Your dog isnāt giving you a hard time. But ā¦what if theyāre not simply having a hard time, either?
What if thereās something much deeper going on?
Something that explains why your dog can be absolutely fine one minute and completely lose their mind the next.
Why they bark, lunge, growl, guard, chase, panic or seemingly ignore everything youāve spent months teaching them.
And why, despite doing everything youāre told, you still feel like youāre missing something.
Hereās what Iāve learned from working with dogs over the yearsā¦
We spend far too much time trying to change what dogs DO, without properly understanding WHY they do it.
We label them reactive. Aggressive. Stubborn. Dominant. Anxious.
Then we start training.
But behaviour is also biology. Genetics. Emotion. Instinct. Learning. Conflict. And sometimes pain.
And until we start looking beneath the behaviour, weāre often trying to solve a problem we havenāt fully understood.
Thatās exactly why I wrote The Dark Side of Dogs. š¤
Not to give you another collection of training exercises.
Not to promise that three simple steps will fix your dog.
But to challenge the way you think about dogs in the first place.
Because when you change the way you understand behaviour, you start making very different decisions about how to work with it.
And sometimes, thatās the breakthrough youāve been searching for.
š The Dark Side of Dogs is available now for just Ā£11.99.
If youāre the kind of dog owner who wants to understand more, question what youāve been taught and look beyond the obviousā¦

The behaviour you see is only part of the story.
