  • Daisy, this podcast on handling nerves is excellent. I’ve listened to it a few times already and get something new each time. I’m running a young dog who is a real work in progress. He gets amped up at trials and so do I. Last time I stepped up to the gate with him, I suddenly felt the nerves! But I chuckled to myself and said “Well there you are, my nerves! Thanks for showing up! Hop in the backpack, Let’s do this!” I really love this strategy. Thanks!
