C.A.R.E Focused Education for Dogs & Their People
Inspiring Curiosity, Agency, Reflection, & Empathy
  Resilience is the ability to adapt successfully or recover quickly from stressful or exciting situations, events, or conditions.
Just like us, dogs face various stressors and changes, from loud noises and unfamiliar environments to health issues and training difficulties. A resilient dog can handle and navigate these obstacles with confidence and ease, maintaining their well-being and happiness along the way. Why does resilience matter in our family dogs? Because it directly impacts their overall quality of life and well-being. A resilient dog is better equipped to handle the ups and downs of life, the hard stuff life throws at them, even when we do our very best to keep them in a protective bubble. High resilience results in less stress, improved behavior, and a more trust with their people and the world around them. Understanding and building your dog's resilience can also help you moderate their environment, behavior plans, and care to better support their emotional and behavioral needs.
