Part 5 – Everyday tips for dog owners – Learning to calm down – calm starts in the brain
Dogs can only relax when their nervous system is calm.
As long as the amygdala (warning center in the brain) is active, the body remains in standby mode – no matter how quiet the environment is.
In this video, Franziska Rettenhaber of Hundumhappy shows you how to help your dog switch from stress mode to real relaxation and make rest possible in the first place.
Not by suppressing it.
Not by wearing your dog out.
But by regulating.
Relaxation is a neurological skill – and you can train it.
