Why does your dog ignore you when you call? Is it stubbornness... or is something else going on?
In this episode of Resident Wild, Kim and Neri answer a listener question about one of the most common frustrations for dog owners—a dog that simply won't come back when called.
Rather than focusing on obedience, they explore what recall can tell us about a dog's emotional state, relationship, and motivation. Could your dog be making a choice based on how they're feeling in that moment? And what role does connection play in creating a reliable recall?
In Debunk a Myth, they tackle another widely misunderstood behaviour: eye contact. Is direct eye contact a sign of trust, a challenge, or are we interpreting it through a human lens? By looking at dogs through the perspective of the wolf and understanding natural social behaviour, they reveal why eye contact is far more nuanced than we've been led to believe.
Whether your dog has selective hearing or seems completely distracted by the world around them, this episode offers a fresh perspective on one of the most common challenges dog owners face.
