But What If This ONE Tool Could Save Your Dog’s Life?

This week, Jess and Scott discuss the power of dog training tools. While some dog professionals would never consider even walking a dog from a flat collar, other dog trainers are well versed in their tool usage. When it comes to dog owners, we try to help you streamline the complexity. 

 

Who are the people trying to ban tools in North America?

Why does it matter that you have a wide knowledge of dog training methodologies as a professional?

What should dog owners trust above all else when it comes to training their own dogs?

What Do You Want to Attract?

This week, Jess and Scott discuss the law of attraction as it pertains to dog training. There has been a significant amount of conflict in 2023 so far about training methodologies, industry regulation, equipment bans, and verbiage in dog training. This episode is intended to break that cycle and serve as an inspiration.

Why is it important to focus on what you WANT from your dog?

How can we use tools to get ourselves centered for a dog training session?

What is the easiest way to avoid problem behaviors and how can you attract THAT?

Don’t Forget About The Dog

Why is it important as a family to include the dog around the holidays? 

What can I do with my dog in the upcoming year that might serve both of us?
