In this episode, we dive into the question: Does a dog owner's anxiety make their dog more anxious? We’ll explore how dogs pick up on their owner's stress and how that tension can create a feedback loop of anxiety. Tune in to learn practical tips for calming yourself and your dog, and discover how a relaxed approach can help build confidence and trust in your pet.
