The Pet Parenting Reset

Feng shui isn't just about furniture placement — it's about energy, and your pet is picking up on it whether you realize it or not. Amanda Gibby Peters, founder of Simple Shui, joins The Pet Parenting Reset to break down what feng shui actually means in practical, non-complicated terms, and why it applies just as much to your dog or cat's wellbeing as your own. We get into how animals are uniquely sensitive to the energy of a space — clutter, chaotic high-traffic zones, stagnant corners — often reacting to it before we consciously notice anything's off. Amanda walks through simple, zero-cost shifts pet parents can make: where a pet's bed sits in a room, how to read whether a space feels calm or chaotic, and why this might be the missing piece for pets who seem anxious or unsettled even when everything else — diet, supplements, routine — is dialed in. This episode is a reminder that ReWilding isn't always about adding something new. Sometimes it's about clearing what's in the way of the energy that's already there. And the best part: this one's completely free. 🐶 🐱 Nutrition & Holistic Health Consults: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/collections/consultations⁠ 🐶 Get to the root cause with the Wild Wellness Bioenergetics at-home testing kit: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/products/bioenergetic-sensitivity-testing-for-dogs-full-scan-wild-wellness-powered-by-pet-medella⁠ 💛 Follow The Pet Parenting Reset on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/thepetparentingreset/⁠ 🤍 Follow Wild Wellness Pet on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/wildwellnesspet/ 📩 Get email notifications for new episodes: ⁠https://jessicalfisher.kartra.com/page/tpprnotify⁠

There's a federal deadline coming that could change access to full-spectrum hemp products for pets — and most pet parents have no idea it's happening. I brought Sean Zyer, founder of Earth Buddy, back on the show to break down what's actually going on, because even people paying attention are confused by how fast this has moved. We get into how we got here — the rise of intoxicating, synthetic hemp products sold with zero oversight, and how that created the political pressure now sweeping up naturally-derived, full-spectrum products in the same net. Sean explains the actual legal threshold at stake (0.4 milligrams of THC per container), why the timeline keeps shifting, and why full-spectrum products — the ones built around the entourage effect, where the whole plant works synergistically rather than as an isolated compound — are getting caught in a ban meant for something else entirely. This is a ReWilding conversation at its core: nature built this plant as a whole system, and pulling it apart into isolates was never the goal for the pet parents actually seeing results. We close with what you can actually do right now — who to contact, what to say, and why your voice matters here even if this feels like one more overwhelming thing on an already overwhelming list. 🐶 🐱 Nutrition & Holistic Health Consults: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/collections/consultations⁠ 🐶 Get to the root cause with the Wild Wellness Bioenergetics at-home testing kit: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/products/bioenergetic-sensitivity-testing-for-dogs-full-scan-wild-wellness-powered-by-pet-medella⁠ 💛 Follow The Pet Parenting Reset on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/thepetparentingreset/⁠ 🤍 Follow Wild Wellness Pet on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/wildwellnesspet/ 📩 Get email notifications for new episodes: ⁠https://jessicalfisher.kartra.com/page/tpprnotify⁠

Big Pet Food is having a moment — and not exactly a flattering one. In this solo episode, I break down two connected stories: Hill's, Royal Canin, and Blue Buffalo all rolling out fresh/refrigerated food lines this year, and the latest development in the ongoing lawsuit between KetoNatural Pet Foods and Hill's Pet Nutrition over the grain-free DCM scare. I walk through what's actually in these new "fresh" formats from the big brands (spoiler: better hydration, same underlying formulation issues as kibble), and why the timing isn't a coincidence — market share has been steadily shifting toward fresh and raw feeding for years. Then we get into the lawsuit itself: KetoNatural's allegations that Hill's intentionally manufactured the DCM-grain-free connection to win back market share lost to grain-free competitors, and where the case actually stands now that a federal appellate court has revived part of it. I share what I found in the original filing, what's actually moving forward legally versus what's still just alleged, and why — regardless of how the case plays out — the formulation and ingredients tell you everything you need to know right now. We close it out by tying it back to ReWilding: even the "best" commercial option is still working inside a flawed system, and there's always room to add wild, real elements to the bowl.

Cherie Calbom — "The Juice Lady," bestselling nutrition author, and co-author of the new book The Truth About Seed Oils — joins me to break down exactly what's in that bottle of "vegetable oil" and why it's not what the name implies. We trace seed oils back to their actual origin (machine lubricant, not food) and how they ended up marketed as heart-healthy after WWII shortages pushed them into the food supply. Cherie explains the two-fold problem: the industrial processing (500°F heat, hexane extraction, deodorizing, bleaching) and the omega-6 to omega-3 imbalance it creates in the body — and in our pets, where AAFCO doesn't even regulate that ratio, so most kibble runs closer to 30:1 instead of the 4:1 we should be aiming for. Note: in the video I say 40:1, the correct figure is 30:1 We get into what Cherie feeds her own dog Winston, how to read a label without a chemistry degree, the actual smoke-point science behind cooking oil choices, and a genuinely surprising study on whole eggs and Alzheimer's risk that applies just as much to your dog's brain health as your own. If you've been meaning to clean out your pantry (and your pet's food bag), this is your sign. 🐶 🐱 Nutrition & Holistic Health Consults: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/collections/consultations⁠ 🐶 Get to the root cause with the Wild Wellness Bioenergetics at-home testing kit: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/products/bioenergetic-sensitivity-testing-for-dogs-full-scan-wild-wellness-powered-by-pet-medella⁠ 💛 Follow The Pet Parenting Reset on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/thepetparentingreset/⁠ 🤍 Follow Wild Wellness Pet on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/wildwellnesspet/ 📩 Get email notifications for new episodes: ⁠https://jessicalfisher.kartra.com/page/tpprnotify⁠

Is homeopathy actually legitimate, or is it just expensive water? Dr. Katie Kangas — DVM, CVA, CVCP, and founder of Integrative Veterinary Care in San Diego — joins The Pet Parenting Reset to demystify one of the most misunderstood corners of holistic pet care. We get into what homeopathy actually is (hint: it's not the same thing as herbalism, and it's definitely not "just placebo"), how highly diluted remedies are supposed to work, and where they fit alongside — not instead of — the rest of your pet's care. Dr. Katie also walks through her own line, Dr. Katie's Remedies, and the thinking behind specific blends for things like seasonal sensitivity and everyday wellness support. If you've heard the word "homeopathic" thrown around and never quite understood it, or you've been skeptical and want a straight answer from an actual vet, this episode is your permission slip to get curious.

Sound Healing for Dogs: Fascia, Tuning Forks & Natural Mobility Your dog's stiffness, limping, or "getting old" symptoms might not be what you think. Dr. Laurie McCauley — DVM, board-certified in Canine Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation, and the vet who designed the first underwater treadmill for dogs — joins The Pet Parenting Reset to talk about fascia: the connective tissue web wrapped around every muscle, nerve, and organ in your dog's body, and the thing almost nobody is checking when your dog "just isn't moving right." We dig into what fascia actually does, how restriction shows up as pain and limited mobility, and how tools as simple as a 128Hz tuning fork can release it — no needles, no drugs, no guesswork. Dr. Laurie has spent decades pioneering natural rehabilitation for animals, and this conversation is a masterclass in reading your dog's body instead of just reacting to symptoms. If you've been told "it's just arthritis" or "it's just age" one too many times, this episode is your ReWilding wake-up call.

ReWilding your pet’s health starts with ReWilding you as a guardian. In this special solo episode of The Pet Parenting Reset, Jess pulls back the curtain on how the show is evolving as she leans fully into the Wild Wellness ReWilding model. You’ll hear why the old, conventional approach to pet “health” is failing so many animals, and how a return to nature—through species‑appropriate nutrition, environment, nervous system support, and relationship—is becoming the backbone of every episode. Jess breaks down what ReWilding really means for modern pet parents and what you can expect from the new format: More solo deep‑dives into holistic, nature‑centric pet health Real‑life case studies that show the WWP feeding and wellness model in action Intentionally curated guests—integrative vets, brand founders, and experts who share the same whole‑body, mind, spirit philosophy If you’re ready to move beyond quick fixes, confusing advice, and fear‑based pet care, this episode sets the stage for a deeper, more grounded season of The Pet Parenting Reset—rooted in ReWilding, guided by the Wild Wellness model, and designed to help you become the kind of guardian your pet’s nature has always needed. 🐶 🐱 Nutrition & Holistic Health Consults: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/collections/consultations⁠ 🐶 Get to the root cause with the Wild Wellness Bioenergetics at-home testing kit: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/products/bioenergetic-sensitivity-testing-for-dogs-full-scan-wild-wellness-powered-by-pet-medella⁠ 💛 Follow The Pet Parenting Reset on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/thepetparentingreset/⁠ 🤍 Follow Wild Wellness Pet on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/wildwellnesspet/ 📩 Get email notifications for new episodes: ⁠https://jessicalfisher.kartra.com/page/tpprnotify⁠

This episode explores what it really means to help our dogs live longer, healthier lives—starting with the basics of what they eat and the world they live in. Dr. Kevin Toman shares his perspective as a veterinarian on the power of fresh food, reducing toxins, and making everyday choices that can add quality years for our dogs. We also get into the emerging world of lifespan‑extending pharmaceuticals for pets, and Kevin explains why some vets are beginning to use them and what he’s seeing in practice. In response, I share my concerns and questions about relying on drugs to extend life, and why I believe our focus should remain on real food, clean environments, and true health rather than quick fixes. If you’ve ever wondered how far to go with “anti‑aging” approaches for your dog—or whether we really need pharmaceuticals to help them thrive—this conversation will give you a lot to think about. 🐶 🐱 Nutrition & Holistic Health Consults: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/collections/consultations⁠ 🐶 Get to the root cause with the Wild Wellness Bioenergetics at-home testing kit: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/products/bioenergetic-sensitivity-testing-for-dogs-full-scan-wild-wellness-powered-by-pet-medella⁠ 💛 Follow The Pet Parenting Reset on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/thepetparentingreset/⁠ 🤍 Follow Wild Wellness Pet on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/wildwellnesspet/ 📩 Get email notifications for new episodes: ⁠https://jessicalfisher.kartra.com/page/tpprnotify⁠

This conversation dives into an unexpected but eye‑opening question: what can a rat specialist teach us about our dogs? My guest works in rodent control using only holistic methods and essential oils, and through years of observing rats up close, he’s noticed striking parallels between how rats and dogs respond to stress, toxins, and their environments. We talk about why “pests” are often sensitive, intelligent animals, how the same chemicals and conditions that harm rodents also affect our dogs, and what it means to create a safer, less toxic home for every species who shares our space. You’ll also hear how essential oils and other natural tools can be used thoughtfully, what ethical, compassionate rodent control looks like, and why paying attention to the smallest animals can deepen the way we care for our pets. If you’re curious, open‑minded, and interested in environment‑based health, this one will give you a whole new perspective. 🐶 🐱 Nutrition & Holistic Health Consults: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/collections/consultations⁠ 🐶 Get to the root cause with the Wild Wellness Bioenergetics at-home testing kit: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/products/bioenergetic-sensitivity-testing-for-dogs-full-scan-wild-wellness-powered-by-pet-medella⁠ 💛 Follow The Pet Parenting Reset on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/thepetparentingreset/⁠ 🤍 Follow Wild Wellness Pet on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/wildwellnesspet/ 📩 Get email notifications for new episodes: ⁠https://jessicalfisher.kartra.com/page/tpprnotify⁠

This conversation dives into the powerful connection between your wellbeing and your animal’s. Jody Teiche shares how her work as a pet health coach naturally expanded into supporting humans too, and why real transformation happens when we look at both ends of the leash. You’ll hear how stress, lifestyle, mindset, and emotional health in guardians can show up as issues in their pets, plus simple ways to shift your own habits to create a calmer, healthier home. We also explore what holistic pet health coaching looks like in practice, how it overlaps with human health coaching, and how small, compassionate changes for yourself can lead to big benefits for your dog or cat. If you’ve ever needed a loving reminder that caring for you is one of the most important ways to care for your animals, this episode will feel like a reset. 🐶 🐱 Nutrition & Holistic Health Consults: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/collections/consultations⁠ 🐶 Get to the root cause with the Wild Wellness Bioenergetics at-home testing kit: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/products/bioenergetic-sensitivity-testing-for-dogs-full-scan-wild-wellness-powered-by-pet-medella⁠ 💛 Follow The Pet Parenting Reset on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/thepetparentingreset/⁠ 🤍 Follow Wild Wellness Pet on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/wildwellnesspet/ 📩 Get email notifications for new episodes: ⁠https://jessicalfisher.kartra.com/page/tpprnotify⁠

How to Help Your Pets Naturally: Homeopathy & Real Food with Jan Allegretti is a deep‑dive into what it really looks like to support animals holistically, day in and day out. In this episode, Jan shares insights from more than 35 years of helping dogs and cats using homeopathy, nutrition, and a whole‑animal perspective. We talk about why real, species‑appropriate food is such a powerful foundation for health, how homeopathic remedies can fit alongside conventional care, and what Jan looks for when choosing an approach for the individual animal in front of her. You’ll hear practical examples, gentle mindset shifts for worried pet parents, and simple, doable ways to start moving your own pets toward more natural, aligned care—without feeling like you have to do everything at once. 🐶 🐱 Nutrition & Holistic Health Consults: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/collections/consultations⁠ 🐶 Get to the root cause with the Wild Wellness Bioenergetics at-home testing kit: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/products/bioenergetic-sensitivity-testing-for-dogs-full-scan-wild-wellness-powered-by-pet-medella⁠ 💛 Follow The Pet Parenting Reset on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/thepetparentingreset/⁠ 🤍 Follow Wild Wellness Pet on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/wildwellnesspet/ 📩 Get email notifications for new episodes: ⁠https://jessicalfisher.kartra.com/page/tpprnotify⁠

Omega‑3 Testing Explained: What a High Omega‑6 to Omega‑3 Ratio Reveals About Inflammation In this episode, Jess sits down with Tavis Piatoly from OmegaQuant to unpack what your omega‑3 test results are actually telling you—and why a high omega‑6 to omega‑3 ratio can quietly fuel chronic inflammation in both humans and animals. Together, they break down how tests like the omega‑3 index work, what those percentages and ratios really mean, and how far off the average modern diet is from where we want to be. Building on Jess’s earlier “Omegas for Dummies” episode with Judah Veitel from Nordic Naturals, this conversation moves from theory into application: real client patterns, example ranges, and what tends to shift when people and pets finally get into a healthier omega‑3 zone. You’ll hear about the links between fatty acid balance and issues like joint pain, skin problems, behavior changes, cardiovascular risk, and that vague “always inflamed” feeling so many of us accept as normal. If you’ve ever looked at an omega‑3 lab report and thought, “Okay… now what?”, or you’re wondering whether your current fish oil, pet food, or diet is enough to move the needle, this episode will give you a clear, practical framework for testing, interpreting, and taking action.

Holistic or Just Hype? How Pet Parents Can Do Better with Angela Ardolino is a straight‑talk episode about navigating the wild west of “natural” and “holistic” pet products. Angela and I dig into why you can’t just trust buzzwords on the front of the bag or bottle, and why becoming a more conscious pet parent starts with slowing down and asking better questions. We walk through how to actually read labels, what red flags to look for in ingredients and marketing claims, and where even well‑meaning brands can fall short of truly holistic. You’ll come away with practical strategies for doing your own research, choosing products that align with your values, and feeling more confident saying “no” to hype—so your time, money, and energy go toward what really supports your animal. 🐶 🐱 Nutrition & Holistic Health Consults: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/collections/consultations⁠ 🐶 Get to the root cause with the Wild Wellness Bioenergetics at-home testing kit: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/products/bioenergetic-sensitivity-testing-for-dogs-full-scan-wild-wellness-powered-by-pet-medella⁠ 💛 Follow The Pet Parenting Reset on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/thepetparentingreset/⁠ 🤍 Follow Wild Wellness Pet on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/wildwellnesspet/ 📩 Get email notifications for new episodes: ⁠https://jessicalfisher.kartra.com/page/tpprnotify⁠

Is Natural Pet Care Really “Alternative”? The Original Medicine Story is a powerful idea: what we’ve been told is “alternative” was actually the original way humans and animals were cared for. Inspired by Sayer Ji’s essay “They Called It ‘Alternative.’ It Was Always the Original,” I walk through how natural medicine—plants, foods, light, movement, relationship—sat at the center of care for generations, long before modern pharma and regulatory systems rearranged the map. We talk about what shifted when only patentable, mass‑manufactured substances were allowed to count as “real” medicine, and how that same mindset shows up today in conventional pet care. I share what this lens has changed in how I think about canine nutrition, vet visits, and “alternative” modalities, and why I see holistic, nature‑aligned pet care as a return to something older and wiser—not a trend. If you’ve ever felt like you were swimming against the current by feeding fresh food, using herbs, or questioning protocols, this episode is here to remind you that you’re not fringe—you’re remembering the original.

Choosing the Right Dog for Your Life: Lessons from Regenerative Farmer Seth Thompson takes us out to New Plymouth Farm, where the land, the goats, and a working dog named Dutch all have something to teach us about how we pick our canine companions. Seth shares how regenerative farming reshaped the way he thinks about animals, responsibility, and what it really means for a dog to have a job and a purpose. We talk about how he chose Dutch, what life looks like for a dog who herds goats, and what pet parents can learn from working‑dog relationships even if they live in a city apartment. You’ll hear real stories from the farm and practical takeaways for choosing a dog that actually fits your lifestyle, energy, and values—so both you and your dog can thrive, not just cope. 🐶 🐱 Nutrition & Holistic Health Consults: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/collections/consultations⁠ 🐶 Get to the root cause with the Wild Wellness Bioenergetics at-home testing kit: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/products/bioenergetic-sensitivity-testing-for-dogs-full-scan-wild-wellness-powered-by-pet-medella⁠ 💛 Follow The Pet Parenting Reset on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/thepetparentingreset/⁠ 🤍 Follow Wild Wellness Pet on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/wildwellnesspet/ 📩 Get email notifications for new episodes: ⁠https://jessicalfisher.kartra.com/page/tpprnotify⁠

Path to Pet Wellness: Dr Jeff Feinman on Holistic Vet Care, BEAM & the Happiness Protocol brings Dr Jeff’s Pet Health Junkies conversation to The Pet Parenting Reset main feed, because this is one I want every pet parent to hear. In this episode, Dr Jeff Feinman shares the core ideas behind his new book, Path to Pet Wellness , and how they invite us to rethink everything from symptoms and “disease” to the way we relate to our animals day to day. We dig into his BEAM framework (Behavior, Energy, Appetite, Mood) for early disease detection, the Happiness Protocol, and why listening, accepting, and trusting are not just nice ideas but practical tools for helping our pets heal. You’ll hear real stories from his practice, his perspective on food, vaccines, and conventional care, and how compassion and the human–animal bond can become powerful medicine. This is a grounded, hopeful conversation for anyone who feels there has to be more to pet wellness than chasing lab values and suppressing symptoms. 🐶 🐱 Nutrition & Holistic Health Consults: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/collections/consultations⁠ 🐶 Get to the root cause with the Wild Wellness Bioenergetics at-home testing kit: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/products/bioenergetic-sensitivity-testing-for-dogs-full-scan-wild-wellness-powered-by-pet-medella⁠ 💛 Follow The Pet Parenting Reset on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/thepetparentingreset/⁠ 🤍 Follow Wild Wellness Pet on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/wildwellnesspet/ 📩 Get email notifications for new episodes: ⁠https://jessicalfisher.kartra.com/page/tpprnotify⁠

Vegetables for Dogs? Dr Conor Brady Explains the “Plant Problem” is a deep dive into one of the most hotly debated topics in dog nutrition right now: how much plant matter, if any, belongs in your dog’s bowl. In this 250th episode, I sit down with Dr Conor Brady, author of Feeding Dogs , to unpack what he calls “the plant problem”—why dogs are biologically meat‑first, how vegetables ended up taking over so many commercial diets, and where things can go wrong when the plant side of the bowl gets too big. We talk about when vegetables might actually be helpful, which ones he considers most and least useful, how preparation (raw vs cooked vs pureed) changes the picture, and what all of this means for real‑world symptoms like itchy skin, gut issues, and chronic inflammation. You’ll walk away with a more nuanced understanding of vegetables in dog food, practical guidelines for how much to feed (if at all), and concrete questions to ask yourself before you toss anything plant‑based into your dog’s bowl. 🐶 🐱 Nutrition & Holistic Health Consults: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/collections/consultations⁠ 🐶 Get to the root cause with the Wild Wellness Bioenergetics at-home testing kit: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/products/bioenergetic-sensitivity-testing-for-dogs-full-scan-wild-wellness-powered-by-pet-medella⁠ 💛 Follow The Pet Parenting Reset on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/thepetparentingreset/⁠ 🤍 Follow Wild Wellness Pet on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/wildwellnesspet/ 📩 Get email notifications for new episodes: ⁠https://jessicalfisher.kartra.com/page/tpprnotify⁠

What We Wish Dog Parents Knew About Nutrition & Health (with Emily from The Dog Who Asked for More) is a behind‑the‑mic conversation between two canine nutritionists who care deeply about doing better for our dogs. Emily, host of The Dog Who Asked for More, joins me to share how we each found our way into the pet space, why we decided to get formal nutrition certifications, and how that changed the way we look at dog food forever. We talk about the biggest misconceptions we see from well‑meaning pet parents, what we wish people understood about kibble, raw, and everything in between, and how podcasting has become one of our favorite ways to get honest, nuanced education out into the world. If you’ve ever wondered where to start with better nutrition, how to sift through all the advice online, or what it’s like to build a dog‑focused podcast, this episode will feel like sitting down with two friends who are just as obsessed with dog health as you are. 🐶 🐱 Nutrition & Holistic Health Consults: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/collections/consultations⁠ 🐶 Get to the root cause with the Wild Wellness Bioenergetics at-home testing kit: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/products/bioenergetic-sensitivity-testing-for-dogs-full-scan-wild-wellness-powered-by-pet-medella⁠ 💛 Follow The Pet Parenting Reset on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/thepetparentingreset/⁠ 🤍 Follow Wild Wellness Pet on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/wildwellnesspet/ 📩 Get email notifications for new episodes: ⁠https://jessicalfisher.kartra.com/page/tpprnotify⁠

Indie Pet vs Big Box: What Happens to Your Favorite Brands? with Toni Unleashed pulls back the curtain on how pet brands grow—and what that growth means for the independent stores that helped build them. Toni Shelaske, who’s been in indie pet for decades, joins me to talk about brands that start in small specialty shops, then expand into big box and third‑party online platforms. We dig into which companies are handling that shift with integrity, where many are dropping the ball, and how quality and support for indie retailers can change along the way. This episode is a must‑listen for both pet parents and pet industry folks who want to understand what it really means when a brand “goes everywhere,” and how to keep voting with your dollars for quality and community even as shelves—and channels—change. 🐶 🐱 Nutrition & Holistic Health Consults: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/collections/consultations⁠ 🐶 Get to the root cause with the Wild Wellness Bioenergetics at-home testing kit: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/products/bioenergetic-sensitivity-testing-for-dogs-full-scan-wild-wellness-powered-by-pet-medella⁠ 💛 Follow The Pet Parenting Reset on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/thepetparentingreset/⁠ 🤍 Follow Wild Wellness Pet on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/wildwellnesspet/ 📩 Get email notifications for new episodes: ⁠https://jessicalfisher.kartra.com/page/tpprnotify⁠

Positive Reinforcement Dog Training: Why It’s the Gold Standard with Teoti Anderson dives into what modern, humane dog training really looks like—and why it works so well in real life. In this episode, Teoti shares how positive reinforcement has evolved over the past few decades, what the science and experience in the field tell us, and why it’s considered the gold standard by leading trainers and behavior pros. We talk through her training programs, real‑world success stories, and some common mistakes well‑meaning pet parents make when trying to “go positive” without a clear plan. I also share a bit about my own dog’s anxiety, and Teoti offers insight into how positive reinforcement can support sensitive, worried dogs without flooding or force. You’ll walk away with a clearer understanding of what good training actually looks like, what to look for in a trainer, and practical ideas you can start using with your own dog.
