158 | Are You Coming in Too Hot? Understanding the Fearful Dog's Mind

Hey Dog Lover 🐾🐾

Ever saw a dog so cute you couldn’t help but just rush over to give them a little pet?
(Yeah, me too.)

But sometimes we need to pause and consider what our movement means to a dog.

In fact, this is one of the biggest—and most misunderstood—reasons fearful dogs struggle to feel safe, even with people who love them dearly.

In this episode, we explore what it means to ā€œcome in too hotā€ from your dog’s perspective.
We’ll talk about prey-mind vs. predator-mind, body language, and the often-overlooked subtleties of pressure and approach that can either build trust… or blow it.

You’ll learn:

  • What ā€œpredator energyā€ looks like from a dog’s point of view

  • How to soften your presence so your dog can breathe

  • Why theĀ wayĀ you connect matters more than theĀ thingĀ you do

If you’ve ever been told your dog is ā€œweirdā€ or ā€œoverreacting,ā€ this one will shift your lens completely—and help you show up in a way your dog canĀ actuallyĀ feel safe around.

I hope you enjoy this one.
Tracy xoxo
