## Resource

This is the second in our series on the reactive dog. In this episode, we discuss the various stages of life: puppy, adolescence, and adulthood. We discuss why reactivity might appear and what you can do to help bring your dog back to a calmer state of mind - or better yet, help them not over-react in the first place. As always, the heroes of our podcast are the dogs, and we’ll share stories of our real-life canine caped crusaders. Helping them manage the root causes of the reaction is the basis for a trusting relationship where their super-dog qualities come shining through.
