If you’ve ever had a setback in dog training, you are not alone! Setbacks can lead to frustration, but there’s a step-by-step process that harnesses the power of perception to reframe, reclaim, and revitalize our responses. I want to help you turn any setback you may have into an instant success for both you and your dog. When we are in control of our responses, it makes dog training so much easier and a far more positive experience for us, our dogs, and the people around us, even when things go wrong.
In this episode you’ll hear:
• About perceptions and how to recognize and reframe frustration as an opportunity for growth in dog training.
• Insights from Tony Robbins on reframing experiences.
• The significance of establishing realistic expectations for your dog's learning and progress.
• The impact of negative thinking on your training progress.
• The difference between universal truths vs. personal perceptions in training.
• How to focus on Action > Outcome > Response when you reframe your training.
• Tips for determining what aspects of training are within your control.
• How asking yourself better questions will lead you to an empowered outcome.
• The value of seeking support from trainers and communities you align with.
• Tips for evaluating your training sessions to identify areas for improvement and adjust your approach.
• Why you need to start your training journey with self-compassion and understanding.
