Rescue Tails – Détails, épisodes et analyse

In this episode, I chat with dog trainer and behaviourist Anthony De Marinis about why our dogs behave differently with different people. 

I asked Anthony to join me for this episode because I noticed that my dog, Rosa, has been behaving very differently when on walks with me versus when she’s with my husband. 

Anthony explains why this happens and why some dogs can display aggressive behaviour when out with one person and not another. We discuss what we can do to address this and some mistakes most of us don’t even realise we’re making. 

As always, I hope you enjoy this episode!

In this episode, I invited behaviourist Angie Cook back to the podcast to talk about reactivity. We chat about why some dogs become reactive or sensitive to other dogs and what to do about it. 

Angie explains that our dogs often give us signals that they are uncomfortable well before they get anywhere near an approaching dog. We talk about how to read those signals and respond to them to avoid the reaction in the first place. 

We also chat about some of the behaviours that dogs naturally do that we as dog parents would prefer they don’t like rolling in dirt, barking or eating poop. Angie explains how suppressing a dog’s natural behaviours can in some cases lead to reactivity so we need to find a balance between managing behaviours and trying to stop them altogether. 

Angie is a certified Dog Behaviourist and a certified Family Dog Mediator with the Dog Door Behaviour Centre in North Carolina.  

As always I hope you enjoy this episode.

Thinking about adopting a rescue dog? Or have you recently adopted one and are struggling to help him or her get settled? 
You’re not alone! It can be really stressful for dogs and their human companions in the first few days, weeks and even months. 

When I brought my dog Rosa home, we had a really tough start. She was too scared to come inside the apartment and slept by the front door for the first few days. She was scared of pretty much everything including cars, people, other dogs. 
This is quite common with rescue dogs. 

But fast forward 6 months later and she’s as happy as can be! 

So in this episode, I want to share some of the lessons I learnt and the 6 things you must do to help make the transition as easy as possible for your new furry friend.

The truth is, not all adoption stories have a happy ending. Many dogs are sent back to the shelter because of behaviour challenges. It’s estimated that 1 in 5 dogs end up back in shelters every year. And we all know that behind every statistic is a heartbreaking story.

This is the problem Emma Jane-Lee is working tirelessly to help solve.

Emma is a teacher, writer, assessment consultant and canine behaviourist based in France.

In this episode I chat with her about what drives people to adopt a dog and why you shouldn’t judge a dog’s behaviour when it’s in the shelter.

Emma offers behavioural support to people who have adopted dogs from her and other local shelters.

Sometimes her work involves dogs who owners want to keep instead of surrender their dog but they have run out of options. She specialises in working with dogs who have a history of aggression and bites.

Emma is a member of the Pet Professional Guild and is a certified shelter dog behaviour consultant by the International Association of Animal Behaviour Consultants.

She’s written a book to help dog trainers. It’s available on Amazon as a digital download and also a paperback. Client-Centred Dog Training is aimed at helping dog trainers get the most out of their human clients.
