On today's episode, Natasja is joined by Clair Hickson from Talk to the Paw. Clair is a Dog Trainer and Behaviourist from Bristol and specialises in helping dog owners improve the lives of their Shy, Nervous and Anxious dogs. Clair and Natasja discuss how to identify whether your dog is shy, nervous or anxious and how to help them overcome their issues as well as having a look at the impact the current lockdown might be having on your dog.

So pull up your favourite chair, pour yourself a cup of your favourite hot drink and relax while we help you understand what you can do to turn you pessimistic dog into a confident optimistic canine who is better equipt to deal with life.
