66 | Understand Your Dog’s Love Language: When Affection Isn’t Always Welcome

Beyond Obedience | Dog Training, Dog Behaviour Training, Scared Dogs, Reactive Dogs

Hey fellow dog lover! 🐾

Does your dog bite or nip every time you try to show them affection? It might be time to rethink how you’re connecting with your dog. In this Q&A episode, I tackle the tough question: "My dog bites me every time I pet him—how do I prevent that?"

The answer might surprise you: stop petting the dog. 😧

While this isn’t the answer most dog lovers want to hear, respecting your dog’s love language is essential rather than teaching them to tolerate ours.

Not all dogs enjoy physical affection, and understanding what makes your dog feel safe and loved is key to building a stronger bond.

If you’ve ever felt confused about how to show affection to a dog that doesn’t like being squished, this episode is for you.
