Do you know how your dog or puppy self-regulates or dysregulates? Or how your dog self-soothes? Most dog owners don’t, and it could be the root of behavioral challenges around your home. Dogs show dysregulation or self-regulation much like humans. Your dog’s responses aren’t the same as choosing right from wrong but a reflection of emotional regulation. Today I’m breaking down what healthy self-regulation looks like and how to recognize and help your dog’s coping mechanisms for a happier, healthier co-existence.
In the episode you'll hear:
• What you need to know before a visiting dog arrives in your home.
• How to recognize self-regulation and dysregulation in dogs.
• The definition of canine self-regulation.
• That dogs don’t choose right from wrong.
• What dysregulation looks like in dogs.
• That resilience to stress is a byproduct of healthy self-regulation.
• That puppies or rescue dogs cannot self-regulate instantly.
• The possible signs of dysregulation puppies and dogs display.
• Factors that contribute to canine dysregulation.
• About my own puppy’s and rescue’s dysregulation.
• How environment impacts self-regulation.
• About normalizing certain conditions to help dogs.
• What “destructive” dogs are really communicating.
• The ways puppies and dogs naturally self-regulate.
• About canine self-soothing behaviors and coping mechanisms.
• How co-regulation facilitates self-regulation for dogs.
