶𝗳 𝗶𝘁’𝘀 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗽𝗼𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗱𝗼𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲?

Like properly change - not just “be better behaved,”
𝒃𝒖𝒕 𝒇𝒆𝒆𝒍 𝒄𝒂𝒍𝒎𝒆𝒓, 𝒉𝒂𝒑𝒑𝒊𝒆𝒓… 𝒍𝒆𝒔𝒔 𝒐𝒏 𝒆𝒅𝒈𝒆 𝒂𝒍𝒍 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒕𝒊𝒎𝒆?

The dog in this video, Pacha, he used to bark at everything.
Visitors, sounds, movement, you name it.

But here he is at the end - calm as anything.
And the difference didn’t come from shouting or telling him off.

It came from working on what was underneath the barking.
Fear. Excitement. Frustration. That feeling of not knowing how to cope.

That's the bit no-one tells you.

And when you do that?
That’s when it everything starts to change.

💛 Whatever your dog’s struggle is -
Barking, pulling, jumping, not listening -
it can get better.

If you’d like a gentle place to begin, just drop me a message.

I have this little mantra I tell myself sometimes when I don't know what choice to make: "𝗜𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗱𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗱𝗼, 𝗱𝗼 𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴."

And honestly?
Sometimes it is the right choice.
Sometimes, a pause helps us reset.

But other times?
That “nothing” becomes a pattern.

We wait.
We wonder.
We stay stuck - not because we’re lazy or unmotivated,
but because we’re completely overwhelmed and have no idea what to do for the best.

💭 “What if I choose the wrong thing?”
💭 “What if it doesn’t work?”
💭 “What if I make it worse?”

So we do nothing.

𝗕𝘂𝘁 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲’𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝘁𝗵: 𝗜𝗳 𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝘀…
𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝘀.

💛 You don’t need to have it all figured out.
💛 You just need a next step that feels doable, kind, and safe.

That’s why I share what I share.

Not to pressure you.
Not to promise magic.

But to 𝗴𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘀𝗺𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗿𝘆.
One little shift forward.
So you can stop circling in the “I don’t know”
and start gently stepping into “maybe this.”

Sometimes we expect progress to look big.

✨ More walks.
✨ Less barking.
✨ Polite greetings.
✨ Total calm.

But real change is often quieter than that.

💛 Choosing calm when you could have shouted.
💛 Turning away from a trigger instead of pushing through.
💛 Playing a short game instead of skipping it altogether.

It’s not nothing.
It’s not a failure.
It’s exactly what progress looks like.

𝗙𝗲𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗯𝗲𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗱?

Like your dog should be further along by now?

Maybe you see other dogs off-lead at the park, or your neighbour’s dog seems to have “calm and friendly” nailed already...

And you find yourself thinking:

👉 "What am I doing wrong?”

👉 “Why aren’t we there yet?”

𝐁𝐮𝐭 𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞’𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐈 𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐭𝐨 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰:

💛 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐧𝐨 𝐬𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐝𝐨𝐠’𝐬 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬.

💛 𝐍𝐨 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐲 𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐨𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐝𝐨𝐠’𝐬 𝐩𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐥.

You’re not behind. You’re on the path.

And every step you take - EVEN the wobbly ones - still count!

📣 If you ever need support or just someone to remind you that you’re not alone on this journey, I’m just a message away.

✨ Progress isn’t a race. It’s a relationship.

And you’re building a wonderful bond with your dog one moment at a time.

I hear this a lot, especially from owners whose dogs are no longer puppies.

Maybe you’ve tried things before that didn’t work.

Maybe you’ve been told your dog “just is the way they are” or “it’s just their breed”.

Maybe you’ve blamed yourself for not starting sooner.

But here’s the truth:

💛 𝗜𝘁’𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝘁𝗼𝗼 𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲 (𝗶𝗻 𝗳𝗮𝗰𝘁, 𝗶𝘁'𝘀 𝗡𝗘𝗩𝗘𝗥 𝘁𝗼𝗼 𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲!).

💛 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲𝗻’𝘁 𝗺𝗶𝘀𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲.

💛 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗱𝗼𝗴 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗮𝗺𝗮𝘇𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝘁𝗼𝗴𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿.

Because helping your dog isn’t about “fixing” them in puppyhood...

It’s about giving them the tools they need, right now, to feel safer, calmer, and more able to cope with the world.

✨ So if you’ve been wondering whether change is still possible…

👉 It is. And you don’t have to do it alone.

Feeling like you have to fix all your dog's behaviour problems at once?

Please don’t.

Because you don’t need a massive plan or an overnight transformation...

𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁.

✨ Five calm minutes before a walk.

✨ A new game while the kettle boils.

✨ Choosing the quiet path today.

✨ Leaving the harness on for 10 minutes before the walk starts.

These aren’t “nothing.” 𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘺’𝘳𝘦 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨.

Because when the overwhelm is real - for you 𝘢𝘯𝘥 your dog - 𝗶𝘁’𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘁𝗹𝗲 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗶𝗴𝗴𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗱𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲. 💛

𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗱𝗼𝗴'𝘀 𝗯𝗲𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗶𝘀𝗻’𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗯𝗹𝗲𝗺

🧠 "My dog barks at everything."
🧠 "He pulls like a train."
🧠 "She completely blanks me when I call her."

They sound like separate problems, don’t they?

𝗕𝘂𝘁 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆’𝗿𝗲 𝗻𝗼𝘁?

What if barking, pulling, jumping, or ignoring you are…
❌ Not a training issue.
❌ Not your dog “being naughty.”
❌ Not you “doing it wrong.”
❌ Not because they are "dominant."
❌ Not because they are "stubborn" or "wilful."

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝗳 𝗶𝘁'𝘀 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗲𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀?
💛 Overwhelm.
💛 Frustration.
💛 Fear.
💛 Excitement...

𝗕𝗨𝗧 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗸𝗶𝗹𝗹𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗹𝗲 𝗶𝘁.

Because when we support the underlying emotion...
That’s when the barking starts to fade.
The pulling eases.
The ignoring becomes engagement.
The chaos becomes calm.

✨ It’s not about fixing one behaviour.
𝗜𝘁’𝘀 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗱𝗼𝗴 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿, 𝘀𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗱𝗼 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿.

That’s what we do inside The Reactivity Recovery Trail™.
It’s not just “dog training.”
It’s a whole new way of living with a dog who finds the world hard sometimes.

Think it’s just your dog that pulls, barks, jumps up, or ignores you when you call?
You’re definitely not alone.

📊 According to new research, over 4 in 10 young dogs show behaviours their owners find difficult.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗼𝗻 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗴𝗴𝗹𝗲𝘀?

🐾 Barking
🐾 Jumping up
🐾 Pulling on the lead
🐾 Recall issues

And here’s the truth:
💛 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘀𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗻’𝘁 𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗮 “𝗯𝗮𝗱” 𝗱𝗼𝗴.

They’re signs of a young dog trying their best - and an owner who deserves more support.

So let’s break the silence 👇

𝗪𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗵 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘀𝗲 𝗱𝗼 𝗬𝗢𝗨 𝗿𝗲𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁?
Drop it in the comments ⬇️

𝗟𝗲𝘁’𝘀 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝗲𝗮𝗰𝗵 𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗶𝘀, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗻𝗼𝗯𝗼𝗱𝘆’𝘀 𝗮𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗷𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗲𝘆. 🐾

Does your dog bark at everything lately?

You know what I'm talking about...
🔊 Barking at the window
🔊 Barking in the garden
🔊 Barking on walks
🔊 Barking at the dishwasher because, apparently, that’s a threat now too 🙃

It’s exhausting. It’s stressful. And it feels like it’s coming from nowhere (and it's never going to stop!), right?

But, honestly, 𝗶𝘁’𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗱𝗼𝗴 𝗯𝗲𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗱𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗰𝘂𝗹𝘁...

𝗜𝘁’𝘀 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗯𝘂𝗰𝗸𝗲𝘁 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗹𝗼𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗴.

When too many little stressors build up, barking becomes their release valve.

So if the barking’s getting louder, more frequent, or just feels endless…
It might be time to focus on emptying that bucket. 🪣💛
