7 Tips To Avoid Overwhelm When Training Your Anxious Dog.
Or when learning new things yourself!
Hi Gang
This week, I have experienced first-hand what it is like to take on something completely new and be expected to know how to do it all at once.
I’ve started teaching English to speakers of other languages, and it’s a really steep learning curve.

Our dogs do not have that luxury.
Anxious dogs can find training and learning new things quite stressful, and so I’ve put together 7 tips for helping them feel less overwhelmed and more able to succeed.
