199 | Is Socialization Making Your Dog Worse? What Fearful & Reactive Dogs Actually Need
Hey Dog Lover🐾
Have you been told your dog just needs more socialization?
Does your dog seem more overwhelmed the more you expose them to things?
What if more exposure isn’t the answer… and might actually be making things worse?
In this episode, I’m sharing why socialization isn’t always the solution so you can stop overwhelming your dog and start building real confidence. We dive into how exposure without safety can create more fear, why reactive and sensitive dogs need a different approach, and what to focus on instead to help your dog feel secure in the world.
Hope you enjoy this one!…
