I focus on sniffing, safety, and letting dogs explore nature at their own pace to relieve stress and build confidence. ## Photos and videos - ![After a stressful event, the best thing we can do is avoid adding more stressors.

My decompression walks are different. I use 15ft+ long lines to let your dog lead the way, stop for as many sniffs as they want, and engage with the environment. It is not about covering distance; it is about giving them the agency to process their world, which is the most effective way to lower stress levels for anxious or high-energy dogs. Most people think a 'good walk' means walking in a straight line at a brisk pace. For a dog, that is often just a physical task. My approach to decompression walks is about mental enrichment. When I take a dog out, we focus on 'sniffari' time. Sniffing allows a dog to gather information, process their emotions, and release dopamine, which naturally calms them down. I handle each dog with safety as the priority. We strictly use well-fitted harnesses instead of collars to prevent injury. If your dog is reactive, I plan routes to keep us in quiet areas, ensuring they don't hit their trigger threshold. Whether it is an senior dog who needs a slow stroll or a high-energy pup that needs to explore a new surface, I adjust the pace to what your dog needs that day. These sessions are perfect if you are managing a dog with separation anxiety, reactivity, or just a pup who struggles to settle at home. We aren't training for performance; we are training for peace of mind. By the time we head back, your dog isn't just physically tired; they are mentally satisfied. ## About Kirti Tripathi I'm Kirti. I realized that my own dogs, Candy and Russel, needed more than just a quick round the block. They needed to sniff, explore, and breathe. That realization changed how I work. I don't just walk dogs; I help them find their calm.
