Episode Synopsis

In this episode, I’m joined by Tara, founder of Zen Dog Grooming and my go-to expert when it comes to cooperative care. We talk about how learning cooperative care completely transformed the way I train—not just for grooming or vet visits, but for everyday life, service dog prep, and even things like stairs and public access work.We share personal stories (like how my dog Dodger went from terrified of stairs to jumping into the lake!), explore how filming your training sessions can level up your skills fast, and discuss why understanding your own dog’s body language is the real foundation of success in any training plan.Plus, we introduce our upcoming group coaching program: Hassle-Free Handling—a live coaching program, launching this September to help guardians and trainers build real-life handling skills using science-based, force-free methods. Whether you have a service dog in training, a therapy dog, or just want to help your pet feel more comfortable with grooming, vet care, and public life… this one’s for you.🎧 Ready to build trust, confidence, and resilience in your dog?Join the waitlist for Hassle-Free Handling here: https://collabdogtraining.com/hassle-free-handlingFollow Tara on Instagram: http://instagram.com/zendog.fearlessgrooming📲 Connect with me on social:Instagram: @liveapawsomelifeTikTok: @lisagallegosonlineFacebook: @lisagallegosonlinePinterest: @lisagallegosonlineYouTube: Collab Dog Training
