Welcome to mindfulness & dogs, the podcast for dog guardians who are walking the path of reactivity with heart, courage, and compassion. I’m Biggi, coach, dog trainer and longtime student of mindfulness with a big heart for the messy sides of living with dogs. This episode is a special milestone - our very first guest interview! I’m delighted to welcome Yvette Potter of UrbanK9 Gibraltar to the podcast. We had such a meaningful (and fun!) conversation about how mindfulness and nervous system awareness can deeply shape life with our dogs. We explored how these practices support both ends of the leash, especially in challenging moments. And we had such a lot to talk about that I split our conversation into two parts. Tune in to part 1 to learn how understanding yourself can help you understand and support your dog even more. If you want to get in touch with Yvette, send a DM to her Instagram Profile. If you’d like to go deeper, I invite you to download my free guide “Support Your Leash Reactive Dog. 3 mindful tools to help your dog calm down on walks”.

If your enjoying the show, I’d love for you to subscribe or share it with a fellow dog guardian in need of support. And if you feel like leaving a review, that would really make my day. You can always find out more about me and what's new on my Instagram profile and on Facebook. And I'd love to hear your feedback on how the episode resonated with you.
