Mary Debono challenges the common instinct to correct a dog’s posture or movement problems. Drawing from her extensive experience with Debono Moves and the Feldenkrais MethodⓇ, Mary explains why forcing a dog into a different posture may backfire by triggering the nervous system's protective responses.
Instead, she advocates for a gentle, supportive approach that honors the body’s natural tendencies and gradually introduces new options. By working with your dog’s nervous system rather than against it, you can help your dog move more freely and comfortably, leading to lasting improvements in their mobility and well-being.
This episode can change how you approach your dog’s health and movement challenges.
