Show Notes
What can Street Dogs teach us about making our own dogs happier? Probably more than you’d expect.
Most people feel sorry for street dogs. In many ways that instinct is right. They face injury, disease, hunger and danger that our pet dogs are protected from.
But there are also parts of street dog life that are surprisingly better than the life pet dogs live.
In this episode, Katie shares what she observed while spending time around a large population of free-living dogs, and the lessons they reveal about our own dogs.
You’ll discover:
- Why street dogs experience far less frustration than most pet dogs
- The fascinating way they structure their day through choice and autonomy
- The powerful bond street dogs still seek with humans, even without an owner
- What these dogs reveal about the balance our own dogs actually need to thrive
If you want a calmer, happier dog, the answer isn’t just better training techniques. Street dogs reveal the needs we cannot afford to ignore.
