:In this episode, I’m diving deep into my personal journey working through reactivity with my young Border Collie, Tali.

We’ll cover controlled exposure, pattern games, engagement strategies, and how short, positive sessions can make a big difference.Plus, I’m excited to announce my upcoming 6-week online course focused on helping reactive dogs and their owners build confidence and calm through structured training plans.
