Is your dog afraid of you, even though you've never hurt them? I know from personal experience that having a dog you love cower or avoid you is really difficult.

Most of my students have had dogs their entire lives, and are still surprised to realize all the ways that they're inadvertently frightening their fearful dogs. That's what I cover in this video: Some of the most common "normal" things we humans do that scare sensitive dogs, and keep them afraid of us.
Do you think you're doing any of the things I describe in the video? Leave me a comment or question below the video on YouTube and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.
