Join Sailor Jerri and Mattison, certified trainers and canine behavior experts with a combined 3 decades of experience in behavioral dog training.   In this episode, Brittany joins us to unpack what it really means to “get to know your dog as an individual.” Her two littermates, Dax and King, couldn’t be more different: one sensitive and reactive, the other fairly confident. Together, we explore how stories, expectations, and even our own nervous systems shape the way we see our dogs. From “terminal uniqueness” to resilience and capacity, this conversation dives deep into the messy, nuanced process of truly meeting your dog where they are without overcomplicating what they need. A grounded, eye-opening discussion for anyone learning to see beyond the behavior and understand the dog in front of them. Come back next month to hear from Desi, the trainer who worked for four weeks with Brittany to help Dax and King.   To apply for a live unpacking, see photos of the dogs featured in this episode, or read full episode transcripts, visit us at www.unpacked.stream and connect with us on Instagram @unpacked.stream.   unPACKed was created by Jerri Scherff and Mattison Skoog-Simpson, and edited and produced by Mattison Skoog-Simpson.  Visual design by Mattison Skoog-Simpson and theme music by Oleksandr Stepanov.

    Ep 23: Trigger Stacking in the City (Ruth & Corn)

    Welcome to unPACKed, an open-minded podcast taking a clinical, *not political*, approach to help pet parents around the world. Join Sailor Jerri and Mattison, certified trainers and canine behavior experts with a combined 3 decades of experience in behavioral dog training.   In this episode, Ruth shares her journey with Corn, a reactive rescue navigating life in downtown Toronto. While they've made great progress, unpredictable triggers like off-leash dogs and strangers continue to challenge them. We explore how environmental stress, trigger stacking, and nervous system regulation impact behavior—and how shifting from obedience to emotional support can open new doors. Ruth is ready to reframe her approach, reduce tool reliance, and build patterns that boost Corn’s confidence. A thoughtful, practical conversation for anyone supporting a reactive dog in a busy world. Come back next month for a brand new episode, and later this year we'll check back in with Ruth to get an update on her training journey.   To apply for a live unpacking, see photos of the dogs featured in this episode, or read full episode transcripts, visit us at www.unpacked.stream and connect with us on Instagram @unpacked.stream.   unPACKed was created by Jerri Scherff and Mattison Skoog-Simpson, and edited and produced by Mattison Skoog-Simpson.  Visual design by Mattison Skoog-Simpson and theme music by Oleksandr Stepanov.
