DogSpeak: Redefining Dog Training Why Modern Life Is So Stressful for Our Canine Companions
In today’s world, our dogs live surrounded by constant stimulation—noisy neighborhoods, busy households, unpredictable schedules, and limited opportunities to simply be dogs. In this episode, we explore why modern life can be so stressful for our canine companions and how this environment impacts their behavior, emotions, and overall well-being.
You’ll learn how factors like lack of rest, overexposure to triggers, and even our own stress levels can influence a dog’s nervous system. We’ll also share practical ways to help your dog find balance, from creating predictable routines to using sensory enrichment and calming techniques that support regulation and resilience.
If you’ve ever wondered why your dog seems on edge—or how to bring more calm back into their world—this episode will help you see life from your dog’s point of view and make meaningful changes that reduce stress for both of you.
