Put Down Your Backpack

Welcome to mindfulness & dogs, the podcast for dog guardians who are walking the path of reactivity with heart and compassion.

Every guardian of a reactive dog knows the heaviness that can build up over time. So today, I want to offer you a story, and a simple guided practice, that may help lighten that load just a little. ---------------------------------------- If you’d like to go deeper, I invite you to download my free guide “Support Your Leash Reactive Dog. 3 mindful tools to help your dog calm down on walks”.  It’s full of simple, practical tools you can start using right away.

The Power of Stillness. Featuring Yvette Potter of The Urban Canine Gibraltar

Welcome to mindfulness & dogs, the podcast for dog guardians who are walking the path of reactivity with heart, courage, and compassion. I’m Biggi, coach, dog trainer and longtime student of mindfulness with a big heart for the messy sides of living with dogs. This episode is a special milestone - our very first guest interview! I’m delighted to welcome Yvette Potter of UrbanK9 Gibraltar [https://www.instagram.com/urbank9gibraltar?igsh=aThuZXl0Z2ducnNj] to the podcast. We had such a meaningful (and fun!) conversation about how mindfulness and nervous system awareness can deeply shape life with our dogs. We explored how these practices support both ends of the leash, especially in challenging moments. And we had such a lot to talk about that I split our conversation into two parts. Tune in to part 1 to learn how understanding yourself can help you understand and support your dog even more.

When Your Inner Child Walks the Dog

Welcome to mindfulness & dogs, the podcast for dog guardians who are walking the path of reactivity with heart, courage, and compassion. I’m Biggi, coach, dog trainer and longtime student of mindfulness with a big heart for the messy sides of living with dogs. Have you ever noticed how our dog seems to reflect more than just our training or daily routines? Sometimes, they show us the very strategies we’ve built to protect ourselves, and, if we look closely, the deeper needs behind them. In this episode, I want to share how my late dog Charlie became that kind of mirror for me. Tuning into these reflections can open up the door to more compassion, healing, and connection with our dogs and with ourselves. Listen in and learn how your past influences your dog’s present and what to do about it. ---------------------------------------- If you’d like to go deeper, I invite you to download my free guide “Support Your Leash Reactive Dog. 3 mindful tools to help your dog calm down on walks”.  It’s full of simple, practical tools you can start using right away.
