106 | Does Your Dog Really Need More Obedience Training?

Hey Dog Lover,🐾
How many times have you said, “My dog just needs more training…”?

Here’s the truth bomb:
If your dog knows “sit,” “stay,” and “come” (even inconsistently)—they’re trained.

So if they’re still not listening, it’s not about obedience.
It’s about relationship.

In this episode, we’ll explore:

• Why more training won’t fix a communication gap

• How obedience and leadership are not the same thing

• When to use structure… and when to just be with your dog

• Why some dogs love obedience—and others resist it for good reason

• How understanding your dog’s Dogonality™ will change everything about how you show up

If your gut says “There has to be another way,”—you’re right. And that way? Starts here.

Hope you enjoy this one!

Talk soon,

Tracy
