The Dog Mum Mindset Podcast
Lauren Hewitt-Watts
Dog Mum Mindset is on a hiatus, but our episodes live on :) Welcome to the Dog Mum Mindset podcast, a show for you to learn how to develop through being a dog mum (or dad) - and in doing so, how to live confidently, grow, and live their best life possible, alongside their pup. Join me for honest, real and joyful conversations about dogs, life, and everything in between; from behaviour, to self development, wellness, and entrepreneurship. All wisdom is underpinned by special guests & my work as a clinical animal behaviourist.
37. A Mini Masterclass About Keeping Yourself Safe Around Other People’s Dogs
We can do all we can as the best dog parents in the world, but it can be tricky to navigate other people's dogs and it can feel unpredictable about what they can do. However, this episode will bring you all of the tips, experience and observation skills you need to keep you and your dog happy when out and about, and how to identify those 'flashpoint' situations to avoid with other people's dogs. We hope you enjoy and please leave a review if you loved it!
