Your dog’s pace is the right pace.

You’re not behind.
You’re not doing it wrong.
You’re building trust—one calm moment at a time.

01/08/2025

Trust isn’t built by pushing through fear.

It’s built by noticing when our dog is afraid—and showing them they don’t have to stay there.

Flooding doesn’t teach a dog that being alone is safe.
It teaches them that no one is listening.

But when we stay within their limits—
when we prove, again and again, that we’ll come back before fear sets in—
something changes.

They stop bracing.
They start to trust.
And they learn that safety is real.

Separation anxiety training isn’t about exposure for exposure’s sake.
It’s about creating experiences of safety.

Over time, those experiences become belief:
“I can be alone, and I will be okay.”

Progress is like building a bridge you walk together—slowly, with care.
You don’t get there by rushing.
You get there by noticing each step… and walking it side by side.

Separation anxiety training isn’t about speed—it’s about connection, understanding, and moving forward together.

What would your dog say helps the most in their separation anxiety training?

Is it the calm environment?
The slow pace?
Your consistent support?

Or maybe it’s something even smaller…

…the way you pause when they’re unsure,
the softness in how you leave,
the moment you decide not to push.

💬 I’d love to hear your thoughts—what do you think helps your dog the most?

23/07/2025

Sometimes we need to hear it in their voice.

Dear human,
you don’t have to rush.
I know you want this to be easier.
I know it’s hard to go slow.
But I feel safer when you wait for me.

Let’s take our time.
Together.

When you go at your dog’s pace, you show them they can trust you to wait.
You show them they don’t have to face their fears alone.
This is how safety begins.

20/07/2025

You didn’t cause your dog’s separation anxiety.
Not by cuddling them too much.
Not by working from home.
Not by letting them follow you around the house.
Not by being soft.

Separation anxiety isn’t your fault.
But the healing? That’s something you’re helping them do—every time you slow down, listen, and show up again.

You’re not the cause.
You’re the support.
And it’s already making a difference.

17/07/2025

They’re not “being good.”
They’re not “obeying.”
They’re not “over it.”

What you’re seeing is something deeper.

Their nervous system is starting to believe
that being alone isn’t the same as being abandoned.
That you always come back.
That it’s safe to rest.

That’s the change we’re really working toward.

You are helping them feel safe.

14/07/2025

It’s easy to feel like you’re getting it wrong.
To worry that you’re not doing enough.
That you should be tougher. Or more consistent. Or know exactly what to do.

But your dog doesn’t need perfection.
They don’t need control.
They don’t need “tough love.”

They need someone who tries to understand.
Someone who notices what they’re feeling.
Someone who keeps showing up.

That’s what matters.
That’s what makes the difference.

11/07/2025

Separation anxiety training might seem like it’s just about alone-time.

But the more you learn to support your dog through that fear,
the more you begin to understand them everywhere else too.

Over time, something changes.
You begin to understand them more deeply—not just when they’re alone, but always.

You recognise when they’re overwhelmed at the café.
You spot the signs before they start barking at the stranger.
You know when they need space, or reassurance, or time.

And in learning to support them through one fear,
you build a relationship rooted in understanding and trust.

08/07/2025

This letter is for anyone in the thick of separation anxiety training—
The ones showing up day after day, even when it feels slow.
The ones wondering if it’s working.
The ones who feel like they’re trying so hard… and still aren’t sure.

You’re building more than you realise.
And one day, you’ll look back and say: we made it through.

Your future self—who’s been there and remembers how hard it was—
is so proud of you and how far you’ve come.

05/07/2025

It’s not just the training.
It’s everything else.

Because when your dog has separation anxiety, the hardest part often isn’t the training itself.
It’s the rest of life.
It’s saying no to plans. Rearranging work. Asking for help.
It’s reshaping your day around your dog’s needs—again and again.

You’re not just doing training exercises.
You’re making sure they’re never left alone outside of training—no matter how inconvenient, no matter how exhausting.

And that takes real strength.

Not everyone can see or understand what you're doing.
But I see it. And I know how much it matters.
Because this—this consistency, this commitment, this love—is what helps your dog feel truly safe again.

You’re not spoiling them. You’re showing up for them.
You’re doing the hard thing—so one day, they can feel okay on their own.

02/07/2025

Many people are surprised when I say separation anxiety training works best online.

But there’s a reason I only offer these sessions remotely.

In fact, remote training isn’t just possible—it’s essential.

Because in separation anxiety training, we’re not working on behaviour in front of the trainer—we’re working on how the dog feels when left alone.

When I’m not there in person, your dog isn’t reacting to me.
They’re reacting to the situation as it truly is: you leaving, and then returning—step by step.

Whether a dog is wary of strangers or gets excited around visitors, my presence would change their emotional state.
And that means we wouldn’t be seeing their real, unfiltered response to being alone.

Remote training allows me to assess your dog in their natural environment—without added pressure or disruption.

It’s just you, your dog, and a carefully structured plan that moves at their pace.
A process that’s clear, calm, and grounded in trust.

That’s where real progress begins.
And that’s why online training is the gold standard for separation anxiety.
