The K-9 Bubble Training ~ Series
Transforming Canine Behavior Through Spatial Awareness

This Experiential audiobook will serve as a comprehensive guide to space management in dog training, using principles rooted in canine communication, social boundaries, and instinct-driven learning. Drawing inspiration from Patricia McConnell’s The Other End of the Leash, this book will help pup parents harness the power of movement, distance, and spatial pressure to improve obedience, trust, and behavior modification.
________________________________________
📖 Book Overview
Imagine this: Your dog stands frozen, ears back, body tense as a stranger approaches too quickly. You shift your stance, creating a small space buffer, and instantly, your dog relaxes. Without a word, you’ve just communicated safety, control, and reassurance.

This isn’t magic.
The Space Factor is the ultimate way to transform obedience and behavioral training through an often-overlooked dimension: how dogs perceive and respond to space.
For too long, dog training has focused primarily on commands—words humans expect dogs to understand. But dogs communicate mainly through movement, proximity, and body language. By learning to speak their spatial language, we unlock a new level of understanding, trust, and effective training.

What This Book Will Teach You: 🐾 How to use spatial awareness to reduce reactivity, aggression, and fear.

🐾 Why understanding your dog’s social zones is key to better communication
🐾 The role of pressure and release in teaching self-control and responsiveness
🐾 How to shape behaviors using subtle movement adjustments rather than force
🐾 How to train in a way that respects your dog’s instincts and builds trust

Are you ready to step into your dog’s world, refine your communication, and create a more harmonious relationship?

Dog Separation Anxiety

🐾 Introduction

The Door Is Not the Danger

What Dogs Teach Us About Presence, Longing, and the Sacred Art of Leaving Without Loss
Your dog panics the moment you leave.
They cry, scratch, refuse food.
They pace hallways like ghost hunters searching for a vanished heart.

And you—no matter how many tools you’ve tried—feel the guilt coil tighter each time the door clicks shut.
This is not a behavior problem.
This is a heartbreak story.

In The Door Is Not the Danger, you’ll sit at the edge of thresholds with dogs who tremble not because you’re gone—
but because the world has yet to show them that love returns.
Blending trauma-informed neuroscience with ritual, symbolism, and the sacred rhythm of departure and return, this book isn’t about tricks.

It’s about trust.
Not about forcing calm—but teaching the nervous system that goodbye doesn’t mean gone forever.

You’ll learn to:
● Rewrite the story your dog tells themselves when you leave
● Use breath and presence to tether safety across distance
● Decode the invisible “departure cues” that start the spiral
● Transform crate time into a sanctuary, not a sentence
● Practice absence not as abandonment—but as a devotion ritual
● And walk back through the door in a way that heals everything

This is not obedience training.
This is soul restoration.
Because sometimes the most important thing you’ll ever teach your dog is that they’re still safe—even when they can’t see you.

And that the thread between you
doesn’t break when stretched—
it shines.

The Dog Knows the Way
Episode 1: Aloha’s Medical Emergency ~ My Untraining Begins

A Soulful Guide to Raising a True Companion—Through Healing, Listening, and Becoming Together

🎙️ Five minutes of science, soul & stories from my heart to yours—shared for the ones who feel it all and need a way to walk through it. For those who aren’t just training a dog, but becoming a companion worthy of being followed.

________________________________________
It began with a sound I pray never to hear again.
Not a bark. Not a whine.
Just silence—split by the wet, choking drag of something thick and terrible hitting the floor.
Dark. Phlegmy. Blood, heavy with fear.
I found her there, crouched low just beyond my bedroom door, trembling in the hush before dawn.
And of all nights—this was the one I’d chosen to let them sleep apart, a quiet ritual I used now and then, meant to nurture their confidence away from my closeness.
But that night, the space between us felt like a continent.

Her eyes—those soulful, ancient eyes—were rimmed with confusion.
And her mouth… oh, her mouth.
Her saliva was dark and thick, not fluid but syrupy, pooling and clotting as it slid forward, interrupting her airways.
Her huge tongue lolled unnaturally outside her mouth, not in relaxation but in desperation—leaving barely enough room to breathe.
From her mouth, blood poured, not like a wound but like a faucet unlatched by some unseen force.
And there it was:
The horror.
Raw. Red. Unrelenting.
It wasn’t just what I saw.
It was what I couldn’t do.
I couldn’t stop it.
I couldn’t reach the source.
I could only kneel into the moment and try to hold back my own trembling long enough to speak her name.
“Aloha… I’m here. I’m here.”
And in that breathless hush between panic and movement,
I knew something was about to be unlearned.
________________________________________

The Moment Everything Slows
We rushed from one emergency vet to the next.
The first offered heartfelt concern and injected pain meds.
The second offered—a steely impersonalization of care, an unsuccessful procedure — and sent us home with three bottles of meds and cold instructions:

“TAKE WITH FOOD.”
But how?
When my beloved companion couldn’t even close her mouth,
her swollen tongue lolling out—leaving barely enough space to breathe,
let alone chew.
The third was a surgical specialist who never called.
I waited.
Hour after hour.
Day after day.
No answers. Just static.
“Obstructed gland… possible hereditary rupture… surgical intervention likely…”
But inside that whirlwind—fluorescent lights, clinical phrases, clipped syllables—
only one thing pulsed loud and clear through the fog:

She needs me to be still.
She needs me to stay.
I need to STOP & pull myself together for her sake!
Aloha was slipping.
Not just in body—in spirit.
She was tired.
And afraid.
And I had moved too fast for too long to notice the signs.
________________________________________
What Jung Might Say
Jung said the Self will send signals when the ego drifts too far from truth.
First a whisper. Then a pull.
If we still don’t listen, the body gets involved.
“Crisis is the breaking of the shell that encloses understanding.”
(Jung, Modern Man in Search of a Soul)
That morning, Aloha’s body became the crisis.
But the truth that broke open was mine.
________________________________________
What She Had Been Trying to Say
In the weeks before this, she had offered hints.
She slowed.
She avoided her food bowl.
She looked at me—really looked—as if asking whether I’d notice the subtle shift in her breath, her posture, her pulse.
I didn’t.
Because I was moving too quickly—ticking off checklists, showing up for others, doing the good work of “being strong.”
But Aloha didn’t need my strength.
She needed my stillness.
And when I wouldn’t offer it,
her body collapsed into the only message I would finally hear:
Stop. Come home. Stay.
________________________________________
What the Science Says
This isn’t just myth. It’s medicine.
Studies in veterinary behavioral science confirm that emotional resonance between dog and guardian affects health outcomes—immune regulation, respiratory function, even wound healing.
(See: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8330780/)
Dogs whose humans are chronically stressed often experience somatic symptoms—especially if the bond is strong.
Aloha’s system, already predisposed to weakness, had likely been carrying my pace… until it couldn’t.

🎙️ Wag Wisdom Daily Brief —

(Five minutes of science, soul & strategies from my heart to yours—motivation you can’t resist, for pup parents and pet pros alike)
In Wag Wisdom, dog trainer and behavior expert Lorrie J. Harris invites you into a new kind of dog training—one that listens before it leads, breathes before it speaks, and notices the space between behaviors as sacred.

Ever feel like you're repeating yourself a hundred times—and your dog still acts like they’ve never heard it before?
You're not imagining it. But the issue isn’t disobedience.
It’s perceptual overload. Today’s brief is about what happens when your dog’s brain—and yours—gets too full to listen.
Let’s dig in.
________________________________________

🧠 Science & Brain
Cognitive Overload Shrinks the Learning Window
Summary:
A study from the University of California, San Francisco found that when too much information hits the prefrontal cortex at once, learning pathways shut down to protect working memory. Overstimulated brains default to automatic, often unhelpful, behaviors.
🔗 https://www.ucsf.edu/news/2022/06/421371/cognitive-overload-leads-errors-under-pressure
What it means:
When your dog seems to “check out” mid-training, they’re not stubborn—they’re maxed out. Dogs, like us, need space between inputs. The magic isn’t in more commands—it’s in the pause between them.
Training Tip:
After 3–4 cues, stop. Let silence stretch. When your dog re-engages on their own, you’ve just built attention naturally.
________________________________________

🐾 Training & Behavior
The Power of Predictable Patterns
Summary:
Research from the University of Vienna shows that dogs trained using structured, rhythmic routines (vs. random reinforcement) demonstrated faster learning, better retention, and lower stress markers.
🔗 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6024372/
What it means:
Your dog doesn’t just need motivation—they crave rhythm. When the cues and consequences follow a clear flow, their nervous system relaxes. Predictability is the scaffolding for confidence.
Training Tip:
Try setting your training reps to a beat: 5 steps—cue—pause—praise. The body loves cadence. So does the canine brain.
________________________________________

🌞 Mindset & Well‑Being
Micro-Restorations Build Long-Term Resilience
Summary:
According to research from the University of Sussex, even 40 seconds of visual exposure to nature improves attention, emotional regulation, and reduces mental fatigue. These “micro-restorations” compound over time for both humans and animals.
🔗 https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0169204619300181
What it means:
A deep breath at the window. A sunbeam. A soft touch on your dog’s fur. These are not luxuries—they’re restoratives. You don’t need a retreat to reset. You need a moment.
Training Tip:
Take a nature pause with your dog—even if it’s just 60 seconds in the yard. No cues. No pressure. Just presence.
________________________________________

🌀 Psychology & Self‑Discovery
The Mirror and the Mask: When Dogs Reflect Our Hidden Beliefs
Summary:
Carl Jung described the “persona” as the mask we wear to meet the world—and the “shadow” as what we hide. Often, what triggers us in others (or our dogs) lives in this unconscious mirror.
🔗 https://www.britannica.com/topic/persona-psychology
How It Applies to Dog Training:
Does your dog’s stubbornness enrage you? Could it be reflecting your fear of being ignored? Or your discomfort with rest? When we feel disproportionate frustration, it’s rarely about the dog—it’s about the shadow being seen.
Training Tip:
Next time you feel triggered by your dog’s behavior, pause. Ask: “What part of me is being seen right now?” Insight softens resistance.
________________________________________

🌟 Energy & Connection
Touch Sends a Neurochemical Signal of Safety
Summary:
Research from the Touch Research Institute at the University of Miami confirms that gentle, intentional touch releases oxytocin, reduces cortisol, and enhances attunement in both giver and receiver—including across species.
🔗 https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6073499/
What it means:
Before your dog can trust your command, they must trust your energy. A calm hand on their chest, a slow sweep down the spine, or a fingertip at the base of the ear can change the entire conversation—without a single word.
Training Tip:
Use calming touch before difficult transitions (like leashing up or grooming). Anchor the energy first. The behavior follows.

How to Build Behavior Through Play, Fitness & Emotional Flow

❗️ PROBLEM THEME
“How do I train my dog to listen… without losing the joy that made us love this in the first place?”
________________________________________

👋 OPENING PARAGRAPH
Hi friends, Lorrie J. Harris here—founder of Coaching Canine Companions.
There’s a moment—right before the cue, before the treat bag rustles—when your dog looks up. Not just to perform. But to connect.

That moment is sacred.

And too often, in the rush to “get it right,” we rush past it. But what if training wasn’t a checklist? What if it was a dance? A way to play your way back to each other? A ritual, born from motion, breath, and spark?

Let’s dig in.

💔 They’re Not Being Difficult—They’re Mourning You.
Today’s Wag Wisdom Daily Brief dives into the quiet heartbreak of separation anxiety: the door scratched raw, the couch torn open, the hollow look in your dog’s eyes when you return—not angry, but distant.

In this soul-soaked briefing, you'll discover how absence triggers ancient fear... and how you can become your dog’s lighthouse in the fog.

With insights from neuroscience, energy coherence, and emotional imprinting, we’ll guide you through:
• Using your scent as medicine
• Rewiring panic with 30-second success stories
• Departure rituals that speak safety in every cell
• Healing grief that doesn’t belong only to you
• And building inner independence for dogs always by your side

This isn’t about fixing “bad behavior.” It’s about restoring connection across the wire of time, space, and heartbeat.

🌀 When you leave, let them rise.

💞 When you return, let them remember: love always comes back.

“Why does my dog fall apart when I leave?” It’s not misbehavior—it’s a wound. Today’s Wag Wisdom unpacks separation anxiety with scent science, 30-sec training wins, and rituals that soothe the soul. Let your dog remember: they’re safe—even when you’re gone. 👉 https://coachingca...

Introduction: What If You’ve Been Reading the Story Backwards?

This is a gentle and vivid reframing: the dog's behavior isn’t a test of obedience—it’s a transcript of emotion. We open with a story (Sarah and Jasper) where the leash becomes a lifeline, not a lead. We introduce the concept of emotional mirroring, co-regulation, and the idea that beneath every "bad behavior" lies a body trying to feel safe.

“This isn’t a how-to manual.

It’s a how-to-hear.”

Chapter 11: You Are the Field

The nervous system is not just internal—it’s relational. Your breath, tone, and regulation become the terrain your dog navigates. Introduce co-regulation, emotional contagion, and field resonance.



Chapter 12: The Real Work Is Invisible

How trust is built in silence, stillness, and seemingly “non-training” moments. Emphasize emotional rituals, rhythm cues, and nervous system priming.



Chapter 13: The Whisper Lives On

Final reflections from the pack. This is not the end of a training protocol—it’s the beginning of a lifelong conversation. Invite the reader to continue decoding their dog’s emotional language in everyday life.

A 4-Part Experiential Audiobook Bundle for Pup Parents Who Want to Train from the Heart—Not Just the Handbook
________________________________________

What If Your Dog’s Leash Worked More Like a Heart Monitor… Than a Rope?

One measures pressure.
The other measures presence.

Most dog owners have been taught to use the leash for control—tighten up, hold steady, and keep the dog close.

But what if the real magic isn’t in holding your dog back…
It’s in learning to feel what they’re already trying to say?

This bundle isn’t just about behavior.
It’s about the biofield between you—the unspoken tension that lives in your wrist, your breath, your dog’s pupils.
And it changes everything.
________________________________________
Before the Pull, There’s a Whisper
You’ve seen it.

The quick glance.

The body stiffens.

The space between you grows tight before the leash ever does.
That moment doesn’t need a correction.

It needs a response.
In these four groundbreaking audiobooks, you’ll discover how to decode the signals before the struggle and teach your dog through trust, not tension.

Through field-tested training, real-life stories, and somatic guidance, you'll learn how to:
✅ Build daily trust rituals that change behavior from the inside out

✅ Use short, joyful training bursts with strategic rest (H.I.I.T. for dogs!)

✅ Replace barking, pulling, and freezing with emotional attunement

✅ Lead through body cues and breath—not commands
________________________________________

A New Kind of Training Journey Begins Here
Meet your guides through the audiobook series:
🐾 Tethered Horizons — Understand reactivity as a biological broadcast, not a behavioral breakdown.

🐾 The Art of Dog Training Through H.I.I.T. — Accelerate learning with focused intervals of action and recovery that reflect how dogs learn.

It’s inevitable when connection comes first.
________________________________________
Picture This…
You’re walking your dog in the same place you used to avoid.
Where the barking, spinning, or freezing once took over.
But this time, something is different.
You breathe.
They glance up.
No command needed.
You feel it—the rhythm. The ease. The invisible leash pulling you closer together, not apart.
This moment wasn’t built through obedience drills.
It was built through listening.

Teaser: Unleashing the Magic of Dog Zoomies and Off-Leash Freedom
https://youtu.be/rTI2Fj1cdNQ
Have you ever watched your dog explode into a whirlwind of joyful chaos—spinning, sprinting, and zigzagging like they’ve just discovered their purpose in life? Those wild, uninhibited bursts of energy, known as zoomies, are more than a quirky behavior. They’re a glimpse into your dog’s untamed spirit, a celebration of instinct and joy.

But what if you could turn those moments of chaos into something even more profound? What if those zoomies symbolized trust, freedom, and connection between you and your dog?

● Harness the joy of zoomies to deepen your bond with your dog.

● Build trust and confidence with off-leash recall training.

The Paradox You’re Living

You step into the park with your hopeful heart and pocketful treats. Your pup seems ready. And for 30 seconds, everything is perfect—until it’s not. Play turns chaotic. Barking escalates. Your dog doesn’t hear you. Or worse… doesn’t care.

You’ve taught the commands. You’ve followed the advice. So why does your dog STILL act like a misfit the moment joy enters the room?

Here’s the Truth They Don’t Tell You:
Training doesn’t disappear when your dog starts playing.

It was never really there in the first place.

Why?

Because you trained around joy, not within it.

Welcome to the Zeno Effect of Dog Training: the more you try to control your dog during play… the worse it gets.
________________________________________
Get Ready to Flip the Script:

Introducing Misfit to Marvel:
Turning Playtime into the Ultimate Training Tool—a 6-week online adventure that blends science, story, and structured joy to help you transform your dog’s chaos into confident connection.

Through the neuroscience of arousal, the art of communication, and a sprinkle of what we call the P.I.R. Method (Play, Interrupt, Redirect), you’ll turn misbehavior into music, roughhousing into regulation, and playtime into power.

This is not your average dog training course.
This is the Jedi Mind Trick of Recall. The Matrix Glitch of Misbehavior. The Observer Effect of Dog Play.

Where science meets story. Where your dog doesn’t just listen… they want to.
________________________________________
You’ll Learn to:
● Read your dog’s play style like a seasoned behavioral Sherlock
● Interrupt overstimulation before it explodes
● Embed training into the fabric of play (no more separating “training time” and “fun time”)
● Use play as your secret social superpower
● Create structured routines that flow effortlessly into real-world adventures
________________________________________

But First, Let’s Talk About That Shift:

Most dog owners think play is the reward for good behavior.

What if it’s actually the path?

In Week 1, you’ll meet the Play Personalities: the Wrestler, the Chaser, the Mouthy Player, the Stalker & Pouncer, and the Soloist. It’s like learning your dog’s Hogwarts House—but with more zoomies and fewer owls.

By Week 3, you’ll decode subtle growls, tension shifts, and social language better than most dog park regulars ever will.

And by Week 6? You’ll walk into any situation—off-leash parks, busy trails, daycare chaos—with the confidence of someone who knows their dog is emotionally fluent, socially savvy, and beautifully bonded to you.
________________________________________
This Isn’t About Control. It’s About Flow.

Training with treats or punishment creates obedience.

Training with play creates trust, timing, and transformation.

Remember Newton’s First Law of Training? A dog in motion stays in motion… unless interrupted with intention.

That’s exactly what you’ll learn to do.

Coaching Canine Companions

Coaching Canine Companions is a one-of-a-kind comprehensive dog training program designed to meet the needs of each unique guardian/dog team.

As a former health coach and educator, I often yearned to live a life of serving people AND dogs at the same time. I had always held special and unique relationships with my canine friends. In fact, I thought everyone did – until several people asked, "How did you train your dog to be so connected with you?" The answer wasn't something that I could just give in a few sentences, or even a few hours. However, I deeply wanted them to be as blessed as I was with these special canine friends. Hence, my idea to develop a company with various types of dog training for those who would like to build special bonds with their dogs – even if they first need to address behavioral challenges.
