Get to know Sandra

"In dog training, there is sometimes talk of 'changing emotions' to solve problem behaviours. But sometimes the dog needs to feel angry or sad. And then we shouldn't apply traditional training in an attempt to replace anger or sadness with treats and play. It's important that dogs are allowed to feel, even difficult emotions. "
