Want to communicate better with your dog? Beyond treats and verbal cues lies a powerful hidden language - your movements and mindset. Learn how simple self-awareness can unlock new levels of trust, behavior, and connection with your best friend.

Through personal stories and practical examples, you’ll discover how your physical state, breathing patterns, and unconscious tensions directly influence your dog's behavior.

Drawing from her experience with both dogs and horses, Mary explains how subtle changes in your movement can create profound shifts in our dogs' responses, illustrating how intentional movement can lead to beautiful synchronicity between you and your dog.
The episode challenges many training programs by highlighting an often-overlooked component: the human’s physical and emotional states. While positive reinforcement remains crucial, Mary reveals how unconscious tension patterns can undermine even the best training efforts.

Key Takeaways:

• Dogs mirror our physical and emotional states more than we realize
• Movement and mindset awareness is crucial for clear communication with your dog
• Relaxation in the handler invites relaxation in the dog
