POP UP TALK: From Chaos to Connection—Emotional Regulation for You & Your Dog

ABOUT THE EVENT:
Your dog’s behavior isn’t happening in isolation—it’s deeply connected to what’s happening at your end of the leash.

Join us live on Zoom with professional trainer Ashley Clark of You and Your Dog Training & Services for an insightful session exploring how stress, environment, and emotional regulation influence both you and your dog. As we move into a more active spring season, discover how to shift from reactive moments to calm, confident connection—so you and your dog can navigate the world together with greater ease.

This session serves as a primer for the in-person Official Club Adventure: Connected in Motion—Building Calm, Confidence & Communication in the Real World happening on Sunday, April 26th.

• How your emotional state influences your dog’s behavior
• What “arousal” looks like—and how to recognize it early
