Nicole den Broeder & Haley Imagine falling in love with a rescue dog from Spain, who started life by the side of a road, and then spent some days in the vet clinic fighting for her life. You decide to help find her a home by spreading her picture online. You then figure, why not foster her? And finally, she just becomes yours, but not without overcoming many difficulties. Imagine living in a flat, an apartment complex, the farthest from the elevator and the staircase. Now your dog gets attacked by the neighbor dog escaping from their front door and the only way for you to take your dog outside to potty or to go on a walk is to walk past that same front multiple times every day. That’s what happened to poor Haley, and seems to be a contributing factor to her increased reactivity. Nicole tells us about her journey, the dog training rabbit hole she went down (like most of us do), about deciding to get a 3rd dog even after all she had been through with Haley, oh and about the book she wrote detailing that journey. And last but not least, we talk, about the search for that highest of high value treats. We promised you the recipe in the show notes, so here it is: ------- Haley’s favorite treats: 1/4 cup flour 4 eggs 2 cans of sardines in water (120grams or 4.25oz per can) Tablespoon peanut butter (no artificial sweetener!) (If you like you could add a little cheese as extra) Mix everything in a blender and divide over a silicone treat mat  The batter will be the consistency of pancake-batter (think European, more crepe than American pancake) and is enough to fill 2 mats. Bake for about 25minutes at 200 C / 390 F The cookies will be soft and malleable when they’re done. ------- Nicole, Zoe, Haley & Lacey on Instagram: @gsdlacey Nicole's blog: MuddyDogPaws Haley’s book, or should we say Nicole’s book: On Amazon.com (also in Kindle-version): Reactive Rescue Understanding the Misunderstood  On Amazon.co.uk: Reactive Rescue Understanding the Misunderstood On Amazon.de: Reactive Rescue Understanding the Misunderstood On Amazon.fr: Reactive Rescue Understanding the Misunderstood On Amazon.nl: Reactive Rescue Understanding the Misunderstood The FREE mindset-mini course "THINK Your Way to a Better Relationship With Your Dog" is available here:https://kajsavanoverbeek.com/think-mini-course/
