Welcome to mindfulness & dogs, the podcast for dog guardians who are walking the path of reactivity with heart, courage, and compassion. I’m Biggi, coach, dog trainer and longtime student of mindfulness.

When your dog lunges or barks, your own breath often vanishes and stress takes over. In this episode, you’ll learn a powerful breathing technique you can use in the moment to stay steady and supportive, even when reactivity shows up. A few breaths at a time can change everything for both you and your dog.

Because calmer walks don’t start with a quick fix. They start with you. And your calm is your dogs safe place.

Life with a reactive dog can feel overwhelming. But what if the first step toward calmer walks has nothing to do with your dog?

In this episode I share some of my own story of living with a reactive dog and how I discovered that regulating my own nervous system was the missing piece. You’ll learn why calm truly starts with you and how this shift can transform your life.
