Brace yourself for a fascinating exploration into the symbiotic stress cycle, where human emotions and canine behaviour collide.
There’s a growing body of scientific evidence that supports what us dog owners have always known; that our dogs are able to pick up on and respond to human emotions and reflect them in their own behaviour.
Owing to their finely-tuned senses, dogs are the ultimate emotional mirrors, shown to be sensitive to the most subtle cues – changes in our heartbeats and body chemistry, subtle facial expressions and vocal tones. This means that if you’re stressed, your dog is more likely to be, but if you’re calm and relaxed, your dog has a better chance of being calm and relaxed too.
The stakes are high, and the stress connection is a two-way street, with human stress triggering a domino effect on dog training, patience, decision-making, memory and focus.
But fear not! We won’t leave you hanging. We unveil some practical solutions to break the stress connection.
