In our 20th episode, we’re busting the myth that you can’t teach an old dog new tricks - and showing you why adult dogs often learn faster. We dig into what’s really behind sudden behavior changes (hint: it’s usually life changes like a new baby, a new dog, a move, or even a loss).  Along the way, we share real-life stories of dogs navigating big life transitions - and what their humans did to help them not just cope, but thrive. Learn how to build trust with a dog who, let’s be honest, has been studying you - and taking notes - since the day they came home.

Episode 21 - The Art of the Approach: Reading the Room (and the Tail)

Hosted by the trainers of Woof Academy, Dog Days helps dog owners decode baffling behaviors so they can understand what their dog is really trying to say. Each episode unpacks real-life stories from the field to reveal the mindset behind common challenges like reactivity, disobedience, or sudden aggression — and offers insight into the relationship dynamics that drive them. You won’t find one-size-fits-all training tips here. Instead, you’ll hear from compassionate, often humorous experts who help you build clarity, confidence, and connection with your dog by shifting how you show up. Whether your pup pulls the sheets off the bed or pins other dogs at the park, you’re in good company — and you’re not alone.
