EBD111 Focus On What's Important

Are you getting in the way of building the future of your dreams with your dog? When we welcome a dog into our lives, we usually dream of living in perfect harmony together with (preferably) no ‘unwanted behavior’ exhibited by our dogs. This pretty much sums up the common ‘vision’ that many dog moms have before they bring a dog into their lives. However, many dog moms soon realize that achieving their dream life with their dogs will take time, care, attention, love, and a lot of patience. Kathy has worked with countless dog moms over the years and during this time, she has discovered that many of them make the mistake of putting their focus on unimportant things. They became so focused on these things that they can’t see that they are already living a happy and fulfilling life with their dogs. So, in this special episode of Enlightened By Dogs, Kathy challenges you to start focusing on the right things – things that will help you to create the dream life you’ve always wanted with your dog.
