Enlightened By Dogs: Living with Cooperation, Not Obedience - A podcast by Kathy Kawalec

What is responsible role-modeling and what does that look like? Why does it matter? How does it positively impact your relationship with your dogs? These are questions you may not feel the need to ask, but as they say: we don’t know what we don’t know! In this episode, Kathy is giving you one of the most powerful tools to put in your toolbox to ensure that you’re loved and respected enough to be listened to by your furry friends! After all, Monkey see, Monkey do. A lot of what our dogs do mimics our behaviour perfectly, but without knowing we’re guilty of the same behaviors, we often try to correct our dogs without first correcting ourselves! Want to know how to spot which behaviours to correct? Want to know how your dogs look up to you for guidance? Tune in to this week’s episode of Enlightened By Dogs and put your best foot forward so that your dogs can do the same!   How do you keep a pack of Border Collies happy when they can’t go outside because of landscaping and construction? What does responsible role-modeling look like? Why did Kathy stop looking at the sky? There is huge power and harmony to be found in meeting our dogs’ social needs. Tips to help you practice responsible role-modeling effectively!   “I’m role modeling, and what I mean by that is Iam not acknowledging that there’s anything happening” “I’m just carrying on with my normal stuff as I always do” “They look to me for guidance” “We’re literally expressing with all of us, congruently” “It has nothing to do with us, it’s none of our concern, it’s just life as usual” “Life is one big experiment” “I am a role model” “Dogs easily mirror our behaviour”   Want More of Kathy?
