EP08 Resource Guarding

jeudi 18 juin 2026 • Durée 26:05

Dr. Caryn and The Happy Meemaw discuss resource guarding in dogs.

What is it? What causes it? How Serious is it? Can it be fixed?

Two Critical Mistakes to Avoid

Never Punish the Growl: If your dog growls, she is communicating that she is uncomfortable. If you punish the growl, you might successfully stop the noise, but you haven't fixed the underlying fear. Instead, you create a dog that suppresses their warning signs and resorts straight to a bite.

Don't Use "Alpha" Techniques: Forcing your dog onto her back, pinning her, or yelling will only validate her fear that you are a threat to her resources, making the guarding significantly worse.

When to Call a Professional: If your dog is snapping, lunging, or biting, or if there are children in the household, do not attempt behavior modification on your own. Reach out to a certified positive-reinforcement behavior consultant (such as an IAABC or CPDT-KA certified trainer) to help you set up a safe, customized plan. Or just Ask Dr. Caryn for help!

The Show that Started it All - The Happy Meemaw interviews Dr. Caryn and learns about her lifelong journey that eventually landed her in Colonial Beach VA Helping Dogs Fix Their People.

The Happy Meemaw says:

"This week's podcast features a woman who faced adversity in her youth but persevered, took care of her family, followed her dream, and has achieved many successes in the animal, non-profit, and business world.

"I met Dr. Caryn Self Sullivan several years ago when she served on her town council, and I had the opportunity to get to know her better as part of a local business networking group. Her story is inspirational for anyone who might feel they've missed opportunities. It's never too late to get started.

"I especially love this conversation because Dr. Caryn was a little nervous about doing the podcast. Still, nothing could've been more natural for her than to talk about her life, her accomplishments, and all the passions she's turned into positives.

"This week is especially great for dog owners, as we discuss Dr. Caryn's specialty of "helping dogs fix their people," as well as her fabulous boutique, which offers a range of items for pets and their owners. She has years of experience working with dogs and their owners. I encourage you to comment here or on Dr. Caryn's website with any questions you may have for her."
