Worried it's "Woo Woo"?

I get it. Nature therapy, rewilding... none of this conforms to what you've been told about dog training and behavior modification. However, while conventional obedience training can teach basic commands, research shows that a dog’s behavior is most strongly influenced by their emotional wellbeing, biological needs, and environment.

 

Holistic programs like Souly Dog focus on these foundations, helping dogs feel safe, relaxed, and connected, which naturally supports "good" behavior and reduces "problems" like anxiety, reactivity, and stress-induced habits.

​

Building trust and addressing underlying needs leads to calmer, more balanced behavior, and deepens the bond between dogs and their guardians. This isn’t “woo woo”. It's an evidence-based approach that works alongside or even beyond obedience training for a happier, more well-adjusted dog.
