The Sociable Dog Podcast
The pod that unlocks the what, why and how of dog behaviour, particularly focusing on fearful and reactive dogs. Half an hour or so of relaxed chat with Si Wooler, the trainer working with Twitter’s most famous rescue, Sophie from Romania, looking at practical training techniques and the science of dog behaviour.

Let's dive a little deeper into fear.
Fear is a complex problem. It has multiple causes, can be easily "installed" and is notoriously difficult to resolve. It can regress without warning even after extensive work and may never be fully "fixed".
In the past the training environment hasn't always done what is best for fearful dogs. But there is hope both for the dogs who are faced with a world they find difficult to navigate and the people supporting them. So this week we're going to talk more about what causes fear, the misconceptions and myths surrounding it and how to best help our four legged friends to overcome it.
