Living with an Emotional Dog: Navigating the Journey Together

Posted on September 28, 2024September 26, 2025 by Almudena Ortiz Cue

Caring for an emotional dog—one that is constantly stressed, fearful, anxious, or aggressive—is a profoundly complex and often overwhelming experience. Many pet parents find themselves facing these challenges alone, unsure of how to help their beloved companion.

In my 18 years as a professional dog trainer, I’ve seen firsthand the emotional toll this takes on caregivers. While Emotional Dogs need to build resilience, confidence, and flexibility, their caregivers must also develop essential skills to effectively manage and support their dogs.

Without proper guidance and support, the path to improvement can feel nearly impossible. This is why I am excited to introduce C.H.A.C.O’s Emotional Dog Support & Learning Private Group, designed specifically for caregivers of Emotional Dogs.

What You Can Expect: As a member, you’ll gain access to:

  • Professional guidance to help you navigate the complexities of living with an Emotional Dog.
  • Strategies and methodologies to relieve the overwhelm and bring clarity to your dog’s care and training.
  • Monthly training plans—practical tools that can make a meaningful difference in your dog’s behavior.
  • Insights from the fields of animal learning science, neuroscience, and dog ethology.
  • Actionable advice to help your dog become more comfortable at home and beyond.

Group Details:

  • Format: Online, live private group
  • Meetings: Twice a month, covering both caregiver support and dog training/behavior modification
  • Cost: $20/month (with the option to cancel anytime)
  • Bonus: One-month free trial
  • Start Date: Wednesday, October 9th, from 10:00 am to 11:15 am MST

I hope you’ll join us on this journey to transform not only your dog’s life but yours as well. Together, we can create a better future for your Emotional Dog.
