Arousal vs Energy and Reactivity Triggers in Dogs
In this OhMyDog Pro peer-teaching call, Manya presented a deep dive into the difference between a dog's energy and its arousal, covering physical versus emotional arousal, Panksepp's engaging and protective emotional systems, the emotional sink analogy, and a real case study of a cocker spaniel with compulsive fly-snapping caused by chronic over-arousal. Yashika followed with a session on reactivity, drawing on her own experience with her Shih Tzu Tin Tin to explain common triggers like sound, people, movement and unmet basic needs, and how the six rituals, especially structured walks and leash work, help resolve it. Sunny Luthra moderated, answered member questions, and gave feedback encouraging both presenters to use mind maps and break dense topics into shorter, more structured sessions.</br>

Decoding tail wags and dog body language
Kashish led a Pro member presentation on reading dog tail positions and body language across moods like happy, submissive, fearful, territorial, anxious and confident dogs. Members asked detailed follow-up questions involving real cases (community dog encounters, a Border Collie, a Doberman, a Labrador's arousal around other dogs, and tail docking), with Sunny Luthra adding context on arousal, instincts, breed influence, and neutering. The session emphasized not jumping to conclusions, observing the whole dog in context, and building deep knowledge before teaching others.</summary
