Hey Dog Lover 🐾

Does everything feel a little… chaotic right now?

Are your walks feeling harder than they used to?

Have you tried more training, more treats, more techniques… and you’re still wondering why nothing is really changing?

In this episode, I’m sharing why your dog’s behavior might not be a training problem at all — and why adding more commands isn’t the answer.

If the world feels heavy and your home is starting to feel tense, this conversation is for you.

We’re talking about what dogs actually respond to, why traditional methods often fall short, and how to guide your dog to calm without relying on treats, tools, and techniques that haven’t worked long term.

And I’m inviting you to join me inside the Calm Down, Dog! Bootcamp — a free, three-day live experience where we’ll reset the chaos, build leadership, and help you become someone your dog feels safe following.

If you’re ready to stop managing symptoms and start understanding what’s really driving behaviour… this is your next step.

Hope you Enjoy!

Tracy xoxo

Hey Dog Lover! 🐾

Do you feel like you’re just going through the motions with your reactive dog?

Has your world quietly gotten smaller… even though you swore it never would?

Are you surviving with your dog instead of intentionally leading?

In this episode, I’m sharing an honest conversation about survival mode, shrinking leadership, and the difference between going through the motions and intentional movement so you can reconnect with your dog without trying harder or doing more.

Sometimes leadership doesn’t slip away because we explode.

Sometimes it slips away because we quietly withdraw.

If you’ve been feeling heavy, tired, or stuck — not because you don’t care, but because the world feels loud and overwhelming — this episode will help you shift from survival to intentional presence with your dog.

This also marks the beginning of the Calm Down, Dog! Reset happening inside the Bootcamp community — where we focus on doing less, noticing more, and rebuilding steady leadership from the inside out.

Enjoy!

Hey Dog Lover 🐾

Are you trying everything with your reactive or fearful dog… but nothing seems to stick?

Do you find yourself talking more, soothing more, managing more — and still feeling stuck?

Have you ever stopped to ask… what if leadership isn’t about doing more, but about becoming clearer?

We’re breaking down:

• Why “it’s okay” isn’t always helpful

• The difference between clarity and noise

• What dogs actually respond to (hint: it’s not volume)

• How your nervous system affects your dog

• Why your presence matters more than you think

If you’ve ever had that moment of realization — “I didn’t realize how much influence I have” — this episode will shift the way you see yourself in your dog’s world.

Hope you enjoy! xoxox

This isn’t about fixing your dog in three days.
It’s about gaining clarity on what truly needs to shift.
