The Canine Paradigm: Recent Episodes
Glenn
In Episode 370 of The Canine Paradigm, Glenn and Pat begin with a quick recap on The Bear and the lessons carried over from the previous conversation. However, the main focus quickly moves into a topic that always seems to stir emotion in the dog training world: punishment.
Recently, parts of the training community have been poking holes in each other’s understanding of punishment, learning theory, and how these concepts apply in real dog training. Some of those conversations have been useful. They have encouraged trainers to think harder, define terms more clearly, and question whether they truly understand the concepts they discuss. In that sense, good critique can improve the industry.
At the same time, not all of it has been helpful. Some discussions have looked less like education and more like performance. When the goal shifts from clarity to clicks, the conversation can quickly become personal, hostile, and unproductive.
In this episode, Glenn and Pat try to stay out of the cheap shots while still spitballing their own thoughts on punishment, communication, consequence, and education. The aim is not to win an argument. Instead, it is to think more clearly about a difficult topic and encourage better conversations around training.

In Episode 369 of The Canine Paradigm, Glenn and Pat catch up after a run of recent adventures, including PSA trials, Red Team work, and the arrival of a new dog. However, the main thread of this episode comes from two powerful episodes of The Bear, titled Fishes and Forks and the phrase, every second counts.
Glenn explains how he interpreted those episodes through a dog training lens. Fishes shows chaos, pressure, poor communication, emotional overload, and the damage that can happen when people are stuck reacting instead of leading. In contrast, Forks shows what can happen when someone is placed in the right environment, given structure, trusted with responsibility, and allowed to discover their own value.
From there, we connect those ideas back to dogs, handlers, and trainers. Some dogs live in constant noise, pressure, and confusion. Others begin to change when we give them clarity, standards, purpose, and a chance to succeed. The same applies to people learning the craft. Training is not just about commands. It is about environment, timing, leadership, confidence, and creating moments where the learner starts to believe they can do better.
This episode is part catch-up, part television breakdown, and part dog training reflection. If you loved The Bear, or if you care about how pressure and purpose shape behaviour, this one will make sense.

In Episode 368 of The Canine Paradigm, Glenn and Pat discuss the uncomfortable reality of aggression in dogs and the question many owners quietly ask themselves. How unbearable does aggression need to be before people seek help, change course, or finally admit the situation is no longer manageable?
Aggression affects millions of dog owners around the world, yet it is often misunderstood, minimised, excused, or handled too late. In this episode, we explore the nuance behind aggressive behaviour, including fear, conflict, frustration, genetics, environment, learning history, and poor management. We also discuss why aggression is not always loud, obvious, or dramatic. Sometimes it builds slowly through small warnings that people miss or dismiss.
The conversation looks at the emotional toll aggression places on families, the risk to visitors, other animals, and the wider community, and why owners often become stuck between love, guilt, fear, and responsibility. We also talk about the importance of accurate assessment, honest advice, and realistic training plans.
This is not a simple topic, and it should never be treated like one. However, with better understanding, earlier intervention, and clearer decision-making, many owners can make safer and more informed choices for their dogs and everyone around them.

In Episode 367 of The Canine Paradigm, we explore how a dog understands its name and whether that understanding is anything like the way humans think about names. For people, a name often carries identity, history, emotion, ownership, and social meaning. However, for dogs, the concept may work very differently.
We walk through the difference between human interpretation and canine learning. Does the dog understand its name as “me”, or has the sound simply become a cue that predicts attention, movement, reward, pressure, or interaction? We also discuss how owners often use a dog’s name in confusing ways, sometimes as a recall, sometimes as a warning, sometimes as background noise, and sometimes as a correction.
From there, we look at how to build a cleaner name response. If the name means orient to the handler, then we need to teach that clearly. If it means prepare for information, then the dog needs a consistent history attached to it. Either way, the lesson is the same. The dog’s name is not magic. It is a trained signal, shaped by repetition, emotion, timing, and consequence.
This episode will make you think differently about one of the most common words your dog hears every day.

https://thecanineparadigm.com/2026/05/29/the-method-that-works-on-every-dog/
In Episode 366 of The Canine Paradigm, we start with Pat giving an update on Remco’s health battle and what the last stretch has looked like. From there, we move into a conversation that matters for every dog owner who has ever felt overwhelmed by advice online.
We unpack the trainers who claim they have the one method that works on every dog. We discuss why that promise is so appealing, why it sells, and why it usually fails in the real world. Dogs differ in genetics, history, learning style, and emotional resilience, so a single approach will never fit every case without adjustment.
We also talk about the types of people these claims prey on, such as owners who feel desperate, guilty, or confused, and who want certainty more than they want complexity. At the same time, we explore the audience these trainers actually attract, including those who want identity, belonging, and a simple story that makes them feel safe.
This episode is a reminder that good training is not about magic methods. It is about judgement, clarity, and adapting to the dog in front of you.

In Episode 365 of The Canine Paradigm, we work through listener questions and cover the kind of practical training issues that show up in real homes and real schedules. Along the way, we also talk about avoiding burn out, because training does not happen in a vacuum. If the handler is fried, the plan falls apart, so we discuss how to structure work in a way that is sustainable.
Then, because our TCP listeners keep requesting it, we take a sharp turn into alien territory. The conversation moves from dog training to aliens, and the result is exactly what you would expect. It is part training Q and A, part sanity check, and part alien invasion detour that somehow still circles back to how people think, decide, and cope under pressure.
If you want an episode that has useful takeaways but does not take itself too seriously, this one will land well.

In Episode 363 of The Canine Paradigm, things get wild, technical, and a little heavenly. Glenn opens with an update on Ladybug after she nearly tried to punch her own ticket to the pearly gates again. We talk through what happened, what the recovery looks like, and why these moments hit so hard when you live life with dogs.
Then we pivot back to the listeners. We asked what topics you want, and you delivered. One question took the episode into a completely different orbit. What happens when AI starts interacting as a dog trainer, and how far could that realistically go? We explore what AI can do well, where it will fail, and why real-world training still depends on timing, observation, and judgement that is hard to replicate through a screen.
It is part life update, part community chat, and part future-facing debate. Expect laughs, a bit of emotion, and a surprisingly technical dive, all in the one show.

In Episode 363 of The Canine Paradigm, we talk about a mindset that changes everything, I’m strong enough to tackle this situation. The first step is learning the dog you actually have, not the dog you wish you had. We discuss reading the individual in front of you, understanding what drives them, and identifying where they feel capable versus where they feel unsure.
From there, we focus on confidence. When a dog lacks confidence in a specific area, many owners either avoid it completely or push into it too hard. Neither approach builds real strength. Instead, we explain why you need a skillset that lets you build around the weak column. You develop clear training reps, predictable setups, and controlled exposures that teach the dog it can cope. Over time, the dog stops reacting with the same emotional charge because it now has a history of success.
This episode is about turning uncertainty into capability. It is about showing the dog a path forward, then proving it through repetition. If you are working with a dog that hesitates, startles, shuts down, or overreacts, this conversation will help you build a plan that creates real confidence, not just temporary avoidance.

In Episode 362 of The Canine Paradigm, we start with a short recap from our recent chat with Nick Benger and the wider issue of people in the industry who wear masks to dupe their followers. We talk about how performance and branding can replace honesty, and why that creates confusion for owners trying to do the right thing.
Then we get into the real value of this episode. When training starts to fall apart, most people try to fix the top layer. However, the fastest way forward is often to go back. We explain what it actually means to take a dog owner back through the basics properly, so their skills improve and the dog gets clarity again. We discuss timing, consistency, reinforcement delivery, and clean criteria, because small errors in the basics show up later as big problems in advanced work.
If you have struggled with bad out, recall, loose lead walking, reactivity, or reliability, this episode will help you rebuild the foundation that makes everything else easier. The goal is not to start over out of defeat. The goal is to return to basics with intent, then build forward with confidence.

In Episode 361 of The Canine Paradigm, we sit together in the studio to welcome Dr Melanie Uhde to Australia. Melanie spent a week in the country with Glenn, fitting in as many sights as humanly possible, before delivering two weekend seminars, one in Sydney and one in Melbourne. It was a big week, a lot of learning, and a lot of laughs.
We talk about what it was like bringing evidence-based education to Australian audiences, what stood out in the seminars, and why Melanie’s approach resonates with people who want something solid rather than something performative. Pat also asks Melanie directly about the online trolling and pressure that comes with publicly holding a science-first position. The conversation gets candid. Pat shares his disgust for parts of the industry that hide behind followers, bend the truth, and attack people who bring facts to the table.
This episode is part recap, part behind-the-scenes, and part reality check. If you value integrity, education, and honest discussion in dog training, you will enjoy this one.

In Episode 360 of The Canine Paradigm, we sit down with UK trainer Nick Benger for a long, honest conversation that runs close to two hours. Nick has been a prominent part of the positive only dog training movement, however his thinking shifted after an epiphany while considering dog sport training. That shift led him to question what he believed, what he had been taught, and what he had been telling others.
We talk through the moment the penny dropped, what changed in his perspective, and what it feels like to step away from a tribe that rewards conformity. We also discuss a problem that frustrates many people in the dog world. Some trainers publicly condemn balanced trainers and the use of tools, while privately using the same tools themselves. Worse still, they keep telling their followers they do not use them, even while building their brand on attacking the people who do. We unpack the ethics of that, the impact it has on owners, and how it poisons honest education.
This is not a hit piece. It is a serious conversation about integrity, identity, and what happens when reality collides with ideology. If you care about honesty in dog training, this episode is worth your time.

In Episode 359 of The Canine Paradigm, Pat drops a classic ethics grenade on Glenn: the trolley problem of five versus one. An out of control trolley is racing down the track and you are standing next to the lever. On one track, five people are tied down. On the other, one person is tied down. You can pull the lever or you can do nothing, and either way someone pays the price.
We unpack what that dilemma reveals about values, responsibility, and how people justify hard decisions. Then, as we always do, we drag it back to dogs.
Training and behaviour work often forces choices between competing outcomes, safety versus freedom, fairness versus convenience, short term compliance versus long term understanding. Sometimes the decision is not comfortable, but it is still required.
This episode is part philosophy, part dog training reality check, and it will make you think about why you do what you do when the pressure is on.

In Episode 358 of The Canine Paradigm, we talk about tool bans and the wider pattern behind them. Across Australia and elsewhere, governments appear willing to trade away rights and privileges without proper consent, expert input, or ethical process. We unpack why this worries dog owners, trainers, and working-dog handlers, and why many feel angry and disappointed with leadership that seems to act first and consult later.
We discuss what “consultation” should mean, how evidence should be weighed, and how tool removal can harm outcomes for dogs when nuance is ignored. Then we outline practical, professional actions for anyone who wants to contribute constructively: read drafts, ask for the data set, submit calm feedback, contact your local member, support credible peak bodies, and challenge bad arguments without personal attacks. The goal is workable standards that protect dogs and the public, not headline wins.

In Episode 357 of The Canine Paradigm, we unpack a simple truth. When a dog does not know what earns success, confusion grows, and confusion creates conflict. We look at how to define success clearly, how to show the dog what “good” looks like, and how to design training futures so today’s choices support tomorrow’s behaviour.
Then we discuss clean criteria, plain language markers, and reinforcement that truly matches the behaviour you want. We talk about splitting steps, rehearsing short wins, and avoiding mixed messages that push the dog into conflict. Then we map training futures. If you plan to trial, travel, live in a busy family, or manage reactivity, what must the dog learn now so the future is easier, not harder?
You will leave with a tidy framework. Set the goal, write the criteria, pick the markers, choose the reinforcers, and test the picture in new places. When success is obvious and repeatable, conflict drops and progress speeds up.

Happy New Year and welcome back to The Canine Paradigm. We start 2026 with a clear message. Too many rules and laws are being introduced at speed, without fair consultation, and often without evidence that they will achieve what is claimed. In Episode 356, I don’t approve so I want it banned is the belief we are pushing back against.
We talk about how sudden bans and policy shifts affect dogs, owners, trainers and the wider community. We look at the real cost of rushed regulation, the way lobby groups and loud voices can drown out good data, and why professional, respectful pushback matters. Most of all, we call on our community to act like adults. Ask for the evidence. Read the draft. Submit feedback. Write to your MP or councillor. Support peak bodies and experts who show their work. Name poor process without insulting people. Hold a line without losing your head.
If you care about workable standards, fair consultation and policies that actually help dogs and families, this is your episode. Clarity beats outrage. Process beats posturing. Let’s lift the level.

In Episode 355 of The Canine Paradigm, we ask a simple question with a messy answer. Is a tired dog a good dog, or just a flat one? We look at why clients and trainers sometimes try to tire the dog out before a lesson, and when that helps or hurts. Then, we weigh arousal, clarity, and quality of reps, and we talk about warm ups, decompression, and sensible resets.
We also touch on session design, neutral exposures, and how to set criteria that the dog can actually meet. Sometimes you need a little exercise to take the edge off. Sometimes you need freshness, focus, and fuel in the tank. Choosing well is the craft.
To keep spirits high, we finish with a few side notes and celebrate Step Brothers as one of the greatest films ever made. Boats and Hoes does not make it into the training plan, but it does make us laugh.

In this episode of The Canine Paradigm, Pat asks Glenn about travelling around Australia to work with Pet Resorts Australia teams on the floor. The focus is showing staff how to read dog behaviour in real time, so social boarding and daycare stay safe, structured, and enjoyable. We discuss how to set sessions up well, how to brief simple rules, and how to notice the early signs that a group needs a reset.
We cover practical ideas staff can apply immediately. For example, start with a calm entry, match energy levels, and use short check-ins to keep arousal steady. Then, read the small signals that precede problems, such as fixed stares, speeding up, stillness, or crowding. If you see them, you can redirect, split, or take a short break before tension grows. Finally, record what mattered so the next shift benefits from the same clarity.
It is a straightforward conversation about staff confidence, safer choices, and keeping the experience good for dogs and people.

In Episode 353 of The Canine Paradigm, we talk about how genuine science gets twisted online and why that matters for dogs and their people. We begin with voices who keep the facts straight, including Dr Melanie Uhde, and show how clear reporting can upset those who rely on vibes over evidence. Then we look at the pattern that follows. Big personalities rarely enter the arena themselves. Instead, they rally highly engaged followers to attack, while they stay behind the wall and keep their hands clean.
We unpack how this cycle forms, why confused audiences become cannon fodder, and how to protect good discussion from bad faith tactics. Most importantly, we share practical ways owners and trainers can check claims, reduce drama, and keep the focus where it belongs, on dogs and results.

In Episode 352 of The Canine Paradigm, we look at stereotypes of dog owners on social media. First, we talk about how these labels form, why the algorithms reward them, and how that shapes what owners believe about training. Then we contrast two worlds. On one side, ethical and brilliant trainers who teach clearly and show real progress. On the other, clout chasers who market better than they train and turn drama into a business model. We explore how to spot red flags, how to verify claims, and how to find reliable guidance that helps dogs and families. It is a practical guide to cutting through noise, choosing better voices, and keeping the focus where it belongs, on the dog.

In this gloriously grubby edition of The Canine Paradigm, we lean right into the dog pooh life and answer the two questions you sent that made us laugh out loud. First, our worst dog diarrhoea story. We relive the slip, the splatter, and the sprint for paper towels, then talk through what the mess told us about health, how we calmed the situation, rehydrated, and reset the diet without drama. Next, a classic training confession. A listener asked for a memorable time a dog blew us off in a session. We share the look, the turn away, and the magnetic pull toward anything more interesting, then explain how we rebuilt engagement with clearer cues, better rhythm, and sensible expectations.

In this episode, we shift the lens away from outcomes and titles and look at what often gets overlooked, the dog’s experience during training. Is the dog learning with clarity, or simply complying under pressure? Are we building understanding or just building behaviour?
We explore how training isn’t just about what a dog does at the end of a program, but how they felt throughout the journey. Confidence, confusion, fear, motivation, these internal states shape the long-term success of training more than most realise.
Whether you’re a trainer, a handler, or a dog owner, this conversation will get you thinking deeply about what it feels like to be on the other end of the lead. Because the best training doesn’t just teach skills, it builds trust, optimism, and resilience.

In Episode 349 of The Canine Paradigm, we dive deep into a question that gets to the heart of dog ownership, what do most families actually need their dog to be trained to do?
We explore the essential skills and behaviours that, if taught properly, make the difference between a happy, well-integrated companion and a dog that ends up rehomed or worse. From recall and loose-leash walking to house manners and neutrality, we outline the minimum viable behaviours that support a successful relationship between dogs and their people.
We also venture into a future-facing discussion, will AI replace dog trainers? As artificial intelligence grows more sophisticated, there’s speculation around whether it can guide pet owners well enough to put real trainers out of work. We weigh up the possibilities, challenges, and realities of automation in our industry.
This one’s both practical and philosophical, and we hope it sparks thought and discussion.

In this lively and insightful episode, Glenn sits down in person with three of the industry’s entertaining and passionate figures, Jacob Morgan from the Yorkshire Canine Academy, Ian Kirke, also from YCA, and Simon Moody (aka the Mutt Nut, aka the Best Dog Trainer in the Universe).
Unfortunately, Pat couldn’t join us for the episode, but when the universe gifts you the Mutt Nut, you’ve got to shake and bake.
What follows is a candid conversation filled with laughs, stories, and reflections on the dog training industry as it stands today. We discuss some of the things we love most about the work we do and the community we’re part of, but we also explore the challenges and frustrations that come with it.
Whether you’re a trainer, a dog owner, or just someone who appreciates real talk and real dogs, this episode brings a blend of humour, heart, and hard-earned perspective from people deeply immersed in the craft.

In this emotionally charged episode, Glenn and Pat hit the reset button after scrapping their original recording, something we don’t often do. The reason? Frustration and sadness. The original session had been overshadowed by anger and disbelief at the overwhelming wave of negativity sweeping through both the dog training community and the wider world.
Rather than push out content clouded by emotion, we chose to re-record with clearer intent, to voice their concern, reflect more calmly, and explore why it feels like something is very wrong right now.
The conversation touches on a wide range of disturbing behaviours, events, and trends that seem to be surfacing more frequently, whether in the dog world, where dishonesty and division are growing, or in society at large. One example mentioned is Charlie Kirk, whose assassination happened just days after we had mentioned him in passing, highlighting just how volatile and shocking some people are behaving right now.
As seasoned professionals who work to better the lives of dogs and their people, Glenn and Pat ask the deeper questions: How do we maintain sanity in this kind of chaos? Where do we find our personal compass when values are blurred and trust is eroded?
This episode won’t offer answers, but it’s a raw, thoughtful reflection worth hearing. If you’ve been feeling the heaviness too, you’re not alone.

In this episode, Glenn and Pat take a hard look at the ethical cracks forming in the professional dog training industry. Prompted by Justin Rigney, who continues to call out deceptive trainers, telling lies or hiding their use of tools, we dive deep into the consequences of rewarding the wrong behaviours, not in dogs, but in people.
Too often, we see professionals extending hospitality, collaboration, and trust to individuals or organisations who do not reciprocate. These individuals happily accept support and visibility, while simultaneously working to undermine the very values and standards that good trainers work so hard to uphold. This episode challenges that imbalance. Why do we keep giving platforms to those who distort the narrative or operate in bad faith?
Furthermore, we explore how the desire to be liked or seen as reasonable sometimes results in us turning a blind eye. However, in doing so, we can inadvertently harm the industry, our clients, and ultimately, the dogs themselves. There comes a time when drawing a line is no longer a matter of ego, but a professional and moral imperative.
If you’re tired of watching good people get burned while others flourish through manipulation and dishonesty, this episode is for you.

In Episode 345 of The Canine Paradigm, we’re joined once again by our wonderful friend and regular guest, Birdy O’Sheedy. This conversation revolves around the real, often under appreciated, joy of simply living a full and present life with our dogs. It’s a reminder of why we do what we do.
Together, we explore the deep connection between humans and dogs, one built not only on training and structure, but on unconditional love, shared moments, and being truly present. As coaches in our respective fields, we reflect on how our mission has always been about improving that bond for the people and dogs we serve.
If you’ve ever found yourself smiling at your dog for no reason at all, or wondered how to bring more meaning to your life together, this episode will speak to you. It’s not about methodology, it’s about mindset, presence, and the joy of love that needs no justification.

In this eye-opening episode of The Canine Paradigm, Glenn and Pat explore the full weight of what happens when a dog is declared a nuisance, menacing, or dangerous by council authorities.
Firstly, they unpack how such labels don’t just affect the dog. Instead, the repercussions ripple through entire households. Families must adjust their routines, manage legal obligations, and cope with emotional stress. Meanwhile, victims of the incident face their own challenges, often receiving little support despite the trauma they may carry.
Importantly, the conversation shifts to another growing concern: the influx of underqualified trainers who are diving into these high-stakes cases. Because the space is so complex and technical, those without proper knowledge or experience often do more harm than good. Rather than helping, their involvement can escalate issues and delay meaningful outcomes.
Throughout the episode, Glenn and Pat explain why navigating dangerous dog declarations requires expertise, not guesswork. Professionals in this space must understand behaviour on a deeper level, while also grasping legal context and community impact. Without that foundation, even well-meaning trainers can make mistakes that cost dearly.
Ultimately, this episode serves as both a warning and a call for higher standards. It highlights the need for responsibility, not just in councils and courts, but also within the dog training industry itself.
If you’re a dog owner, trainer, or decision-maker involved in behavioural cases, this is a conversation you can’t afford to miss.

In this moving episode of The Canine Paradigm, Glenn and Pat welcome back their close friend and regular guest, Birdy O’Sheedy, for a conversation that speaks to the soul of dog ownership.
This time, Birdy introduces us to her new initiative, The Magic in Dogs. While it isn’t a training program, it offers something equally valuable—a shift in perspective. Instead of focusing solely on control or obedience, Birdy invites us to reconnect with our dogs in a more present and intentional way.
Throughout the episode, Birdy shares her experiences working with dogs and the people who love them. More importantly, she reflects on the quiet moments, the ones that often go unnoticed but ultimately shape the relationship. Rather than prescribing quick solutions, she encourages curiosity, awareness, and a deeper emotional bond.
As the discussion unfolds, it becomes clear that building a strong relationship with your dog doesn’t always require doing more. Sometimes, it simply requires seeing more, something Birdy explains beautifully.
If you’ve ever felt like there was more to the bond you share with your dog, but you couldn’t quite put it into words, this episode is for you.
We hope it leaves you with something to reflect on and perhaps something to explore at themagicindogs.com

In this powerful episode of The Canine Paradigm, Glenn and Pat reconnect with one of their favourite guests, Dr Melanie Uhde. Known for her no-nonsense, science-first approach to canine behaviour and training, Melanie has become a respected but polarising figure in the dog world.
Her deep dives into peer-reviewed research and willingness to challenge misinformation have been applauded by many, but they’ve also drawn the ire of some high-profile dog trainers more concerned with protecting their brand than evolving with the truth.
We discuss the toll of speaking out in a field still dominated by ego, outdated narratives, and commercial agendas. Melanie opens up about some of the shocking threats and intimidation she’s received simply for presenting facts. But through it all, her resolve remains: stay true to the science and protect dogs from the fallout of flawed ideologies.
If you care about what’s real and what works, this is an episode you don’t want to miss.

In this episode of The Canine Paradigm, Glenn and Pat unpack a viral video that’s got social media buzzing. It shows a dog walking into a situation and seemingly “resolving” a behavioural issue between other dogs, sparking all kinds of commentary about dominance, energy, and control. But is that really what’s going on?Glenn and Pat break down what might actually be happening, without the hype or projection and why it’s important to remain critical of viral interpretations dressed up as truth.The episode also revisits the ongoing debate about training tool bans. Why are certain people and groups still trying to outlaw effective tools that improve dog welfare and handler safety? The discussion explores the motivations behind these bans and the harm they cause when politics overrides practical knowledge.Finally, the show calls out the growing number of individuals claiming expertise in dog training without the depth, experience, or results to back it up. When status becomes self-declared, it undermines real learning and misleads dog owners looking for help.This is one of those episodes where we say what others won’t, because dogs deserve better.Further DetailsAre you in search of top-tier dog trainers and steadfast supporters of the Canine Paradigm?

In this episode, Glenn and Pat explore the vital role of rhythm and rituals in dog training. These two elements, when intentionally used, can provide clarity and structure to the training process—both for the dog and the handler.The episode breaks down how rituals help dogs understand how to enter a scenario correctly. Whether it's a training session, a working environment, or a daily routine, consistent rituals reduce confusion, build engagement, and set clear expectations from the outset.Equally important is the idea of developing rhythm throughout your training, which ensures continuity, flow, and a sense of timing that strengthens communication. When applied properly, rhythm supports the integrity of your work and helps maintain focus and consistency over time.If you’ve ever felt your sessions were chaotic or that your dog was unsure about what's expected, this episode will help you refine your process and bring more balance and clarity to your training.Further DetailsAre you in search of top-tier dog trainers and steadfast supporters of the Canine Paradigm?

In this episode of The Canine Paradigm, we respond to a thought-provoking question from one of our listeners: Is burning out the same as failing? Burnout is a topic that hits close to home for many dog trainers, handlers, and professionals working in emotionally and physically demanding environments.Glenn and Pat dive into the nuances of burnout—how it differs from failure, where the overlap exists, and why it’s essential to make the distinction. They discuss personal insights, the mental weight of pressure and expectation, and the cultural narratives that often conflate stepping back with giving up.We also invite our community to weigh in. If this resonates with you, we’d love to hear your perspective about burnout in The Canine Paradigm Facebook group, where the discussion continues.Further DetailsAre you in search of top-tier dog trainers and steadfast supporters of the Canine Paradigm?

In this episode of The Canine Paradigm, Glenn and Pat dive into a reality that’s often overlooked: dog training can be messy. It’s not always a clean, linear process. There are times when our communication with dogs—or even our students—isn’t as clear as it needs to be, and that lack of clarity can hinder progress.We explore how training sessions sometimes fall apart not because of effort, but because of missing or miscommunicated information. Whether it's the handler failing to clearly mark behaviours, or a student misunderstanding a concept, clarity is critical. The episode looks at how to better identify these gaps and provide the information needed to reduce confusion and increase success in training outcomes.Whether you’re a trainer, handler, or dog owner, this episode serves as a reminder that the messiness of dog training isn’t failure—it’s a sign that better communication is needed.Further DetailsAre you in search of top-tier dog trainers and steadfast supporters of the Canine Paradigm?

Episode 334: You Made Me a Better Trainer is a deeply personal tribute to Randy, who recently passed away.Sometimes, putting out an episode makes things all too real—and that was the case here. Avoiding the microphone felt easier than confronting the grief. But Randy deserves to be honoured properly. He wasn’t just a dog—he was a mentor, a friend, and someone who profoundly shaped how I train. he was a big loss to Narelle and IIn this episode, Pat and I reflect on the lessons he taught us—some spoken, some quietly observed—and the immense gratitude we feel for having known him. There are dogs who enter your life and leave a mark that never fades. Randy was one of those dogs.“The greatness of a dog is not in how he dies, but in how he lives, and the lives he touches along the way.” Glenn CookeThis isn’t a typical training episode.

In this episode of The Canine Paradigm, Glenn and Pat introduce a structured concept that Pat has been refining—the Dog Trainer's Triangle of Control. This model focuses on controlling three essential elements: the dog, the reinforcer, and the environment.The triangle offers trainers a simple yet powerful blueprint for structuring learning in the early phases of dog training and life development. By managing these three factors, trainers can significantly reduce confusion, improve communication, and create optimal learning conditions for dogs. Glenn and Pat break down how each point of the triangle works in practice and why this method is highly effective when applied thoughtfully.If you’re looking to strengthen your foundational training or rethink how you set up your sessions, this episode will provide a highly actionable framework.Further DetailsAre you in search of top-tier dog trainers and steadfast supporters of the Canine Paradigm?

In this episode of The Canine Paradigm, we welcome our first guest of 2025, Gavin Crown, one of the few individuals in the world certified to teach CrossFit. As an expert in structured training, Gavin brings a fresh perspective on how fitness principles could enhance dog training.Many dog training methods rely on subjective assessments. However, fitness training follows a structured approach that tracks progress over time. By applying similar principles, trainers could improve their ability to measure a dog’s development, adjust training strategies, and ensure long-term success.Additionally, Glenn discusses an issue that is slowing down progress in the dog training industry. While trainers constantly seek to refine their techniques, some member groups actively block innovations. As a result, many professionals face unnecessary roadblocks, preventing real advancements in dog training.So, how can we change this? This episode explores practical solutions, offering a new way to think about progress. By combining structured tracking with modern training approaches, we can create a more effective and accountable system for trainers and dog owners alike.Further DetailsAre you in search of top-tier dog trainers and steadfast supporters of the Canine Paradigm?

In this follow-up episode of The Canine Paradigm, we continue last week’s discussion on PETA’s stance on dog ownership. This time, we take a closer look at past comments allegedly made by Ingrid Newkirk, the founder of PETA, which suggest a desire to see pet ownership come to an end.Some of our listeners pointed out that PETA actively encourages people to adopt dogs from shelters. While this may seem contradictory, we examine whether there is a deeper motive behind this message. Could promoting shelter adoptions be part of a larger agenda?Glenn and Pat explore these perspectives, shedding light on the inconsistencies and controversies surrounding PETA’s messaging.

The importance of time and Hermetic principles. Glenn and Pat delve into two interconnected yet unique topics: the value of time and the application of Hermetic principles.Glenn highlights the critical role time plays in the lives of our dogs, emphasising how professionals in the dog industry—whether trainers or health specialists—are effectively giving dogs the gift of more time. By enhancing their quality of life, resolving behavioural challenges, or improving their overall health, these professionals add immeasurable value to the lives of our canine companions.Pat takes the discussion into an intriguing direction by introducing the Hermetic principles, a set of philosophical teachings that explore universal truths. He shares how these principles influence his perspective on dog training, problem-solving, and personal development. This blend of philosophical and practical insights offers a fresh perspective on how we approach our relationships with dogs and the time we share with them.Join us for a thought-provoking conversation that merges the tangible impact of time with the philosophical depth of Hermetic teachings.Further DetailsAre you in search of top-tier dog trainers and steadfast supporters of the Canine Paradigm?

As part of the fun, Pat dives into his fascination with the global sightings of drones and mysterious orbs, sparking a lively and light-hearted discussion.The episode then transitions to a controversial topic inspired by a recent publication claiming that dogs wearing a harness or collar are more likely to pull. We explore the science and implications of this claim, breaking down whether the tool itself is to blame or if the issue lies in the approach to training.

In this episode, Who is the main character in your story? We dive into the complexities of dog training communities and the dynamics that arise within them. Recent verbal scuffles and heated discussions have led to accusations of cult-like behaviour among some groups and businesses in the dog training world. These disputes have raised important questions about loyalty, influence, and why people may follow individuals or organisations that demonstrate harmful or manipulative behaviour.We examine the psychological factors that drive such loyalty, from a desire for belonging to fear of exclusion or retaliation. We also explore how power dynamics, charisma, and manipulation tactics can play a significant role in these situations.This episode invites listeners to reflect on their own experiences in the dog training industry—or any community they are part of—and consider who the main character in their story truly is. Are you acting in alignment with your values, or are you being directed by someone else’s agenda? Join us for an honest and thought-provoking discussion about influence, responsibility, and personal agency.Further DetailsAre you in search of top-tier dog trainers and steadfast supporters of the Canine Paradigm?

In this weeks episode of The Canine Paradigm, we explore some of the most common challenges faced by dog owners and trainers, including resource guarding, destructive chewing, aggression, and a general lack of understanding of dog behaviour. The phrase “Stop Focusing on the Spider” serves as a reminder not to fixate on surface-level issues while overlooking deeper behavioural causes.We discuss how focusing too narrowly on a specific behaviour can cause trainers and owners to miss the bigger picture. For example, addressing destructive chewing requires understanding the root causes, such as boredom, anxiety, or unmet needs. Similarly, dealing with aggression or resource guarding goes beyond simply stopping the behaviour—it’s about understanding the underlying motivations and triggers.Throughout the episode, we break down practical strategies for approaching behaviour issues holistically. We highlight the importance of continuous learning and developing a deeper understanding of animal behaviour. Whether you're a trainer or a dog owner, this episode offers valuable insights into managing problem behaviours with a well-rounded approach.Further DetailsAre you in search of top-tier dog trainers and steadfast supporters of the Canine Paradigm?

In this weeks episode of The Canine Paradigm, we delve into the fascinating interplay between negative reinforcement and positive reinforcement in dog training. The concept of “pushing in and pulling out of behaviour” explains how negative reinforcement can push a dog into a desired behaviour, while positive reinforcement pulls them out by rewarding completion.We explore how this dynamic works in shaping behaviours and how it fits into the broader phases of training. From the initial learning stages to proofing behaviours for reliability, understanding the balance of reinforcement types can significantly improve training outcomes.Hopefully you will gain insights into practical applications of this concept, with examples of how to use shaping effectively to create clear communication with your dog. Whether you’re working on foundational behaviours or refining advanced skills, this episode provides valuable strategies for better training results.Further DetailsAre you in search of top-tier dog trainers and steadfast supporters of the Canine Paradigm?

In this episode , we continue last week’s conversation about the challenges faced by dog rescue groups. While the previous episode focused on the difficulties presented by gatekeepers and front-facing roles, this week we shift the spotlight to the other side of the coin—poor accountability from those seeking to adopt or surrender dogs.Rescue workers often deal with a barrage of excuses and a lack of responsibility from the public, making their already demanding jobs even more challenging. We unpack some of the most frustrating behaviours and explore how personal accountability can make a huge difference for rescue organisations, adopters, and the dogs themselves.Beyond rescue, we discuss troubling behaviours in the broader dog industry. From unprofessionalism to ethical missteps, we address the importance of accountability at all levels. Finally, we dive into some wild conspiracies that initially seemed far-fetched but turned out to be surprisingly true.This episode is an eye-opener for anyone passionate about dog welfare, offering insights into the struggles of rescue workers, the importance of personal accountability, and some jaw-dropping industry stories.Further DetailsAre you in search of top-tier dog trainers and steadfast supporters of the Canine Paradigm?

In this weeks episode, we tackle some of the frustrating realities of the dog rescue world. We discuss how certain rescue groups create excessive red tape and barriers, making it incredibly difficult for well-meaning adopters to rescue a dog. This unnecessary gatekeeping can delay or prevent good people from giving a dog a loving home, and we explore why this happens and its impact on both adopters and dogs.On the flip side, we highlight the issue of loose operators who quickly “flip” dogs without the proper care or management. These operators often overlook essential safety and behavioural checks, putting both the dogs and new owners at risk. The episode brings to light these stark contrasts within the dog rescue community.However, it’s not all criticism. We also take a moment to recognise and celebrate the incredible rescue workers who truly make a difference. These dedicated individuals sacrifice time, energy, and resources to save dogs, often working tirelessly and under challenging conditions. Their passion and commitment deserve our deepest respect and gratitude.Join us as we unpack the complexities of the dog rescue world, share real stories, and advocate for a more balanced, responsible approach to helping dogs in need.Further DetailsAre you in search of top-tier dog trainers and steadfast supporters of the Canine Paradigm?

In this episode of The Canine Paradigm, Glenn Cooke shares his incredible experiences in America alongside his wife, Narelle Cooke. They attended the Feed Real Institute seminar, where leading experts in dog health and nutrition laid out the realities of poor-quality pet food and outlined simple yet effective changes to improve the well-being of our pets. The seminar was eye-opening, highlighting the significant impact nutrition has on both pet and working dogs.
Glenn and Narelle’s American adventure didn’t stop there. They travelled to meet enthusiastic TCP listeners and concluded their trip with a seminar in Virginia, hosted by Melanie Benware. Glenn proudly watched as Narelle captivated attendees over two days with her deep knowledge of canine nutrition. To top it off, Glenn presented a full day on puppy acceleration, offering guidance on how to raise puppies from breeders or rescue situations to reach their fullest potential, tailored to suit the family’s lifestyle.
The trip was not only successful but also enriching, filled with the joy of meeting wonderful people, old friends, and seeing the stunning sights of America. Join us as we recount the highlights, share insights from the seminar, and reflect on the incredible connections made along the way.

In this episode of The Canine Paradigm, we explore the intriguing question: Are dogs better off now compared to 30 years ago? With advancements in training methods, nutrition, and pet care, many would assume that dogs are living their best lives today. However, there are complexities to consider. Have modern lifestyle changes and human expectations placed additional stress on our canines?
We also discuss how humans often want their dogs to share emotional moments with them, but they don’t always perceive these moments in the same way. What means a lot to us may hold a different significance to our canine companions. Understanding how dogs interpret our emotions and actions is key to building a strong, fulfilling relationship with them.
Throughout the episode, we respond to questions from our TCP community, diving into topics that resonate with dog owners who wonder about the balance between modern conveniences and their dog’s overall well-being. Whether you’re a long-time dog owner or new to the world of dogs, this episode will get you thinking about how our relationships with dogs have evolved over the years.

In this episode, we explore the concept of “struggle cuddles” with your dog and dive into how perspectives in dog training can change over time. We discuss activities or techniques that trainers may have disliked or avoided in the past but have since embraced as valuable training tools. Additionally, we cover the opposite scenario—methods or practices trainers once believed in but now feel are ineffective or even counter-productive.
The conversation provides insights into how evolving experiences and learning can reshape a trainer’s approach to dog training. Just as trainers grow and adapt, it’s essential for dog owners to stay open to change and willing to adjust their methods based on new understandings. This episode offers a reflective look at the journey many trainers go through and the importance of continually questioning and refining training practices.
Whether you’re a professional trainer or a dedicated dog owner, this episode will encourage you to think critically about your own training preferences and how they may have changed over time.

In Episode 314 of The Canine Paradigm, we explore training methods to stop chasing behaviour in dogs by discussing a groundbreaking study titled “Comparison of the Efficacy and Welfare of Different Training Methods in Stopping Chasing Behavior in Dogs.” This study offers valuable insights into how different training approaches affect the success of stopping unwanted behaviours, particularly chasing, while considering the welfare of the dogs involved.
We break down the study’s findings, highlighting the pros and cons of various training methods to stop chasing behaviour in dogs. The research reveals that different methods can lead to varying degrees of success, especially when considering the impact on the dog’s well-being.
In addition, we delve into the topic of deprivation in dog training. While deprivation can sometimes enhance the effectiveness of training methods to stop chasing behaviour in dogs, it also raises concerns about ethics and welfare. We discuss how this approach fits into modern dog training and what it means for both the effectiveness and overall welfare of the dog.

In Episode 313 of The Canine Paradigm, we dive deep into the intricacies of reward placement, direct and indirect reinforcement, and how these elements impact training success. Moreover, understanding where and how you deliver rewards can drastically shape your dog’s behaviour. In particular, we explore the nuances of direct reinforcement, where the reward is tied closely to the dog’s action, versus indirect reinforcement, where the reward is less immediate.
Additionally, one of the key insights is how improper reward placement can lead to undesirable behaviours, including the development of chewy grips. For instance, we discuss why dogs may develop chewy grips when rewards are poorly timed or misplaced, and how owners often unknowingly contribute to this problem. As a result, it’s all too common for dog owners to unintentionally reinforce the wrong behaviours, leading to a confused or over-excited dog.
Finally, our goal is to help you become a more effective dog handler by shedding light on the small details that can make a huge difference in your training outcomes. Join us in this episode as we explain the connection between reinforcement strategies and common training challenges.

In this episode of The Canine Paradigm, we dive into a range of topics discussed in our training forum, including how to handle a bored dog and avoid turning them into a reactive mess. One common problem is how some dog owners inadvertently derail their dog’s training by making critical mistakes. We also explore how household partners, who aren’t fully invested in the training process, contribute to ongoing behavioural issues.
Moreover, we address the growing tension with force-free (FF) trainers and how their fear-mongering campaigns seem to be escalating. Rather than promoting balanced methods, some FF trainers are increasingly pushing extreme narratives that leave dog owners feeling anxious and overwhelmed.
A major takeaway from this episode is the importance of consistency in training. A bored dog can quickly develop destructive behaviours, like digging, when they’re not properly engaged. However, a lack of unity in the household can make even the best training programs ineffective. This episode provides actionable advice on how to engage your dog, keep them stimulated, and ensure all family members are on board with the training.

In the classic tale The Emperor’s New Clothes, the emperor is deceived into believing he is wearing fine garments when, in fact, he is wearing nothing at all. Similarly, some dog trainers on social media are forcing a narrative of success that does not truly exist. They craft stories of quick fixes and foolproof methods, but when dog owners apply these methods, the results often fall short. As a result, dog owners frequently find themselves frustrated when reality fails to meet the promises made by these trainers.
By forcing a narrative of success, these trainers rely heavily on flashy marketing and carefully edited videos to push their agenda. They insist their methods are perfect and will yield guaranteed results. However, when dog owners try to replicate these techniques at home, they soon discover that the narrative doesn’t hold up. The promises of instant transformation simply do not deliver in real-world situations.
Furthermore, these trainers often double down on forcing a narrative by blaming the dog owners when the methods fail. Instead of admitting that the training approach may be flawed, they claim the owner didn’t follow instructions properly. Consequently, dog owners end up doubting their abilities rather than recognising that the real issue lies in the forced narrative itself.
Therefore, to avoid being misled by such tactics, it is crucial for dog owners to find trainers who focus on delivering real, sustainable results rather than forcing a narrative that only serves to build their social media presence. Just as the emperor eventually realised he had been deceived, dog owners must see through the illusion. In the end, forcing a narrative may create temporary attention, but genuine success comes from proven, effective training methods that stand the test of time.

In Episode 310 of The Canine Paradigm, we discuss the dog training Rachael Raygun Olympic scandal and its implications for both the sports world and our industry. The controversy surrounding Rachael Raygun’s performance highlights a troubling trend: the perceived privilege of those with academic credentials, particularly PhDs, as the sole authorities on complex issues.
However, this bias isn’t limited to sports. In dog training, the divide between those with formal academic qualifications and those with extensive practical experience continues to grow. The dog training Rachael Raygun Olympic scandal shows that assuming PhDs alone hold all the answers is misguided. Moreover, this mindset creates rifts within our industry and undervalues the real-world expertise that experienced trainers bring to the table.
Furthermore, we’re concerned about the ongoing narrative that unfairly targets balanced trainers. Labelling these professionals as “punishment trainers” relies on emotional misinformation, which only serves to divide the community. This kind of gas lighting is exhausting and does nothing to improve dog training quality or the well-being of the dogs we care for.
Therefore, it’s time for a more balanced approach—one that respects both academic knowledge and practical experience. By fostering a more inclusive and open-minded discussion, we can create better outcomes for everyone, whether in the sports arena or within the dog training field.

n Episode 309 of our podcast, we dive into the critical concept of the canine ladder of aggression. This episode is a must-listen for both new and experienced dog trainers, as we break down the visual tool that illustrates the various levels of aggression in dogs, ranging from subtle signals to more overt behaviours.
Using the traffic light system, the ladder of aggression is an essential framework that helps trainers and handlers understand where a dog might be on the spectrum of stress and aggression. This system categorises the dog’s behaviour into green, yellow, and red zones, representing calm, warning, and dangerous stages, respectively.
Understanding these levels is crucial for preventing escalation and managing situations effectively. By recognising early signs of discomfort, trainers can intervene before a dog reaches a critical point, ensuring safer interactions for both dogs and handlers.

In a recent podcast episode, we addressed a controversial claim regarding the origins of dog sports, specifically an unfounded assertion that these activities and police dogs have ties to Nazi Germany. However, it is crucial to clarify that the origins of dog sports, such as obedience, agility, and protection work, are deeply rooted in history, well before any association with extremist ideologies. These sports were developed to enhance the bond between humans and dogs, promote physical fitness, and celebrate canine capabilities.
Moreover, the spread of misinformation, often perpetuated by content creators on platforms like YouTube, can distort the true origins of dog sports. Some creators, unfortunately, prioritize sensationalism over accuracy to attract views and generate income, which can lead to misleading narratives. Therefore, it’s essential for viewers to critically assess the sources of information. Additionally, content creators should uphold standards of accuracy and responsibility to avoid spreading falsehoods.

In this episode, Pat reveals Glenn his ambitious plan to address the working dog supply and demand issue in Australia by improving working dog genetics in Australia. With a focus on enhancing the genetics of working dogs, Pat’s vision aims to support both law enforcement and sporting groups by producing dogs with superior traits and capabilities.

In the latest episode of the Canine Paradigm, hosts Pat Stewart and Glenn Cooke dive into the nuanced and often controversial topic of how pharmaceuticals could be affecting the dog training industry. On a on-line discussion with Bill Church, also known as Bow Wow Bill, they discussed the increasing prevalence of medications prescribed to dogs and the implications for trainers and pet owners alike.
Glenn shares insights from his personal experiences, reflecting on advice from colleagues about the importance of active listening. This episode is a blend of personal growth and professional critique, highlighting the ethical considerations surrounding the use of medications in behaviour modification.
The conversation takes a critical look at the over-prescription of SSRIs and other medications, questioning whether the push for these treatments is influenced by pharmaceutical companies’ profit motives. They explore the challenges trainers face when working with medicated dogs, emphasising the need for a balanced approach that prioritises ethical practices and the well-being of the dogs.
Listeners will appreciate the deep dive into how societal changes, such as those brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic, have further complicated these issues.

Putting the dog back on lead is a fundamental skill that can significantly enhance training and repair various behavioural issues. Experts in the field emphasise the importance of this practice for both novice and experienced dog owners. They believe that putting the dog back on lead helps reinforce obedience, control, and trust between the handler and the dog.
This practice can correct behaviours such as pulling, lunging, and ignoring commands. When a dog is back on lead, it must focus on the handler, which strengthens the dog’s response to commands. This consistent practice helps dogs understand their boundaries and the expectations set by their owners.
Additionally, putting the dog back on lead can be a confidence booster for both the dog and the owner. It provides a structured environment where the dog can relearn and practice essential skills, making it easier to address and correct unwanted behaviours. The lead acts as a communication tool, guiding the dog and reinforcing positive behaviour.
Incorporating this practice into daily training routines ensures that dogs remain well-behaved and responsive. The simple act of putting the dog back on lead is a powerful method to enhance skills, repair training issues, and foster a stronger bond between the dog and the owner.
We mentioned Flexi leads in this episode and Jay Jack spoke about this in an older episode you can find here

we were thrilled to welcome Caisey Cainan, a friend of the show and one of the world’s most renowned big cat trainers. Caisey’s journey into the fascinating world of big cats began in his childhood when he ran away to join a circus.

The past couple of weeks in Sydney have been nothing short of amazing. We were thrilled to welcome our American family, Shawn and Janet Edwards, along with their colleagues Zack Burke and Travis Lloyd. Their expertise and passion for training were invaluable as they joined us for PSA trial judging, decoy certification, Deadpool decoy school, and Janet’s seminar.
Training is at the heart of everything we do, and having these experts with us elevated our sessions to new heights. The PSA trial judging was rigorous and insightful, providing our participants with constructive feedback to refine their techniques. Moreover, the decoy certification process was equally intense, ensuring that our decoys are prepared for any scenario.
One of the highlights was the Deadpool decoy school, where Zack and Travis showcased their advanced skills and strategies. This left our team inspired and eager to incorporate these new methods into our training routines. Additionally, Janet’s seminar was another standout, offering deep dives into specialized training techniques that captivated everyone in attendance.
Overall, this experience reinforced the importance of continuous training and collaboration. Consequently, we are grateful to Shawn, Janet, Zack, and Travis for their dedication and expertise. Their contributions have undoubtedly made a lasting impact on our training programs, and we look forward to future collaborations.

In this episode of our podcast, we tackle the often misunderstood topic of punishment in dog training. There’s been a lot of misinformation circulating, including the outrageous claim that balanced trainers hold positive punishment seminars. We want to set the record straight and explain how punishment, when used correctly, plays a vital role in teaching dogs to eliminate or reduce unwanted behaviors.
Punishment, in the context of dog training, is not about abuse or harsh methods. It’s about providing clear boundaries and consequences that help dogs understand which behaviors are undesirable. This clarity aids in creating a structured environment where dogs can thrive.
One of the key points we discuss is the difference between punishment and abuse. While punishment is a controlled, measured response to a specific behavior, abuse is harmful and unacceptable. Understanding this distinction is crucial for anyone involved in dog training.
Throughout the episode, we also delve into how punishment, when balanced with positive reinforcement, can be an effective tool. It’s about finding the right balance and ensuring that the well-being of the dog is always the priority.
Join us as we dispel myths and provide insights into the responsible use of punishment in dog training. Listen now to gain a better understanding and become a more informed trainer.

In our latest podcast episode, we tackle a critical topic: the peril of false knowledge. While ignorance poses risks, misinformation masquerading as truth can be far more dangerous.
Recently, a comment on social media claimed that men are more likely to attend positive punishment seminars than women. This statement is not only unfounded but also misleading. Throughout our extensive careers in the dog training industry, we have never encountered anyone running or hosting such seminars. Positive punishment, which involves adding an aversive consequence after an undesired behaviour, can be used in training but only under the right circumstances. It should assist the dog in learning how to avoid a behaviour, be used sparingly, and always with compassion.
Furthermore, we delve into the South Australian government’s proposed plan to ban IPG (International Working Dog trial) training. This proposal represents an outrageous example of government overreach. Such regulations not only undermine professional training methods but also spread misinformation about the nature and purpose of IPG. Effective dog training requires balanced, informed approaches that prioritise both the dog’s and the handler’s well-being.
Ignorance can lead to the spread of false knowledge, which can have detrimental effects. By staying informed and questioning dubious claims, we can combat ignorance and promote responsible training practices. Ignorance is a formidable foe, but with the right knowledge, we can overcome it. Join us as we debunk these myths and advocate for knowledge-based approaches. By listening to our podcast, you can stay informed and help combat the spread of false knowledge in the dog training community. Stay tuned, stay informed, and let’s work together to promote truth and excellence in our field.

In our latest podcast episode, we eagerly addressed key questions from our listeners about training dogs, particularly focusing on the importance of ‘warming’ when transitioning from indoor to outdoor environments. Our listeners are curious about how to maintain a strong connection with their dogs amidst a swag of new outdoor stimuli, and we were excited to delve into these challenges.
Firstly, warming your dog for a training session isn’t just about tiring them out; it’s about mentally preparing them for the shift in context from a calm indoor setting to a stimulating outdoor space. We emphasized starting with familiar commands like ‘sit’ and ‘look at me’ to help redirect your dog’s focus from distractions back to you. This approach not only primes them for learning but also reinforces your bond.
Furthermore, we discussed the value of a physical warm-up. A brisk walk or a playful fetch session can significantly reduce excess energy, thus improving your dog’s concentration. These activities should be seen not just as exercise, but as integral parts of your training routine that prepare your dog for the mental challenges ahead.
Ultimately, our discussion aimed to provide practical tips for our listeners, showing that with the right warming techniques, transitioning from indoor to outdoor training can be a smooth, effective process. Tune in to learn how these strategies can enhance your training sessions and deepen the connection with your dog.

We delved into the fascinating world of dog training, focusing on the suppression of behaviours, the concept of dogs “guessing” behaviours, and the powerful dynamics of perception between teacher and student. This discussion sheds light on how understanding and managing these elements can significantly enhance the training process and the relationship between dogs and their trainers.
Suppression of unwanted behaviours is a critical aspect of dog training. It involves identifying behaviours that may be problematic or dangerous and using effective training methods to reduce or eliminate them. However, it’s important to approach suppression with a strategy that promotes an understanding, rather than just punishment. This method not only fosters a safer environment but also strengthens the bond between the dog and the trainer.
Furthermore, the idea that dogs may “guess” behaviours highlights the need for clear and consistent communication during training sessions. Dogs often try to anticipate commands and may end up performing the wrong actions. Trainers must be patient and persistent in guiding their canine students, helping them to learn and respond appropriately without confusion.
The power of perception in the relationship between teacher and student cannot be overstated. The way a trainer perceives a dog’s behaviour and the dog’s perception of the trainer’s intentions both play crucial roles in the effectiveness of training. Understanding and adapting to each other’s signals and behaviours can lead to more successful outcomes and a more harmonious relationship.

In our newest podcast episode, we explore the integration of working dogs into households and address the misleading advice suggesting that these dogs disrupt home dynamics. Despite these myths, working dogs can enhance home life, especially when combined with the right remote training techniques. These methods, often misunderstood, can actually strengthen your bond with your working dog rather than hinder it..
A significant portion of our discussion also focuses on the controversial use of electric collars or remote trainers. This often brings to mind images of harsh control methods. However, our conversation sheds light on the lack of scientific evidence supporting the notion that these tools are inherently cruel. It’s crucial for dog owners to consider both the potential benefits and the proper usage of remote training devices to ensure they are used ethically and effectively.
Furthermore, we explore a rather peculiar behaviour—dogs eating their own faeces. While this may seem alarming to many pet owners, we provide insights into why this happens and how it can be managed. Understanding the root causes can help owners address this behaviour more sympathetically.

In our latest podcast episode, we dove into the fascinating world of canine behaviour, focusing on the concept of ‘play’ and its multifaceted role in the lives of our dog. Addressing two insightful listener requests, we explored the intricacies of reward placement and the nuanced differences between direct and indirect rewards, shedding light on how these elements can enhance the play experience and training efficacy for both working dogs and pets.
Further, we delved into the vital importance of play, not just as a leisure activity, but as a cornerstone of healthy development and emotional well-being for dogs. The discussion illuminated the stark contrasts between working dogs, who often engage in play as a form of job-related training, and pet dogs, whose playtime is more centred around bonding and recreational activities.
Understanding the role of play in a dog’s life is crucial for pet owners and trainers alike, offering insights into how play can be used as a tool for learning, bonding, and maintaining physical and mental health. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of their canine companions and make the most of their playtime together.

In the latest episode, we delve into the fascinating world of dog training, emphasising the pivotal role of understanding and harnessing different drives. Training dogs, whether for sporting events, police work, or simply as pets, requires a nuanced approach that recognises and adapts to the diverse motivations that drive canine behaviour.
Drives in dogs refer to innate impulses that guide their actions; these can include prey drive, play drive, defensive drive, and pack drive, among others. Recognising which drive is dominant in a particular situation allows trainers to employ specific strategies that resonate with the dog’s natural inclinations, leading to more effective and harmonious training sessions.
Switching drives is a crucial technique in this field, offering the flexibility to navigate between different motivations to achieve desired behaviours. For instance, transitioning from a prey drive to a play drive can help in teaching control and cooperation, essential in disciplines ranging from agility courses to obedience in high-stress environments.
This episode explores these concepts in depth, providing insights and practical advice for trainers and dog owners alike. Understanding drives not only enhances training efficiency but also fosters a deeper bond between dogs and their handlers, making it an indispensable skill in the world of canine training.

In our recent podcast, we explored the challenging situation encountered by LickiMat, a small, pet-friendly business, embroiled in a digital controversy. This enterprise, renowned for its pet care innovations, unexpectedly became the target of online backlash due to its collaboration with a balanced dog trainer at the prestigious Crufts event. This incident highlights the volatile nature of online communities and the swift impact of digital activism on businesses, particularly those in the pet industry.
The backlash against LickiMat was sparked by their decision to include a balanced dog trainer at their Crufts stand. While this decision was intended to demonstrate their commitment to pet welfare, it inadvertently led to significant online uproar. This reaction underscores the powerful influence of digital platforms in amplifying collective actions, especially when driven by emotional responses rather than informed discussions.
Furthermore, the incident with LickiMat serves as a stark reminder of the ‘cancel culture’ phenomenon prevalent in today’s digital age. This trend, where groups swiftly mobilise to boycott or condemn businesses or individuals, can have disproportionate effects, particularly on small enterprises. In the case of LickiMat, the intense scrutiny and criticism were not only overwhelming but also diverged from the principles of constructive dialogue and mutual understanding.
As businesses navigate the complex digital landscape, the LickiMat episode offers valuable lessons. It underscores the necessity for companies, especially in the pet sector, to exercise caution and strategic foresight in their digital engagements. Moreover, it highlights the importance of fostering open, respectful dialogues and prioritising empathy and transparency in all online interactions. In doing so, businesses can better manage and mitigate the risks associated with digital backlash, ensuring a more resilient and positive online presence.
Support Lickimat by buying a product and letting the company know that the bullies who are holding a gun to their heads don’t always get their way. https://lickimat.com/

In an engaging segment of our podcast, Pat and Glenn delved into a thought-provoking topic prompted by a simple yet profound question from Pat’s son, Rip. Rip had observed Remi, their family dog, being prepared for a dog trial and pondered, “If Remi is already trained, why does he still need training?” This query sparked an insightful discussion about the ongoing nature of canine training, highlighting the distinction between a dog “in training” and a “trained dog.”
Pat began by clarifying that a dog’s training is never truly complete; it’s an evolving process. He emphasised that a “trained dog” isn’t a static state but a continuous commitment to learning and adaptation. “Just as humans never stop learning, a trained dog, too, is always building on existing skills and acquiring new ones,” Pat explained. Thus, the concept of a trained dog involves regular practice and reinforcement to maintain and enhance their abilities.
Glenn further elaborated on using references to movies, guitars and random other gibberish to basic acknowledge the direction the conversation was already heading in.
The both highlighted the importance of understanding each dog’s unique personality and learning curve in the training process. They agreed that training a dog is as much about building a deep, communicative bond as it is about obedience and skills.

In the ever-evolving realm of dog training, the significance of a Training Director is magnified by their ability to foster meaningful conversations. These dialogues are not just exchanges of words but are the bedrock of a thriving learning environment where dog trainers and handlers can flourish. By engaging in insightful conversations, a Training Director bridges the gap between theory and practice, making the learning journey both enriching and practical.
Conversations led by a Training Director are instrumental in demystifying the complex language of canine behaviour. Through these discussions, trainers and handlers gain a deeper understanding, enabling them to apply their knowledge more effectively.

In our latest podcast episode, an off-the-cuff remark during the closing segment sparked an unexpected yet profound discussion. The phrase, casually mentioned, was not the main focus of our conversation but we find way to make interesting headings. l
A blog by Larry Krohn a week back led us to explore the contrasting approaches between sport dog trainers and pet owners when faced with challenges.
This casual comment prompted us to delve into how individuals find motivation and resilience in the face of adversity. Sport dog trainers, for instance, often find a way to push through obstacles, such as inclement weather, demonstrating a remarkable level of commitment. Their ability to find consistency in training, regardless of external factors, showcases the importance of perseverance in achieving goals.
Conversely, pet owners might find valid reasons to adjust their training schedules when faced with similar challenges. This flexibility in approach highlights a different kind of resilience, where one finds balance between commitment and adaptability.
The discussion allowed us to find valuable insights into how the mindset we adopt in response to challenges can significantly impact our journey, not just in dog training but in various aspects of life. It’s a reminder that sometimes, it’s the unexpected comments that find a way to resonate with us, offering new perspectives and understanding.

Being bitten by a dog can be an unexpectedly traumatic experience, leaving both physical and emotional scars. In workplaces, hobbies, and professions where interaction with dogs is common, understanding the risks and preventive measures is crucial.
The trauma of a dog bite extends beyond the immediate physical injury. Victims often experience heightened anxiety, fear of dogs, and even PTSD, affecting their ability to work or engage in activities they once enjoyed. The psychological impact can be profound, altering one’s sense of safety and well-being.
To mitigate these risks, implementing comprehensive strategies in environments where dogs are present is essential. This includes strict adherence to safety protocols, understanding dog behavior, and recognizing warning signs before an incident occurs.
Staff training plays a pivotal role in prevention. Educating employees on safe dog handling techniques can drastically reduce the likelihood of bites. Training should cover understanding dog body language, maintaining a calm and assertive demeanor, and knowing how to approach and interact with dogs safely.
Moreover, first aid training is indispensable. Quick and appropriate responses to a bite can prevent severe infections and promote faster healing, reducing the long-term impact of the injury.

In a recent episode of The Canine Paradigm, we were thrilled to have Tracy Racich join us for an enlightening discussion. This episode, intriguingly titled “Better at Polishing a Turd,” stems from a candid comment made by Tracy. The conversation was sparked by a post Tracy shared about a month ago, which caught our attention and led us to delve deeper into the subject on our show.
The focus of our discussion with Tracy was on the current state of dog training, highlighting both the commendable aspects and the areas that require improvement. Tracy’s insights are particularly valuable for newer trainers entering the industry, offering them guidance on how to navigate the complexities of dog training effectively.
One of the key points Tracy emphasised was the importance of not just “polishing” our skills but also recognising and addressing the underlying issues in dog training practices. This metaphor of “polishing a turd” serves as a powerful reminder that superficial improvements are not enough; we must strive for genuine progress and development in our training methodologies.
For those new to the field, understanding the balance between polishing existing techniques and innovating new approaches is crucial. Tracy’s perspective sheds light on the need for continuous learning and adaptation in dog training, ensuring that we provide the best possible guidance and support to the dogs in our care.
As we reflect on our conversation with Tracy, it’s clear that the path to becoming a better dog trainer involves more than just polishing our skills. It requires a deep commitment to understanding the nuances of canine behaviour and a willingness to embrace change and improvement in our practices.

In a recent episode, we were joined Matthias Lenz, a distinguished source in the dog training community. His evolution from a simple dog walker to a training director for puppies aiding the visually impaired is remarkably inspiring. Matthias joined us to address a critical issue within the dog training community: the division between the +R (positive reinforcement) and balanced training methodologies. His unique viewpoint highlights the urgent need for unity and understanding in this specialized field.Matthias's journey serves as a significant source of knowledge about the dog training community's internal conflicts. He voiced concerns regarding the escalating divide between the +R and balanced training factions. The +R community, proponents of positive reinforcement techniques, often hesitates to recognise the benefits of balanced training methods. Matthias points out that this discord impedes the development of a more holistic and effective dog training approach.Matthias underscores the necessity of open-mindedness within the dog training community. He contends that both +R and balanced trainers possess valuable insights. Nevertheless, the +R community's reluctance to collaborate with balanced trainers creates a formidable obstacle. This mindset restricts the flow of ideas and techniques that could advantageously serve both dogs and their trainers.Matthias's advocacy for a unified approach in dog training is a vital step towards fostering a more inclusive and efficient environment. Recognising the strengths of both +R and balanced training methods can lead to the development of more versatile and adaptable training strategies. It's essential for the dog training community to unite, share knowledge, and strive towards the shared goal of enhancing the lives of dogsFurther detailslooking for great dog trainers and supporters of the canine paradigm?

In a thought-provoking discussion within our Ethics in Dog Training group, Tracy Racich brought forward an essential topic: the ethical landscape in dog training. Tracy's insights delve into the varying skill levels of trainers and the ethical responsibilities that accompany them.Tracy raises a critical point about the ethical dilemmas faced by trainers who overestimate their skills. The issue, as noted, isn't with less experienced trainers working in the field. Instead, it's when these individuals fail to recognize their limitations. Tracy emphasizes that ethical breaches occur when trainers, regardless of their experience, charge high fees for inconsistent results, often shifting blame onto clients.Another concern highlighted by Tracy is the handling of complex cases by under qualified trainers. Tracy advocates for the importance of recognizing one's limits and the value of referring challenging cases to more experienced professionals. This approach, Tracy suggests, is not only an ethical practice but also a pathway for professional development.Tracy also underscores the importance of continuous learning in the field of dog training. According to Tracy, acknowledging one's current skill level and aspiring to improve is key to maintaining ethical standards in the industry. Tracy's vision is for a community where knowledge sharing and mentorship are encouraged, facilitating the growth of all trainers.Tracy Racich's contributions to our group discussion serve as a reminder of the importance of ethics in dog training. Recognizing our limitations and committing to ongoing education are crucial steps in upholding the professional integrity that Tracy so rightly advocates.Further detailslooking for great dog trainers and supporters of the canine paradigm?

In our latest episode, we had the enlightening opportunity to converse with Dr. Melanie Uhde from Canine Decoded, delving into the intricate world of canine behaviour and the pivotal role of the brain in maintaining homeostasis. Dr. Uhde illuminated the often misunderstood realm of punishment and rewards in training, emphasising the brain's fundamental need for balance and stability.Homeostasis, the brain's method of maintaining a stable internal environment, is crucial for the overall health and behaviour of dogs. Dr. Uhde explained that disruptions in the brain's homeostasis can lead to behavioural issues, making understanding this balance essential for effective training and development. The brain constantly seeks equilibrium, and understanding this can significantly alter our approach to training.Dr. Uhde's insights shed light on how the brain's quest for homeostasis influences a dog's response to various training techniques. She stressed that maintaining the brain's balance not only fosters a healthier learning environment but also promotes a stronger, more trusting bond between the dog and the trainer.By the end of our conversation, it was clear that the brain's role in behaviour and training is profound. Dr. Uhde's expertise offered a fresh perspective on the importance of considering the brain's need for homeostasis in our training approaches, providing relief and guidance to those navigating the complex world of canine behaviour.Further detailslooking for great dog trainers and supporters of the canine paradigm?

As the year draws to a close, we're excited to present our end-of-year podcast, "The Rising Tide Lifts All the Boats." This episode is not just a reflection on the past year but a heartfelt message of gratitude and inspiration. We've seen that when we focus on self-improvement and foster kindness, just like boats in a rising tide, we all lift together.Throughout this year, our community of listeners has been the wind in our sails, guiding us through both calm and turbulent waters. Your support has been a beacon of encouragement, and for that, we extend a warm, heartfelt thank you. As we discuss in this special episode, the metaphor of boats rising together encapsulates our vision for a world where bettering oneself inherently betters others. It's about moving away from self-sabotage and the sabotage of others, and instead, steering towards a horizon of collective upliftment.This Christmas, as we reflect on the year gone by and anticipate the new one, let's continue to be the tide that raises all boats. Let's commit to being kinder, to pushing ourselves and each other towards greatness, and to creating a community where everyone rises together. Here's to a new year of lifting each other up, just as boats rise together on a rising tide. Thank you for being an integral part of our journey.Further detailslooking for great dog trainers and supporters of the canine paradigm?

Embarking on the journey to become a dog trainer is both exhilarating and demanding. It's a path that requires dedication, patience, and a deep understanding of canine behaviour. For those starting from scratch, the road to becoming a proficient trainer and eventually leading seminars and teaching solo is filled with learning and growth.Initially, the focus should be on foundational knowledge. This includes understanding dog psychology, behaviour, and learning theory. Aspiring trainers should immerse themselves in books, online courses, and workshops to build a solid theoretical base. Simultaneously, hands-on experience is crucial. Volunteering at shelters or working under experienced trainers provides invaluable practical insights and skills.As competence grows, the next phase involves specialisation. Whether it's obedience training, agility, or behaviour modification, finding a niche not only enhances expertise but also sets a trainer apart. During this stage, it's beneficial to attain certifications from recognised dog training organisations, which lend credibility and confidence.The transition to teaching and conducting seminars should be gradual. Initially, co-teaching with seasoned professionals can bridge the gap between learning and leading. This phase is crucial for developing teaching methodologies and understanding group dynamics.The hallmark of readiness to stand alone as a trainer and educator is a blend of confidence, experience, and continuous learning. It's not just about years in the field, but the depth of understanding and the ability to effectively communicate and empathise with both dogs and their owners. When a trainer feels confident in their skills and starts receiving positive feedback from clients and peers, it's a strong indicator that they're ready to take the lead.Further detailslooking for great dog trainers and supporters of the canine paradigm?

Decoys, in particular, are the unsung heroes in sports like, PSA, Schutzhund, French Ring, or Mondioring, where they engage dogs in exercises that could potentially lead to injury. These skilled individuals don't just wear a bite suit and endure the physicality of a dog's engagement; they are artists of canine communication, understanding the subtle language of dogs to a degree that allows them to anticipate and react in ways that protect both the animal and themselves, ensuring a safe training experience.Their role is not merely about being a target; it's about being a partner in the dog's safe training journey. They help in honing a dog's skills, ensuring that the dog's natural drives are channelled in a safe and constructive manner. This requires a deep understanding of canine behaviour, impeccable timing, and a profound respect for the animals they work with, all contributing to a safe training environment.Trainers, on the other hand, are the strategists behind this intricate dance, with a focus on safety. Their knowledge in animal behaviour, training methodologies, and injury prevention is critical. They design training programs that challenge the dogs yet keep them within the bounds of safety. Their ability to read a dog's physical and mental limits is essential in maintaining a safe training regime and preventing overtraining and stress, which can lead to injuries.Together, decoys and trainers create a synergy that allows our dogs to engage in these sports with vigour and enthusiasm, while significantly reducing the risk of harm. Their skill and knowledge are the bedrock upon which the safety of our beloved canine athletes rests. As we cheer for the impressive performances of our dogs, let's also take a moment to appreciate these dedicated professionals who make it all possible, ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience for all involved.Further detailslooking for great dog trainers and supporters of the canine paradigm?

In the heart of our communities, dogs hold a special place, not just as pets but as embodiments of love and connection. This was profoundly evident in the story of Kim Grace, owner of Grey Gums Cafe on Putty Road, and her beloved rescue dog, Shilo.Shilo was more than a pet to Kim; he was a symbol of enduring love and companionship. After the passing of her husband, John, Shilo came into Kim's life, offering comfort and a sense of presence that was deeply needed. Named after the Neil Diamond song "Shilo," a favorite of John's and poignantly played at his service, this dog represented a bridge between past memories and present healing.The impact of Shilo on Kim, and by extension on the community that frequents Grey Gums Cafe, was profound. Dogs, like Shilo, have an innate ability to bring people together, offering unconditional love and a listening ear, without judgement or expectation. They become part of our stories, our families, and our hearts.Sadly, Kim recently faced the loss of Shilo, a moment that reminds us of the precious, albeit sometimes brief, time we have with these remarkable creatures. Shilo's legacy, however, continues. It's in the way the community rallies in support, in the shared stories over coffee, and in the understanding that love, like Shilo's, leaves an indelible mark.As we remember Shilo, let's celebrate the power and love that community dogs bring into our lives. They are not just pets; they are friends, healers, and irreplaceable companions on our life's journey.Further detailslooking for great dog trainers and supporters of the canine paradigm?

Samantha King, a dog trainer and psychologist at Therapy Dogs Australia, challenges industry norms by advocating for a practical, role-specific approach to working dog training, contrasting with the generalised recommendations often made by her industry member organisation.Working dogs play crucial roles, such as in search and rescue, police work, or providing assistance to individuals with disabilities. These tasks require a unique blend of intelligence, physical abilities, and sensitivity. The bond between dog and handler is integral to the success of the mission.However, a one-size-fits-all training approach is inadequate. Customised training programmes are crucial for maximising the dog's potential and effectiveness in its role. Samantha's work aims to highlight the need for a more realistic and practical training approach.Samantha's frustration stems from the industry member body's failure to recognise the unique challenges and requirements of each specific role that working dogs are placed in. Their lack of flexibility and adaptability in their recommendations can hinder the dog's performance and, ultimately, the success of the mission.As we continue to explore innovative approaches in the field of working dogs, it's evident that customised and realistic training programmes are vital. Working dogs have the potential to make a significant impact in various professional settings, but this is only possible if we allow them the opportunity to reach their full potential through the right training and support.Further detailslooking for great dog trainers and supporters of the canine paradigm?

When we think of psychology, often we imagine a traditional therapy session in an office setting. However, Samantha King, a psychologist from Therapy Dogs Australia, is breaking the mold by incorporating canines into her sessions. This innovative approach, known as psychology assisted by canines, utilizes the unique bond between humans and dogs to facilitate healing and growth, especially in young children with a range of needs.Canines have an extraordinary ability to connect with humans, providing comfort and support that is often unparalleled. In a psychological setting, the presence of a dog can act as a catalyst for building rapport between the psychologist and the child. The non-judgmental and unconditional love offered by canines can create a safe and nurturing environment, promoting openness and vulnerability, which are essential for any successful therapeutic intervention.In psychology, the importance of a strong therapist-client relationship cannot be overstated. Incorporating canines into the session can significantly enhance this relationship, ultimately leading to more effective outcomes. The intuitive nature of dogs allows them to sense emotions and respond accordingly, providing an additional layer of support and understanding that can be truly transformative.Samantha King’s work with Therapy Dogs Australia is a testament to the power and potential of psychology when combined with the healing presence of canines. As we continue to explore and embrace innovative approaches in psychology, the possibilities for healing and growth are boundless.Further detailslooking for great dog trainers and supporters of the canine paradigm?

Prey locking in dogs is a natural instinct deeply rooted in their ancestral heritage as hunters. When a dog locks onto an object, it means they've spotted something of interest, whether it's a squirrel, a ball, or even a moving vehicle. This behaviour is characterised by intense focus and a stiffened posture. However, it can be a source of frustration for both owners and trainers alike.Owners may find prey locking frustrating for several reasons. Firstly, it can make walking your dog a challenge as they might suddenly fixate on a target, leading to tugging and pulling on the lead. This not only causes discomfort for the owner but also poses a danger if the dog lunges towards traffic or other hazards. Additionally, redirecting a locked-in dog's attention can be quite challenging, especially if they are determined to chase their prey.Trainers, too, encounter difficulties when addressing prey locking. Teaching a dog to break their focus and respond to commands in such a heightened state of arousal can be time-consuming and demanding. It necessitates patience, consistent training, and the use of various techniques to redirect their attention towards more desirable behaviours.To better manage this instinctual response, it's important to understand that prey locking is a natural canine behaviour. Employing training methods that encourage impulse control and redirection can be highly beneficial for both owners and trainers, enabling dogs to enjoy their environment without causing frustration or safety concerns.Further detailslooking for great dog trainers and supporters of the canine paradigm?

Jealousy and envy, often used interchangeably, have distinct meanings. Jealousy is the fear of losing something we possess to someone else, while envy involves desiring something someone else has. Both emotions aren't limited to just humans. Our canine companions, too, show signs that could be interpreted as jealousy.For humans, jealousy can arise from intricate emotional scenarios, such as witnessing a loved one grow closer to someone else or professional setbacks. In dogs, the manifestations are more direct: a pet owner showering affection on another pet often leads to those unmistakable whines and nudges.However, it's worth delving deeper into canine "jealousy." Research from the University of California, San Diego, indicates that dogs might display behaviors reminiscent of jealousy when they perceive unequal treatment. Dogs, when observing their owners being affectionate toward what seemed like another pet (though it was a stuffed toy), exhibited nudges and pushes, more so than when the owner engaged with a non-social item.Yet, an alternative perspective suggests that what we label as "jealousy" in dogs might be closer to "resource guarding." Dogs, having evolved as pack animals, naturally protect scarce resources. This protective behaviour over toys, food, or even their human, could stem from a primal instinct to guard essential resources rather than from an emotional response akin to human jealousy.Humans often anthropomorphise animal behaviours, and while it might feel right to label a dog's desire for attention as "jealousy," it could just be a straightforward request for affection or the act of guarding a "resource."The dynamics between cerebral human emotions and the possibly instinctual responses of dogs is fascinating. As our discussion ranged from cultural interpretations to light-hearted anecdotes and even the portrayal of jealousy in art, one clear takeaway emerged: understanding and appropriately addressing these emotions and behaviours, whether in humans or dogs, is essential for nurturing harmonious relationships.Further detailslooking for great dog trainers and supporters of the canine paradigm?

From the bustling streets of the UK to the vast expanses of Australia, a storm is brewing that threatens to redefine the very core of dog training. XL Bullies, once pridefully paraded across parks in Britain, now face potential bans. Meanwhile, Down Under, Rottweilers, despite their loyal and loving nature, find themselves splashed across headlines, painting them in a less than flattering light. Why this sudden breed-specific attention?But, the plot thickens. The Australian Parliament, under the influence of left-wing political parties, is alight with fervent debates that extend beyond breed biases. They are launching yet another campaign against specific dog training tools, seeking to ban bite sports and aiming to introduce even more stringent restrictions on canine training methodologies.These actions aren't just administrative red tape; they are tugs at the very heartstrings of dog lovers and trainers. Every ban, every headline, and every parliamentary debate forces us to re-evaluate and adapt our approach. But at what cost? As we navigate these turbulent times, the overarching question remains: How will these breed battles and political pressures reshape the landscape of dog training, and more importantly, our relationship with our furry friends?Further detailslooking for great dog trainers and supporters of the canine paradigm?

After the rousing discussion sparked by our previous episode, "Things Dog Trainers Hate to Hear," it's clear that the conversation between pet owners and dog trainers is far more nuanced than can be captured by a list of frustrating phrases. The topic was so well-received that we decided to take it a step further in our newest podcast episode, where we delve into how the dynamic between pet owners and trainers is evolving in contemporary society.Social media platforms, with their host of cute dog videos and quick 'tips and tricks,' can both help and hinder the pet owner-trainer relationship. On the one hand, they serve as platforms for trainers to share valuable insights and for pet owners to learn and share. On the other, they can perpetuate harmful myths and encourage unprofessional training techniques, creating a host of challenges for certified trainers to untangle later on.As we've discussed in our latest podcast episode, the relationship between pet owners and dog trainers is constantly evolving. Through this evolution, it's important to go beyond debunking frustrating phrases or myths and instead focus on the new ways that training methods and pet owner expectations are adapting to the changing landscape. Through understanding these shifts, we can better facilitate a rewarding experience for both dogs and their humans.Further detailslooking for great dog trainers and supporters of the canine paradigm?

A recent Facebook post ignited a fascinating discussion around the relationship between pet owners and dog trainers. The user asked friends to share things that dog trainers hate to hear. Not surprisingly, the thread garnered over 200 comments, full of humour and earnest concerns alike. We found the conversation so compelling that we even discussed it in our most recent podcast episode.
Initially, one phrase that dog trainers often hate to hear is, "I've tried everything." This comment perpetuates a myth that undermines the essence of dog training. Experts in the field hate hearing this because it not only misguides pet owners into believing there's no answers.
Secondly, a sentiment that dog trainers equally hate is, "Isn't he too old to be trained?" This notion incorrectly implies that age is an insurmountable barrier to learning new tricks or behaviours. Dog trainers hate this misconception because it leads many pet owners to miss out on an opportunity for improvement, which is often entirely possible regardless of a dog's age.
Furthermore, on the lighter side of things, a phrase that dog trainers also hate but find amusing is, "My dog doesn't need training; he's just 'free-spirited'." While this comment elicits chuckles, dog trainers hate that it minimizes the value of their work. A 'free-spirited' dog might seem cute, but lack of training can compromise both the dog's and owner's well-being.
In conclusion, the thread wasn’t just a source of entertainment; it was a treasure trove of insights into the myths and stereotypes that dog trainers hate encountering. These professionals aren’t merely 'canine whisperers'; they serve as vital educators who strive to improve the relationship between humans and their pets.

Undoubtedly, the very essence of dog training is encapsulated in a single, albeit often elusive, concept: the moment. Interestingly, this pivotal lesson came into sharp focus for many of us while sharing space with the incomparable Michael Ellis. A master in his field, Michael exemplifies the art of being fully "in the moment." When you find yourself fortunate enough to be immersed in his dynamic presence, you can’t help but feel the magnetic allure of present awareness. Importantly, this is not merely a tactical approach, but rather, it evolves into a deeply-lived philosophy.
Further emphasising this, being fully present transcends being just a training technique; it emerges as a transformative dogma that enriches the lives of dogs, trainers, and clients alike.
During training sessions with Michael, you quickly observes a crucial distinction: he’s not simply instructing the human or the dog. Instead, he is communicating, connecting, and deeply understanding on an impressively intuitive level.
This potent engagement with the present moment empowers him to discern even the most subtle cues in a dog's behaviour.
Having the week with Michael and our good friend Alex Edwards has been an incredible moment which way beyond us has been grateful for.

Sorting through life's chaos is akin to training an unpredictable dog; both require mastery over the when, why, and how.
When: Just as we sort our life decisions at opportune moments, we must also discern when to guide our dogs. Proper timing in both ensures success.
Why: Understanding our motivations and those of our dogs is key. Is your dog's barking due to anxiety, boredom, or health? Similarly, sorting the reasons behind our feelings adds depth to our growth.
How: Our strategies in life, like in dog training, need personalisation. A one-size-fits-all approach doesn't always work.
In essence, sorting our way through life and dog training is more than exerting control. It's about mutual growth, understanding, and patience. Our dogs serve not just as pets but as teachers, urging us to be present, adaptable, and curious.Check out this episode where we asked, 'Where are we going'?

Glenn, Pat, and Cameron Ford came together to take a hard look at the existing 'system' that governs many dog training practices. This meeting ignited an important discussion, probing into long-standing practices that have become ubiquitous within the industry. We raised concerns over the rigid thinking that is prevalent in the field. This often manifests as a cult-like dedication to a single methodology, stunting the growth of new ideas and innovation.
Our conversation highlighted how this narrow-minded approach creates an environment where trainers aggressively defend their chosen 'system', often to the detriment of their professional development. In an act akin to religious fervour, these individuals quickly reject or even openly attack novel ideas and methodologies. Such behaviour creates an unfriendly atmosphere that prevents the adoption of emerging research and innovative techniques that could potentially revolutionize dog training practices.
Against this backdrop, we proposed a solution rooted in openness and flexibility. Rather than clinging tightly to one specific approach, we suggest trainers should continually seek knowledge from a wide array of methods. By promoting a culture of open dialogue and intellectual curiosity, we believe an efficient, multifaceted 'system' could emerge in dog training.
Furthermore, we emphasised the need to challenge and reassess the industry's deeply entrenched beliefs. They argued that a 'system' should be adaptable and dynamic, capable of evolving with new discoveries in animal behaviour and learning. For the field to truly progress, we all stressed the importance of breaking free from the rigid constraints of some existing methods to embrace a more holistic understanding of dog training.

Our beloved friend and regular contributor,
Dog training is a blend of art and science, utilising various techniques to shape desired behaviours. One such method is negative reinforcement, encapsulated nicely in the phrase, "pressure motivates, release educates."
Negative reinforcement is often misunderstood. It doesn't involve harm or punishment but utilises slight discomfort to stimulate behaviour change. In dog training, 'pressure' refers to the minimal discomfort that motivates the dog to behave differently. This could be a firm tug on the lead or a stern voice command, encouraging the dog to respond to a certain cue.
The 'release' part, equally crucial, involves removing the 'pressure' as soon as the dog exhibits the desired behaviour. The release is where the true learning occurs. It's the dog's 'Aha!' moment, realising that complying with the command will eliminate the discomfort. This ebb and flow of pressure and release helps form associations and adjust behaviours, proving to be a powerful tool in any dog trainer's arsenal.
In essence, the 'pressure motivates, release educates' mantra underscores the art of teaching dogs using negative reinforcement. It's about fostering a learning environment that drives behavioural change, proving that even pressure, when properly applied, can result in a well-trained, happier dog.

Nothing beats a hearty chat with Jason Firmin, the main man at Eizweck Dogquip, and his son Ryan, especially after their whirlwind European tour. Now, this wasn't your typical sightseeing trip. Nope, the Firmins had a mission - to immerse Ryan into the exciting world of dog sports decoy.
Europe's got some seriously talented decoys, and it was in this lively backdrop that Ryan received his crash course. Jason couldn't stop beaming as he spoke of his son's meteoric rise in the decoy scene.
Ryan was all grins, too, as he regaled us with tales of training alongside Europe's decoy cream of the crop. His eyes sparkled as he recounted his 'unparalleled' experience, a real game-changer for his decoy journey.
Now, we're a cheeky lot, so the chat wasn't all shop talk. We found time for a bit of a laugh, ribbing each other and adding a dash of fun to our dog sports discourse. Let's just say, we know how to balance the serious with the downright silly!
Their European sojourn has undoubtedly injected a fresh dose of enthusiasm for dog sports and decoy in particular. The Firmins' story is a delightful reminder of how a spirited approach to learning (and a pinch of mischief) can create unforgettable experiences. Here's to more decoy escapades with Ryan on the frontline!
we've had other episode about decoys here in Episode 197

In Australia, introducing a four-legged friend to the work site has unlocked a unique charm and improved productivity. In an environment often characterized by stress and deadlines, a tail-wagging canine offers a magical and unanticipated boost.
The presence of a dog at a work site serves as a powerful stress reliever. Their capacity to provide unconditional love, coupled with their humorous antics, tends to lighten the work atmosphere, fostering a more relaxed, happier, and ultimately more productive workforce.
Not just confined to offices, dogs are becoming common in construction sites, mines, and farms across Australia. Despite the challenging conditions, these loyal companions display remarkable adaptability. Their presence creates an emotional anchor, promoting camaraderie and a sense of team cohesion, essential in such settings.
Interestingly, dogs also contribute to safety. They're highly perceptive, often alerting their human colleagues to dangers unseen or unheard. This remarkable canine trait adds an unexpected layer of protection in these environments.
Incorporating dogs into work sites across Australia is undeniably magical. It breaks down barriers, fosters emotional well-being, and enhances productivity. And at the end of the day, who doesn't enjoy a friendly bark or a wagging tail to lighten up their day?
What do you want to do with your dog?

"Punished by Rewards" by Alfie Kohn delves into the concept of intrinsic motivation, suggesting that rewards can actually be counter-productive, undermining our inherent drive to learn and explore. While primarily focused on humans, this compelling theory has implications for dog training.
Traditionally, reward-based training has been a staple in teaching our canine companions. But should we be wary of over-relying on treats and praise? This question leads us back to the concept of intrinsic motivation. It's undeniable that dogs possess inherent drives, such as the drive to explore their environment or to play. These intrinsic drives can and should be harnessed in training.
Shifting our focus to nurturing these natural instincts, rather than overwhelming our dogs with extrinsic rewards, could result in a more engaging and satisfying learning experience. This approach encourages dogs to participate not just for the promise of a treat but due to an intrinsic desire to engage, learn, and please.
"Punished by Rewards" nudges us to reconsider the balance between extrinsic rewards and intrinsic motivation in dog training. By placing emphasis on the latter, we can tap into our dogs' natural instincts, leading to more effective and enriching training outcomes.

In this fascinating episode, we delve deeper into the dynamic world of dog clubs, sharing our rich experiences that encompass managing, operating, and engaging with the colourful tapestry of individuals who breathe life into these clubs. We bring to light both the inspiring stories of those who make the journey truly rewarding, as well as the challenging experiences that test our resilience and passion.
As we continue, we explore an intriguing aspect of dog training: sign tracking. This behavioural phenomenon, when understood and leveraged correctly, can significantly enrich your training approach. However, a lack of awareness about sign tracking can inadvertently lead to complications. For instance, dogs might develop an unintended fixation on a bag of treats rather than the commands, causing potential distractions during training sessions. On the flip side, harnessing the power of sign tracking can expedite and solidify the learning process by associating additional cues with rewards, thereby strengthening the dog's conditioned response.
Lastly, we lighten the mood with an engaging conversation about teaching and learning within the esteemed domain of dog training. Join us as we navigate the captivating landscape of imparting and acquiring knowledge, yet again reaffirming our dedication to the fascinating industry of dog training.

Bull breeds, children and best case versus Armageddon are once again the topics of discussion that came from surveys within our on-line discussion group.
Bull breeds are well-known for their strength, stamina, and loyalty, but their reputation often suffers due to negative portrayals in the media. However, in a loving environment, breeds like the Staffordshire Bull Terrier and the American Pit Bull Terrier can be fantastic family pets, particularly when socialised with children early and properly.
Children’s behaviour plays a pivotal role in this dynamic. It’s essential to teach them to respect dogs’ boundaries, avoiding aggressive or rough play. In the ideal scenario, a respectful, loving relationship is established, reinforcing positive behaviours both in children and dogs.
To conclude, we were asked about best case scenarios in the dog industry versus all out Armageddon.

Dog training is a journey, underscored by significant transitions through distinct learning phases, each showcasing your dog’s growth and understanding.
Initially, in the Introduction and teaching phase, your dog doesn’t understand the expected behaviour. However, as they begin to recognise the task or command, they naturally transition into the Learning and Association phase. This shift becomes noticeable as your dog starts associating your command with the corresponding action, albeit inconsistently. For example, when you say “sit,” they might occasionally comply.
Gradually, your dog moves into the Refinement and Consistency stage, which is another crucial transition. Here, your dog’s understanding deepens, characterised by improved accuracy and more consistent responses. Now, when you say “sit,” they will more frequently and correctly respond to your command, indicating a clear grasp of the association between the command and the action.
Finally, the most rewarding transition occurs, leading your dog into the Proofing phase. At this point, your dog instinctively responds to your command, indicating that it has become second nature. When you say “sit,” they immediately and correctly respond, regardless of the environment or distractions, signalling a successful transition to mastery.
These transitions form the crux of dog training. Your patience, understanding, and consistent reinforcement will guide these transitions, facilitating your dog’s progression from one phase to the next. Recognising and appreciating these subtle shifts can significantly enhance your effectiveness as a trainer and deepen the bond with your dog.
And of course, we took a bee line into other territories of punishment and other topics that people avoid as it doesn’t appease their audience.

In Part 2 of our conversation with Chad Mackin, we delve deeper into the nuances of dog training methodologies and the role of language in shaping the industry’s future. We discuss the significance of continued education for dog trainers and ways to stay informed and up-to-date in this ever-evolving field, where language plays a crucial part.
Chad shares his experiences with various dog training tools and the importance of using them responsibly and ethically. He also touches on how social media caused some concerns for him and how he managed that for himself, emphasising the role of language in addressing these issues.
We also explore the role of collaboration and mentorship within the dog training community, as Chad highlights the value of learning from one another and fostering a supportive environment for growth and development. Language plays a key role in facilitating this process. Pat and Glenn weigh in on the discussion, sharing their thoughts on the importance of a strong network of like-minded trainers who prioritise animal welfare and ethical practices, all whilst being mindful of the language used in the industry.
We did an earlier podcast called language is important

In our latest episode, we welcome back Chad Mackin to join us for an insightful discussion on the dog training industry. The conversation focused on Chad’s experiences, concerns, and aspirations for the world of dog training, emphasising the importance of better language in the industry.
Chad expressed his concerns about the widespread issue of substandard dog training practices being shared on social media platforms such as, Facebook. He highlighted how these methods not only affect the welfare of dogs and their owners but also have a significant impact on his own state of mind. In a world where poorly executed techniques are often celebrated, we aim to be a change for the industry through better language and practices.
To tackle these challenges, Chad has dedicated himself to developing and promoting better lead pressure training models. These models focus on a more effective, compassionate, and ethically sound approach to dog training whilst maintaining a high standard of care for our canine companions. Pat and Glenn chimed in during the discussion, reiterating the importance of refining industry language to foster better communication and understanding amongst trainers and pet owners.

Have you ever talked to your pets as if they were human beings? If you have, you might have been accused of being anthropomorphic. Anthropomorphism is the attribution of human characteristics, emotions, and behaviours to non-human entities such as animals, objects, or even natural phenomena.
Recently, Pat asked Glenn if he was being anthropomorphic when he was observing behaviours from his dogs, Remco and Valerie.
While dogs do feel emotions like joy and fear, they might not necessarily express them in the same way as humans. Dogs might wag their tails when they’re happy, but they might also wag their tails when they’re nervous or excited. It’s important to understand and respect the way that animals communicate.
However, that doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t talk to our pets or treat them with kindness and respect. Building a strong bond with our pets requires communication and empathy. It’s important to observe and understand their behaviours and needs, and to respond to them appropriately. Whether or not we’re being anthropomorphic, it’s always a good idea to treat our pets like valued members of our family.

When it comes to dogs participating in bite sports, developing their grip strength and technique is a crucial aspect of their training. Proper grip development through good techniques in tug and rag work can help improve a dog’s performance, prevent injuries, and increase their confidence and drive.
In bite sports, such as PSA, Schutzhund, IPO, and French Ring, dogs are trained to bite and hold onto various objects, including sleeves, bite suits, and hidden sleeves. To prepare them for these tasks, trainers use tug and rag work to help develop their grip strength, proper bite technique, and overall confidence.
It’s important to use appropriate equipment when engaging in tug and rag work with a dog training for bite sports. Specifically designed bite tugs and rag toys that mimic the texture and feel of the equipment used in bite sports should be used. This helps the dog learn how to properly grip and hold onto the equipment, while also protecting their teeth from damage.
Proper technique during tug and rag work is also essential for developing a dog’s grip strength and technique. Trainers should let the dog win and avoid forcefully taking the toy away, as this can create negative associations with biting and decrease the dog’s drive. Varying the types of games and toys used in training can also help develop a well-rounded grip.
This recent episode got some great feedback about development too

we had the pleasure of hosting Luke and Panos from the “Life with Your Dog” podcast. They joined us to discuss Joel Turner’s open and closed loop training system, as well as other dog training philosophies.
The conversation was both insightful and engaging. We delved deep into the open and closed loop training system. By using the open and closed loop training system, the Shot IQ system helps archers develop a deeper understanding of their shooting technique and build mental and physical skills. The open loop stage emphasises preparation, visualisation, and clear communication between the trainer and subject. The closed loop stage emphasises observation, evaluation, and adjustment based on feedback.
We also explored other training techniques, such as the importance of understanding a dog’s individual needs and tailoring training techniques accordingly.
Throughout the episode, Luke and Panos provided valuable insights and shared personal anecdotes about their experiences and life with your dog. They also highlighted the importance of patience and consistency when it comes to training a dog.

In this episode, we explore the topic of seeing your dog in a new light after they display unexpected aggressive or concerning behaviour. As dog owners, we often assume that we know our pets inside out and understand their behaviour patterns. However, sometimes our dogs can surprise us and exhibit behaviour that we don’t expect or fully understand.
When a dog displays aggressive behaviour, it can be a jarring experience for their owners. Suddenly, the dog that we have loved and cared for can seem like a completely different animal. But it’s important to remember that aggression in dogs is not uncommon and can be caused by a variety of factors, such as fear, anxiety, or a medical condition.
One of the keys to dealing with aggressive behaviour in dogs is to understand what triggers it. By identifying the root cause of the behaviour, dog owners can take steps to address the issue and work towards a solution. It’s also essential to seek the help of a professional canine trainer or behaviourist to guide you through the process.
Seeing your dog in a new light can be a challenging experience, but it can also be an opportunity for growth and understanding. By working with your pet and seeking professional help, you can build a stronger bond with your mate and help them overcome any behavioural issues they may be facing.
We also did this old chestnut a while back on the shameful social media players and how they make you see their spam and rubbish

Dog owners often unwittingly trigger certain behaviours in their pets, without realising the implications of their actions. While the owners may not understand what they did, the dog’s perception of the situation is entirely different. Due to the data it has collected, the dog’s brain sees this as a cue to run a particular program.
This phenomenon is not uncommon, and it’s a result of a dog’s ability to learn and adapt to its environment. Dogs are highly intelligent animals, and they have an exceptional sense of awareness, which they use to process the data they receive from their surroundings. This data includes everything from sounds and smells to body language and subtle cues from their owners.
Dog owners who don’t understand this can unwittingly trigger certain behaviours in their pets. For example, a dog may learn to associate a particular sound with a particular behaviour. Suppose an owner regularly uses a specific sound or word when it’s time to eat. In that case, the dog may start to associate that sound with food and run to the kitchen, anticipating its next meal.
In both cases, the dog has learned to run a specific program based on the data it has received from its environment. However, the owner may not even be aware of the cues they are giving their pet. This lack of understanding can lead to frustration on both sides, with the owner wondering why their dog behaves in a certain way and the dog feeling confused and uncertain.
To avoid this problem, it’s essential for dog owners to understand how their actions and cues can influence their pet’s behaviour.
Here’s another episode we did a while back called, you really don’t understand dogs at all

As much as we all love our canine companions, sometimes behavioural issues arise that can make life with them difficult and even dangerous. In some cases, these issues can be so severe that they pose a threat to not only the safety of others but to the dog itself. In such situations, the difficult decision to consider euthanasia may arise.
It’s important to note that behavioural euthanasia should always be a last resort, and only considered after all other options have been exhausted. This includes seeking the help of a professional dog trainer or behaviourist, and exploring any potential medical issues that may be contributing to the dog’s behaviour.
However, in some cases, the risks associated with a dog’s behaviour may simply be too great to manage safely, and euthanasia may be the most humane option.
For many dog owners, the decision to euthanize a beloved pet is a heart-wrenching one. It can be particularly traumatic when the decision is based on behavioural issues rather than physical health problems. Owners may feel a sense of guilt, grief, and loss, and may struggle to come to terms with the decision.
It’s important for owners to seek support during this difficult time. This may include talking to a trusted friend or family member, seeking the help of a therapist or counsellor, or joining a support group for pet owners who have gone through similar experiences.
It’s also important to remember that the decision to euthanize a dangerous dog is not a reflection of the owner’s love for their pet. In fact, it can be a selfless act of love, made in the best interests of both the dog and the wider community.
Ultimately, choosing to euthanasia for a dangerous dog is a deeply personal decision that should be made with careful consideration and the guidance of professionals. While it may be a difficult and traumatic experience, it is sometimes necessary to ensure the safety and well-being of all involved.

Dogs may develop the behaviour of barking to biting when they feel frustrated and their drives are not properly addressed. This behaviour can have various underlying causes, but it is often associated with fear or frustration. For instance, if a dog is barking at a person or another animal and feels unheard or misunderstood, it may resort to biting to communicate its message.
Socialising the dog and ensuring it has positive interactions with people and animals can help. Additionally, training the dog to respond to verbal commands and having a solid recall can redirect its attention and prevent it from escalating to biting.
Another helpful technique in dog training is premacking behaviour, which was first introduced by psychologist David Premack. Specifically, this technique involves using a high-probability behavior to reinforce a low-probability behaviour.
For example, if a dog loves playing fetch but dislikes going for walks, using premacking behaviour can increase its motivation to go for walks. Rewarding it with a game of fetch after a walk can help associate the walk with a positive outcome.
Using premacking behaviour correctly in dog training is essential. Firstly, the high-probability behaviour should always be something that the dog finds enjoyable. Additionally, the low-probability behaviour should be something that the dog needs to do to receive the reward.

Ambition is a powerful motivator and can drive us to achieve great things. However, when it comes to dog training, it is important to not let your ambitions get mixed up with your capabilities, especially when working with aggressive dogs.
Working with aggressive dogs can be a daunting task, but with the right approach and mindset, it is possible to help these dogs overcome their behaviour issues and lead happy and fulfilling lives. However, it is important to set realistic goals and to not let your ambitions cloud your judgement or put yourself or others in danger.
One of the most common mistakes that dog trainers make when working with aggressive dogs is to have unrealistic expectations. Aggressive behaviour is not something that can be fixed overnight, and it is important to recognize that progress may be slow and incremental. Pushing the dog too far too fast can be counter-productive and can actually make the aggressive behaviour worse.
We did an episode some time back called, Get comfortable saying No. Check it out

In this episode, we were thrilled to offer more in-depth responses to the queries of our esteemed audience members, who participated in the TCP discussion group and made their voices heard.
One of our audience members, George Nicholas, posed a thought-provoking question regarding the reliability of clients when it comes to using E-collars, even after being trained on their usage.
Additionally, Tracy Racich wondered about the individuals in the dog training industry who seem to possess an innate connection with canines.
Finally, Charlotte Merz inquired about the best practices for selecting the right breeder for a competitive bite-sport dog.
We love hearing from our TCP audience and it started all the way back in this episode Episode 42: Questions from our audience Part 1

As a dog trainer, you have a crucial role in helping dogs and their owners resolve behaviour issues. To be successful, it is vital to have answers to life’s questions, particularly when it comes to markers, cues, and primary reinforcer’s.
First, you need to understand what the dog’s behaviour problem is. Is the dog aggressive, destructive, or fearful? Once you have identified the problem, you must determine its root cause. This could be lack of exercise, insufficient attention, or a medical condition. With this information, you can create a plan to have answers to the problem.
Next, you must choose the right technique to modify the behaviour. Positive reinforcement, counter-conditioning, and behaviour modification are just a few of the methods available. You must understand these techniques and select the one that best fits each situation.
It is also crucial to know how to teach the new behaviour. What steps should you take and how will you reinforce the behaviour so it becomes a habit? The answers to these questions will guide you in your training efforts.
Markers, cues, and primary reinforcer’s play a significant role in dog training. Markers are signals, such as a clicker or a sound, that signal to the dog that a behaviour is correct. Cues are commands that tell the dog what to do. Primary reinforcer’s, such as food or toys, provide motivation for the dog to perform the desired behaviour.
Having answers to life’s questions is essential for dog trainers. Knowing the behaviour problem, the right technique to modify it, how to teach the new behaviour, and the importance of markers, cues, and primary reinforcer’s, will help you be more effective and make a positive impact on the lives of dogs and their owners.

How trainers make you see their content is an enlightening discussion as Pat shares his experiences working within a marketing company. During that time, he reveals the strategy that social media algorithms use to encourage more views and longer time spent on the page.
This is why we see trainers stepping outside their profession and spending more time being a performer than a trainer and making outrageous content. Many of them are addicted to the likes and the engagement stats and will almost do anything to get that next big rise.
So even if you don’t like them or don’t agree with them, they wrote that content to get you to come back and engage and because you did, they get the numbers and the dopamine hit.
We have discussed similar topics around this in previous episodes such as, arguing with an avatar

Perfection is paralysis when you find yourself unable to take a leap at anything in life until it’s perfect. This is why we see so many younger people fail to launch as they feel whatever they do, must be perfect.
It really is disheartening to see paralysis prevent talent from taking form in the dog training industry. It’s worse to know that paralysis came from fear of letting their mentor down.
However, a new year is upon us and we are moving out of a very hard 3 years and hopefully towards greener pastures. You can do this. This is your year. Merry Christmas

Real life problems with fictional solutions is how the world is working to solve some of the problems owners are having with dogs. Yes, we ranted in this episode as we can foresee a future that for many dogs was successful, will now not be. People who are upheld in the community are giving fictional advice while contradicting their own practices.
Trainers who misquote, mislead and misunderstand tools are continuing to create fictional headlines and beat up other trainers and owners who all see good results and have happy, healthy productive lives.
Cherry picked, sympathetic science is no longer a reliable place to seek non bias information when those very people are radical activists and report on their feelings and not observational facts.
“Death before discomfort” you squawk! I don’t believe you would choose that hypocritical option yourself. You’ll soon get your wishes now you have taken a reliable tool from the table and suitably mislabelled it to suit your grim narrative.
As we have known this is coming, we have done other predictive episodes on it called, A world without tools

You really don’t understand dogs at all when you appear to believe that training a dog is the same as training a marine mammal. Yes there are comparisons. Yes we have learned many great concepts from marine mammal trainers. However, if you still think it’s the same, then you most certainly don’t understand.
Furthermore, what people fail to understand is the implications that training tool bans are going to have on dogs. It’s frightening to know that some people’s ideal world is almost certainly going to be devastating for the dogs they say they care about.
Facts don’t care about feelings. Look with your eyes and not by what someone is screeching on social media forums, then hopefully you will understand.
We did another episode some time about marine mammals with Kim Greco

3 biggest mistakes new dog owners make is a headline based around one of those social media posts where someone dances and points at brief answers. We managed to almost make an hour and a half show on some of the points we felt needed open discussion on some of those mistakes.
Speaking of mistakes, we also found that we have no standardised language which attributes to handlers and trainers adding to the list of mistakes during confusing communication.
after you listened to this episode, here’s one from last week that got a lot of traction because we spoke about positive punishment.

Incompatible behaviour & positive punishment is a topic from a quote that we posted on our instagram some months back. The quote was from Dr. Susan Friedman and it says.
"The key question is not, how do I stop this problem behaviour? Rather, the question is, what do I want the animal to do instead, then teach it."
It's a good quote with plenty of merit. There are many who have taken it and have inferred that in order to do this justice, it can only be by way of teaching incompatible behaviours so the dog cannot perform the old behaviour.
We feel that incompatible behaviour is certainly a consideration, however it's limiting by not addressing punishment.
In this episode we discussed the ramifications of just this.

Lessons from the tantrum came from an actual full scale, first off tantrum that Pat's second son Axel had. According to Pat, it was of epic proportions and it gave him some perspective on how his dog must feel when he is confused about a situation and doesn't have the ability to effectively communicate it.
Any good educator will always consider the teachable moment, even in an unfavourable moment. Even a child's tantrum, which most parents would prefer to not have to go through can be an insight into language, behaviour or control.
For us, it was a way of taking a child tantrum and swinging back into a relative topic about training dogs.
perhaps this a good line for an episode from the past talking about how to deal with pressure

Cam Ford & the scent detection avengers is another great episode that we got to have in person with our great friend, Cameron Ford.
Although the wonderful team of doctors and specialists that presented at the Australian K9 scent detection conference were not with us, we got to think about and discuss their wonderful work.
The scent detection world is so diverse and wonderfully eclectic that it deserves and demands peer review and high levels of study. we were very fortunate to be involved in the conference and to have spent more time with Cameron so we could pick his brain.
We had the opportunity not long ago to speak with Cameron and Jerry Bradshaw on this episode

Jas Whiting raising working puppies is the long awaited update on what our great friend Jas has been up to. Even though we see her regularly there's been a lot of time between pod-cast catchups.
Also, Jas has been doing a bunch of amazing things. Kicking ass in the BJJ scene, lecturing at conferences, doing seminars, keeping up GRC training and more.
Safe to say that Jas has been doing some amazing things and keeping herself very busy in the dog world.
Here's an old episode we did about training and raising puppies

Marketing and the low hanging fruit is an inspired conversation from one of Larry Krohn's online posts. Larry was exceptionally disappointed when a colleague came into the chat and made some confrontational comments.
This aside, it raised some interesting notation on social media marketers versus their actual ability as a trainer. Multiples of conversations have been had on our platform and others about the effectiveness of marketing and the clown show around it.
Marketing is essential for a business. You have to do it to stay relevant. Social media has just made it easy for the turds to rise from the drains.
Here a similar topic we did called arguing with an avatar

Without the cookies, I'm just a monster is a part of a bigger story that developed from a listeners question on our discussion forum. It came about when we discussed how people can carry a burden for so long, that when given an option to lose it, they are scared of who they are without their cookies, or bad behaviors.
The majority of the story is talking about the potential of poisoning reinforcers, (food) when connecting desired behaviours to unforeseen aversive. It's not about literally poisoning food as we're not that kind of monster either. That's it for the cookies and the monster references.
Check out our first interview we did with Tyler Muto who we plan to get back on board

The evils of cherry picking information have been more evident in social media posts where agenda driven lunatics are trying to destroy a target. Politicians are amongst the worst of the cherry pickers, especially around election times. They are also amongst the least trusted people in the world.
Cherry pickers are trying to direct the attention of many people onto the focus of one or several people. However, they may need to be the point of focus themselves as they can be hate filled, agenda driven, divisive nut cases with intentions of destruction over building community or developing culture.
It's reassuring to know that this is the small minority and not the wonderful, supportive majority of our canine community that we have come to know and love.
After you listen to this episode, there's plenty more like this one

What do you want to do with your dog? Have you planned it all out or is it still pie in the sky at this stage? Did you buy a companion only to find you have a drive monster or did you get a dog for a sport only to discover it not what one of you want?
While many are happy with a coach potato, some want that dog with the V8 engine. However, some of the V8's pay for their energy with their life.

Check out an episode we did explaining Positive first
The new puppy and the baby trainer is an episode covering Birdy O'Sheedy's new puppy, PAX and how she is doing with him. It's also about Pat's experience with a baby trainer when Axel was having sleeping problems.
Birdy is an experienced dog owner from having her time with Luna, however she has never raised a puppy before. Now her and Dan are experience a different life with their new baby, Pax the Labrador so we get a run down of the antics that Skippy Mayhem is causing.
Meanwhile at the Stuart residence, Pat and Jane are breathing a sigh of relief after baby Axel has learned to not have baby party time in their bed.

Intuition versus learned from others was being discussed in an on-line forum and there were some interesting back and forth comments which sparked good conversation.
So what's right? Do trainers have intuition from the beginning or do they always learn from a skilled mentor. If we are talking about intuition, what does that even look like or feel like to those who have it?
How did your mentor learn when they got into the biz? Did they have intuition or were they in turn mentored?
Check out some of the earlier episode we have done on similar topics, episode 161 and episode 117

Be a monster, an absolute monster and the learn how to control it. It's a phrase from uncle Jordy P that we have a little back and forth over.
Naturally there's interpretations and concerns about what a monster could be, after all most monsters are portrayed as villains.
So why would anyone encourage you to be a monster?

My partner is not a dog person, is almost blasphemy in the industry of dog trainers, yet it's not that abnormal. For many of us, the other person in our lives is just not into the obsessive side of dogs. They don't get it
Of course we say that with compassion and understanding because it's something we have experience with. In fact, so does the other person in our lives.
It's a tricky situation and different people deal with it in different ways. We did an episode some time back about a similar but different topic where partners can create issues with the dog because the don't get it.

The most dangerous advice part 2 is naturally a follow on conversation from our last episode.
In this latest addition, Glenn reveals to Pat something from his past experience and some of the advice from a positive only group, that still to this day makes him think about what it cost some dogs.
Advice can still be questioned and sometime should be if it doesn't sit well.

The most dangerous advice part 1 is focusing on something that really annoys Pat and he wants you all to know about it.
You will get access to great advice in your lifetime, however, some can be very dangerous.
The danger happens because it's based on the bedrock of ignorance and it can get you or others hurt. Even though it may be coming from a good place, it still doesn't mean it's not dangerous advice.

The narrow scope between -R and -P was a fun conversation between both of us even though it's a largely and technically debated subject.
The reason we consider it a narrow scope is due to it being a splitting of hairs in how easy it can be to confuse where the dogs head is and assume one state over the other.
That narrow section in the middle is often where assumptions are made and sometime a wrong choice is being made.

Temperament testing puppies vs adult dogs is a regular question many trainers are asked. Especially if they are to be considered for working dogs in roles that will needs some planning.
The benefit of the adult dog is that you have the raw product in front of you. Primarily, what you see is what you get. with so many things to consider, the adult dog will be a lot closer to what you want than a puppy is.
You still need to consider the temperament in pet homes and try and be as honest as possible with the client or the trainer for what the dog will be coming into.

The stick pushes you to the carrot came from a question Minke Van Den Bergh asked in our enormous list of listener questions. It's a question we have looked into before from a different perspective but it still one that surfaces many times.
The question was in relation to losing your way in your job from time to time and how some days are a struggle.

Setting a dangerous precedent is focussing on how a state Government decided it would announce the banning of certain training tools.
The concern here once again, is the complete lack of industry consultation along the way with industry experts or any of the thousands of people who use these tools with enormous benefits.
We are joined by Kirsty Reid as she and Brittany Young with assistance from Marcia Davies, have created a on-line petition to demand better representation and consideration from Government decision makers.
What is a precedent you may ask? An earlier event or action that is regarded as an example or guide to be considered in subsequent similar circumstances.
So you may not entirely support some of the training tools that are being considered on the banning list but again the precedence from this action will leech into other areas that will have an effect on something you do want or need.
You can email the ladies direct on dogtrainingqld@gmail.com to receive all the information you require on how to help support this cause.

Is your opinion interesting? Or do you just chime in to be a part of the conversation? It has been said that, 'opinions are like ass holes because everyone has one'.
It's also been stated, 'you're entitled to your opinion'. Regardless of how we feel about them, opinions will always be a part of our social structure.
The on-line dictionary references an opinion as, "a view or judgement formed about something, not necessarily based on fact or knowledge".
For many of us, it's the fact or knowledge section that creates the struggle in any conversation when both are absent.
We also spent this session discussing listener questions again.

The minimum standard of a dog trainer is a talking point we had with our friend, Jo Rosie Heffenden. The topic around being a trainer and standards gets brought up a lot in conversations.
The reason being is that there are so many trainers who do not have any certifications and in some cases, no real training at all.
So how can you be a dog trainer with no qualifications with such a huge responsibility? The answer is easy. Nobody seems to care much.

The ability to deal with pressure is different for all of us. This was relevant to some more of the listener questions we have been getting in our Facebook discussion group.
Some of us deal with pressure really well. We have been conditioned from young children to be extroverted and confident and find many tasks easy to overcome and adapt to.
Some of us have not. We may have had inadequate social preparedness or possibly even forms of early abuse, which may prevent us from feeling our best in difficult social encounters and tasks.
Sometimes pressure is one of those processors that you don;t know hoe you will manage with it until it presents itself or at the time of life it does.
We wrestled around with this topic and other questions from our audience once again for some P&G insights.

A never ending love is something that most of us experience with either people or our pets. Even when we experience the shattering grief of their loss, the love we shared is timeless and is brought back to perspective whenever we think of them.
However, just as we experience memories of love and happiness, we also experience the sadness and pain at times when we recall the moment of loss.
Birdy O'Sheedy joined us to speak about her loss of Luna recently and how it inspired her to share those feelings and also help those of us who need it to have a person with us who understands all of it when the sands of time start to slip away.

The answer to the ultimate question is 42. Another borrowed offering from the Hitch-hikers guide to the galaxy. It's weird, it's British, it's awesome.
Last time we asked y'all, we got a lot of questions that we haven't finished answering yet so we wanted to dive back into that.

The ultimate answers to life, the universe and everything may sound vaguely familiar. For those of you who watched or read The Hitch-hikers guide to the galaxy, you'll get it.
Their ultimate answer to the ultimate question was 42. In our show it's more about answering questions from our show listeners.
In this episode, we had a good back and forth with some questions that we felt were good to make a start on. We will be revisiting some of the others in future episodes.

Never let the truth get in the way of a good story. Especially when you have been tasked to verify an experiment to determine training methods.
Why let a little thing like the truth compromise the outcome when the data sounds so much sweater to the ears when a few deceitful misdirections are in play.
It has been said that the truth shall set you free, however the truth can also bury your ideology. That being the case, RIP truth

When you lie about what you do but it comes out in your work that what you represent doesn't quite marry up, what does that say about you?
They do say that, 'actions speak louder than words'. So if you stand on social media and make claims of supporting a methodology that you don't practice yourself in the shadows, would you call that a lie or an inconvenient truth?
The following is a quote from Dr Jordan Peterson on how we lose our rights. Because of what's always happening in the dog industry, we hope you'll understand why we call for a unified community.
"This is how your freedom is taken. Things get to terrible places one tiny step at a time. If I encroach you and I'm sophisticated about it, I'm going to encroach two millimetres. I'm going to encroach right to the point where you begin to protest. Then I'm going to stop.
Then I'm going to wait. I'm going to encroach again, right to the point where you protest. I'm going to stop. And then I'm going to wait. I'm just going to do that forever. Before you know it, you're going to be back three miles from where you started.
And you'll have done it one step at a time. You'll ask "Oh, how did I get here?". The answer is "Well, I pushed you a little farther than you should have gone, and you agreed."

Sue Chipperton, from strippers to animal actors in an insight into this facinating ladies career as a professional animal actor coach and mentor in many of the big budget movies we have all seen and loved.

In addition to all this, we found out that Sue is an author of a book called, A famous dogs life where she talks about her little Chihuahua who was the renowned Taco Bell dog.
Prepare to sit back and pour yourself a tall glass of adventure as we dig into Sue's interesting past

How to celebrate your dogs final day may sound a little insensitive, however it's something that many of of are so desperately trying to avoid that we don't feel we did it justice.
Shouldn't that day be one to remember for all the right reasons? To be able to still smile and feel comfortable that you and your dog lived that best life right up to the end?
It is hard to think about but believe us, it will help. Some people go all out and make it a day where almost anything goes.
After all, they are one of the best things that ever happened to us, what's not to celebrate.
They also brought all of us together.
Respect and remembering any dog that was special to someone and the ones that had no one.

Sinister and the Sil Lim Tao are experiences that each of us had that remind us of how necessary foundations and the basics really are.
Over many different episodes we have both echoed the importance of ensuring that foundations are established and they create the cornerstone of good work
Once foundations are correctly established, what is crafted thereafter will have a much higher rate of success.
The problem for many of us is the foundations are boring! This is what sorts the wheat from the chaff and creates mastery in many cases. Being able to endure and push through those boring, repetitive basics.

know thy dog is clearly derived from Socrates with his immortal belief of know thy self. It can be quite an endeavour to really know oneself. To make that time to sit peacefully and internally come to terms with who you are. Some say it's a life's pursuit.
So if it's a long process to know thy self, how long does it take us to know our dogs? We mean, to really know them, not just perceive our belief of knowledge?

Seminar etiquette is primarily as predicted in the heading, some thoughts we had about hosting and attending seminars. It's been a long time that many of us in Australia have been able to attend a seminar, or host one.
Unless it's a protest, which is a seminar about the current disdain for Government where you come away with covid for your trouble.
So what do you think constitutes a good seminar?

Safety, love and preparedness is another way to think of setting up your life and home to be successful with your new puppy.
Puppies always make their way into conversations with dog trainers and so they should. There is such a vast amount of work that needs to be considered with a puppy that a lot of it should begin well and truly before the puppy gets home.
This is an area that is often poorly planned, People get a puppy, realise they don't know all that much about it, and then chase their tail trying to cram in information that could have been more helpful pre puppy.
The more you or your client know and prepare for, the more you will fall in love with your puppy as you will have a far greater understanding.

The 2021 Circle Jerk is a wrap up of the year that was. To be honest, it can go and fuck itself. We were all booing 2020 and looking forward to 2021 and what did we get for our troubles. More covid, vaccines, boosters, government overreach, no travel, limits, lock downs and masks.
But even with all that going on, we found time to be human, to connect one way or another, to celebrate our dogs, to further our education, to still show some compassion and to love our dogs.
May 2022 break the cycle of whatever madness we have endured and bring us back to normality. To travel, to family to friends and to your own circle jerk.
Be well, stay safe and bless you all

The best way to train a dog comes down to a very simple process. It's subjective! there are so many books, so many youtubes, so many opinions all floating around about the best way to train. It could be dogs, people, gym, cooking, you name it.
We have encouraged that when people become absolutest and have a one way, one answer rhetoric, walk the fuck away from them.
Good chances they have tasted the fruit of delusion and want you to fall into their cultist way of thinking.
So if you're thinking, well then, lots of people use this language, what should I look for?
My preferred way or a way I have seen great results are often the phrases used by mentors of good ethics.

The feeling of being out experted can be a kick in the egos balls, however it can also be an educational moment when you come back to earth.
There's a good saying in life that you're wither winning or you're learning. The important take away always should be in the learning in any situation you find yourself in and especially the ones you survive.
It's a wonderful opportunity to have access to people who know more than you do about the things you both love. That way they can show you how to be a better version of yourself if it's required.

When the word punishment is weaponized it can start to conjure up many different thoughts. The problem being that they are majority negative. Almost on a regular basis in these times, we find this to be occurring more frequently.
In some cases, it's almost a competition amongst the insane to see who can out perform the other group in their choice of weaponized words.
However, this episode is not rooted around the maniacal measures of cabals trying to control others. It's more focused around the unpacking and deep diving of punishment and many of the truths left from many of the stories.

Training advice from vets can often be a controversial topic of heated discussions within the training community. Some vets have been known to give great advice where others have made outrageous claims. Sounds like any other industry really,
However, this is the industry that we're all in as trainers. We rely on our vets to help us through health issues of all variations throughout the life of our pets. Our trusted vets are incredible people that are highly skilled and talented in their field.
That field however, often does not include training. Where some vets have gone on to do behaviour and training as an additional skill and can validate their advice, most can not and they shouldn't.
We should have a close and symbiotic relationship with each other and refer to the appropriate profession based on the requirements.
While writing this, it is important to note that the veterinarian profession has some of the highest suicide rates out there. Their jobs are highly stressful with some of the highest rates of abuse in any profession.
If you have a great vet, promote them and also let them know you appreciate them. it's nice to know you're loved and appreciated.

Embracing the path of Chaos sounds confronting. In this episode we talk about the types of language you use around your life. How you interact, how you coach, how you live your life.
We also speak about how teaching and coaching starts to flow into states of chaos and how it's best to be prepared for those times. In essence, you have to make friends with Chaos because even though that word can conjure up some powerful thoughts, feelings and beliefs, it's around us.
The Chinese refer to life as a relationship with Yin and the Yang. The relationship of control and chaos with each element possessing a small part of the other, while providing balance and harmony.
This is why it's important to not just seek one whilst fearing the other. Embrace Chaos and understand how to work with it.

Boyd Hooper is a name that has been mentioned on this Podcast and in many circles around Australia. Boyd was Glenn's first coach in bite work training, which is where Boyd really made a name for himself from the very early 1990's up.
Many of the freedoms and liberties that we have still been able to enjoy in the Australian dog industry have largely been thanks to Boyd and the other industry Titans that stood in the way.
Before many of the known groups reared their heads up to minimise access to training and tool use, Boyd was one who regularly stood fast in opposition and rebutted with prepared science and logical debate.
In addition, Boyd was an early pioneer of established training for the Australian Dog community in both customer and trainer education platforms, providing training to many thousands over a 40 year period.
It's a great honour to have him join us for our 200th show as it is to have all of you who regularly join us and largely support our work.
You can find our more about Boyd at TASK9

The past, the present and the future. It sounds like something from the hauntings of Ebenezer Scrooge as it is reflective of the toils that many, even most of us dable in frequently.
This episode started dabbling in the mechanics of shaping and chaining and then went on to complex skills. In the relationship of training and our relationship with our dogs, it's not uncommon to be time travellers.
What we mean by that is, we use the linear scope of time to think of what we would like to do, while remembering what we did and hope because of that we can do better in the moment.
The juggling act of the sands of time should mean that we can make the best use of past and future possibilities to direct our present and not confuse the shit out of ourselves or our dogs.

The minimum effective dose can be reference to many things. You may look at it and feel that the word, dose would mean medicine or vaccine. Given the turbulent times we are all in and how much news that's all making it would almost seem like a no brainer.
However in this context, the word dose is reflecting on amount. It was something that Pat mentioned during the episode recording which is how I, (Glenn) often come up with a name for each episode. During the edit, something either one of us says or something we have heard is the motivation behind the naming.
It closely relates to the concept of, No more one more time, which is discussed alongside this heading to remind us how to all be far better at communicating with our dogs.

The relationship between the decoy and handler is one that needs to be based in honesty, integrity, vulnerability and compassion. There is so much information both said and unsaid that is bouncing between 3 entities, the decoy, the handler and the dog.
Then you have the audience who are watching and taking notes along the way. So what is it that makes this type of dog training such a high level of involvement?
A decoy really relies on the attention to detail and instruction from a handler. In return, the handler has to trust and be ready to act on said instructions to ensure that the dog has a good experience and is learning the most accurate and relatable behaviour.
This relationship is intense and rapidly changing and evolving which is why there are so many variables all colliding. It sounds difficult, but it doesn't need to be when everyone plays their part well

A trainer without a dog is often a difficult position for some trainers. They may have lost the dog due to some unforeseen circumstance or may not have one at all.
This conversation was the result of a trainer putting something up in our Facebook page, which in turn, got us thinking about the complexities.
If you have the opportunity to listen to this episode, we would love to know your thoughts in the Canine Paradigm discussion group. Has it hindered you if you have been a trainer and you didn't have a dog or has it been business as usual?

A world without tools is an objective to several groups and individuals in the dog training communities. Clearly we're talking about the training tools that some trainers choose to use during the training process.
These are tools recognised as electric or remote training collars, prong collars, correction or choke chains, martinagles, slip leads etc.
To certain groups of dog trainers, many of these are the essentials, where some or all of them are selected over the training process and used in ethical educational outcomes.
To others, they are a tormenting and diabolical to be considered at all.
In Australia we sometimes refer to a 'tool' as an imbecile. So we have a training industry saying that suggests, "It's not the training tool that causes the problems. It's the tool on the end of the lead that does that".

Hobby, Jobby, job is an expression that came from the wise oracle Bart Bellon. It's his way of describing the transition between a hobby and a job, obviously with the jobby in-between.
Much like the phases of training that we some time refer to, this is a natural progression of many dog trainers.
They start off with the hobby and they find its been calling to them like the song of a siren. they get more involved, now it's taking the shape of a jobby.
For many who are asking how to get into the industry, this is a good flight plan. it allows you to develop the skills you need and gives you perspective of what you're enrolling in.
Good luck out there all the newer people coming into this wonderful industry.

Healthy every day is the story of a start up pet food company in Sydney Australia. The ethos of the business was to try and create a kibble that can be as low in carbohydrates as possible.
There are literally hundreds of different brands all volleying for space on the shelves. However the question needs to be asked. Are they honestly healthy?
This question has gone unanswered for a long time in pet foods because healthy was not as important as was profits.
Now its good to see that people with dogs are asking better questions and expecting more.

Punishment is like a daisy because the topic keeps popping up. A group raises the issue, people discuss it, it settles, then here it is all over again.
There are so many daisy like conversations in the training world. However, punishment seems to be the biggest daisy field of them all.
It's a topic that frustrates and scares people. Sometimes it should, as that at least that reignites discussion and hopefully starts better training and education.

The wisdom of Dave Kroyer by good fortune is something that has been vastly accessible through his on-line coaching. In this industry, you can really tell a lot about the holistic nature of someone when they have tasted success.
Dave Kroyer is a classic example of someone who has been successful and is still very modest and approachable. These are many of the traits that some cruel hearted and egotistical masters will never know.
You can never truly reach great heights AND experience peace unless you have honestly figured this out. To some, this is out of their reach, to others they have to choose it along the way when that cross road presents itself.
When we do have access to the mastery of someone like Dave Kroyer, make good use of the opportunity and seize it. Plus he's a cool guy with a great sense of humour.
We're really looking forward to doing another episode soon with Dave.
Check out his info https://www.davekroyer.com/

Calling all protection sports! It's really time that we started working together and it's something we have encouraged throughout our podcast.
Protection sports are fun, exciting, adrenaline pumping spectacles that scare the knickers right off the feint hearted. Protection sports are also under fire for many of the same reasons.
There are many people involved in them that do an outstanding job. There's also pockets of people out there that don't. they are the ones the camera's and the journalists focus on. They are the ones that many of the good people will feel the ire and hatred from the ill informed public.
The people in the protection sports need to unify. Not to do the same sport or to lose their identity, we all need to have large scaled, up skilled, group representation.
Work smarter, not harder. it's time

The power of conditioned reflexes is so vast and truly incredible when you understand what you're seeing. What's even more amazing is when you understand how to have control over the subjects feelings through a single cue.
Having said that, it also highlights the integrity one must undertake to control the reflexes of another.
Duran Duran wrote a song called The Reflex in the 1980's. there a line in the song that says, 'Every little thing the reflex does, leaves and answer with a question mark'.
Sometimes when you see conditioned reflexes, that line makes a lot of sense.

I want it all right now is how we are being thrust into this brave new world. we're being told, why wait when you want it now and can have it.
Why get it later when you have money, when we can give it to you on credit. That's great and some of those applications will certainly bear fruit. However, just because you want the skills now, doesn't mean your brain is ready to comprehend it
If it is, bonus! You won the genetics lottery and you deserve to move that quickly. For the rest of us, we may want it now but we may just be ready for it.

Kindness, empathy and boundaries is our latest episode with our wonderful friend and asset not only to our show but our community, Birdy O'Sheedy.
Birdy is a great practitioner of kindness and empathy and additionally helps set healthy boundaries for people in her own life and her clients.
We all wanted to do this episode at this moment because kindness seems to be fleeting. People are scared, the news is regularly negative, lockdowns are looming and the world is a little more crazy.
In the immortal words of the guru of kindness, Jackie Moon, "ELE, Everybody love everybody"

https://thecanineparadigm.com/2021/07/10/episode-184-normal-for-the-spider/
Normal for the spider comes from the Morticia Adams quote, "What's normal for the spider is chaos for the fly".
In this episode, we try and break down what normal is or more so, what it's become. What's normal now does not echo what was normal 5, 10, 20 years ago.
Today, wearing masks and going into lock down has become normal. Even though it's completely abnormal, it's an unfortunate part of what we have to accept.
But what is normal dog behaviour? What's a normal dog? What is normal training?
Who sets the guidelines on what became normal or is it just acceptance of something that creeps up on us over time?

Rabbits never jumps into wolves mouths is a term the most new decoys will hear. For all intents and purposes it's true. Rabbits doesn't jump into the mouth of a predator. It does what most healthy prey will do and it will run its ass off trying to survive.
The rabbit reference is usually used when the new decoy tries to throw the tug or sleeve into the dogs mouth. Being a young decoy, I recall one of the experience trainers giving me the rabbit reference.
The sentiment made sense and I took it on board, however over the years the concept didn't exactly stack up.
This episode is not only about wolves and rabbits. It also has a message on using strong language to make a point and how that can be taken out of context.
Lot's of provoking, meaty goodness that we hope you enjoy.

My partner creates problems are words that most pet dog trainers will hear when they do lessons. You will probably ask them what kind of problems? They will generally tell you they are problems relating to inconsistency.
When it gets down to the meat in the sandwich, we generally find out that they manage to keep the dog under control. Then when the partner interacts, they allow unruliness which they feel is counteractive.
Not only does this not help the dog, it can also cause further problems in the relationship as one of the couple feels it's unfair.
It's a difficult position for a trainer to be involved in these problems as you feel like a relationship counsellor and not a dog trainer.

Impostor syndrome is one of those horrible nagging doubts that some of occasionally experience. Being in a position of thinking you're an impostor can be crippling. Thinking that you will fail in front of people and they will find you out can be suffocating.
There are so many people in so many professions that go through this torment on a regular basis. The terrible truth is, they are generally incredibly competent.
An impostor is someone who is a genuine fraud. They steal identities and work from others and claim it as their own.
If you are feeling like an impostor, make sure that you are making time to speak with the right people about correcting this negative phrase.
If you are an impostor and you are fraudulent in stealing peoples work and material, it's time to lift your game. Do something better with your life. Maybe try a healthy dose of authenticity.

Change your mind. Sounds really easy in written word, however it proves to be one of the most difficult processors. There are so many quotes and examples of how one should change their mind.
However, is it really that easy to simply change your mind?
Being a dog show, we're not just talking about our minds, we are also discussing the canine mind. After all, there is so much benefit in the flexibility of both minds.

Should dogs be forced to work?
When the concern for the dog is raised, does the dog feel like it's lifestyle has been forced upon it? Or does the proposed forced dog in question rise to its genetic potential?
So, what's the future for working dogs in our communities when the politicians start poking around? We, like all of humanity who adore dogs want the best for them too.
Additionally we want assurances that balanced welfare concerns are being afforded to all dogs.

Slave to genetics is a topic that comes up a lot in trainer conversations when we can't quite explain our dogs behaviour. There are times when you just have to ask yourself why and it may just come down to genetics after all.
However, is genetics always the culprit? Are we quick to allow that to be the excuse? Could it be a case of improper understanding or input of new behaviours?
There are more than just one reason as to why both humans and dogs, (and all the other species) do what they do.
It could be genetics, it could be the control of stimuli or it could be mental impairment. It is a good reason for us to look a little deeper sometimes when we need a validation.

Frustration is one of the words that keeps coming up in training discussions. Some trainers recommend that it should never be used as a method of training. Other trainers swear by using frustration to modify behavior and to create change.
So is frustration a bad thing or a good thing?
We feel it's a bit of column A and a bit from column B. Another part of the answer comes from who's using it and why.
So join us on this episode as we deep dive into the world of frustration and our interpretation

Michael Shikashio on aggression was a wonderful interview with someone who is trailblazing in the world right now. Michael has spent a lot of time researching the basis of canine aggression and is helping more owners understand it.
As many dog owners who have dealt with aggression understand, this can be a very difficult process. Having people like Michael as a resource and mentor can help correct the imbalance. Not just in behavioural changes, lifestyle stresses as well.
If you want to know more about Michael, you can listen to his Podcast, The bitey end of the dog, or visit his website aggressivedog.com

Haley Young & Scout is an episode our community reached out and asked if we could help tell this story. We are so happy that we did as it reveals the trials and tribulations of owning a reactive dog.
Haley started an instagram blog about her adventures after rescuing a cattle dog, originally called Zip. She changed her name to Scout and the two of them have had some life changing adventures.
Like most owners of reactive dogs, Haley has been life schooled in how her situation needed to change to accommodate this dog.
If you want to learn more about their adventures, follow Haley and Scout on Instagram under paws.and reflect.

Reflections on the Monkey puzzle is a breakdown of a children's book called the Monkey Puzzle by Julia Donaldson.
It's a book that Pat reads to his son Rip before bed and they have been talking about the monkey adventure. It got on Pats mind so much that he weaved it into how we communicate with dogs. Not only dogs but with other humans.

Shadow work with Birdy is another episode where not only are we happy to have our good friend back, it's another deep dive into self care.
As many of you know, Birdy has spent her career learning how to help others through her training. In this episode, Birdy is encouraging us to look at what we hide in the shadow. Sometimes we don't know why we concealed our thoughts and feelings into the shadow but none the less, we did.
As both Birdy and us agree, if you ever feel that confronting your shadow feels intense, then reduce or stop what you're doing.
Sometimes you may need the guidance of a health care professional to assist with your thoughts and feelings.
Fortunately, you can also reach out to Birdy for guidance in this area.

Nando and Jo-Rosie are both well known and well respected trainers residing currently in Spain. Not so long ago, Nando Brown went and put up a social media post that went around the world.
In that post, our mate Nando named both of us and The Canine Paradigm which brought quite a bit of interest to our door.
Apart from that fun moment, both Nando and Jo-Rosie are well respected for their devotion to science in training.

Kim Greco, from dolphins to dogs is Kim's story and her account of training marine mammals and then pet dogs. We met Kim on a social media app called clubhouse and had an instant draw to her kindness.

After learning a little about Kim and her career, we had to get her on to share with you what she's done.
You can find out much more about Kim on her website Paws and possibilities

Influencers versus trainers is a more focused look at some of the people influencing in our industry. While there are amazing influencers who give so much amazing advise, there are frauds as well. They focus on a specific industry with a talent in marketing and buzz words while giving awful advise.
The same applies to many trainers as we have discussed regularly. Just because you're calling yourself a trainer, hiding behind a limited education and passing bad information is still adding problems to an industry demanding more.
This episode is not a bash. It's a focus point discussion asking people to educate with conviction and professionalism. If you don't know, learn. you have a responsibility to the community you're growing
Help people in the industry by being better skilled, no matter whether you identify as influencers or a trainers.
Also, if you appreciate the work that either team is doing, please make some time to let them know.

Life with your dog is a podcast show by our mates Panos Anagnostou and Luke Badman. In this episode we discuss several topics that range from guilt, fear, aggression and ego. We even discuss the realm of canine aggression and the difficulty surrounding it.
Panos reveals his vulnerability around his choice to return a working line puppy and how that punished his mind for a time.
Like always, it's good to network with good people who are actively trying to make improvements to the industry
You can find out more about their show here and get in touch with them through that site

Breaking free from an echo chamber discusses the realities of supporting a narrative that may be misleading.
Getting stuck in the echo chamber will not help you grow. It creates limitations in your ability to learn more about what you don't know. This in itself is where the main issues arise as your group is now convinced there's nothing more to know.
One of the points that you need to accept is that you will always be a student. It's nothing to be concerned about as it's really something to look forward to. The more you learn about what supports your lifestyle or occupation, the easy your life will be.

Arguing with an avatar is our thoughts around discussions that occur over social media. We find that many times arguments break out, we create an image or avatar of the person.
This can be a genuine issue as they may have so many more layers to them that we are unaware of. So the identity of the person may be lost to the bias around the social media avatar.
If you can choose anything in life, choose to be kind.

J Humps and the right paw is the story of Jen Humphrey, aka Jen Banks. We both met Jen at the IACP conference in Florida.
Jen has recently had a baby and was eager to share her experience of having a dog school, then becoming a new mother. She also did a re-brand which is where the right paw originated from.
If you want to know what on earth the J humps part is all about, well you had better listen to her interview.

Working Dog Radio is a podcast show run by Ted Stickels and Eric Stanbro. The ethos of their program is around working dogs in all applications.
Most guests on working dog radio are either Police or Military and they share their experiences and stories.
We haven't had a chance to have a group catch up as yet so it was fortunate that the planets aligned and allowed it.
We both enjoyed our time sharing stories and are looking forward to doing it again.
If you want to learn more about them, check out their website.

Purpose breeding puppies is usually on the minds of owners, trainers, breeders. We wouldn't say that's always the case as there are so many people who did it without reason.
Puppies and puppy breeding have come under a lot of scrutiny in the last 10 years. Namely as there are so many puppies that never makes it to adulthood.
However, puppies do play an important part into preserving lineage of carefully planned breeding.
You know we both support rescue, however we both still see relevance in ethical breeding.

Poking Larry Krohn's bear isn't easy to do as Larry is a really great guy. However, like most of us, we have a straw that breaks our back under load and this industry can sometimes do that.
Given that Larry has amassed such a large following of people all over the world, he also get some haters. Most of them are just sad, lonely people, some are people who should know better.
Regardless, Larry is a professional and he still loves to help people and we love to chat with him

Reasons for sharing knowledge is that we all have a responsibility to pay it forward. This allows others to use it and even find ways to make it better.
Knowledge is a gift given to all of us. We owe it to ourselves to ensure that we help to raise the ceiling of overall knowledge. This in turn ensures we leave this world in a better way than what we came into it.
Some inspiration minds have summarized their thoughts around sharing knowledge.
In vain have youacquired knowledgeif you have notimparted it to others.Deuteronomy Rabbah
In the long history of humankind(and animal kind too)those who learnedto collaborate andimprovise most effectivelyhave prevailed.Charles Darwin
Knowledge restsnot upon truth alone,but upon error also.Carl Jung

HNY and FU 2020. Hopefully this brand new, untouched, untarnished year will provide some much needed relief.
2020 really pinned us all to the yoke of unfortunate circumstances. Yet while some cried, some triumphed. We do hope that the worst of 2020 is behind us. Even though 2021 doesn't magically make it disappear, it does provide hope.
We hope that you and all your loved ones and well and that better things come your way.
Thank you for another year together.

Rite of passage is a ceremony or ritual of the passage which occurs when an individual leaves one group to enter another. It involves a significant change of status in society.
In this show, we discuss a little in detail about the rite of passage dog in the working dog world. For anyone who doesn't know what that means, it's the hardest most powerful dog.
It's the dog that puts you on your ass and gives you bragging rights. Most sports dog groups or breeding groups know this dog and want to work it.

Melanie speaks of the necessity of restructuring and how she had to do it for her health. Sometimes when people consider restructuring themselves, they can find that overwhelming.

Grisha Stewart became very well known to the canine community after she authored her book BAT. The acronym of the book is Behavior Adjustment Training, which is mainly directed at dogs with aggression issues. As well as being an author and trainer, we got to find out a bunch of things Grisha used to do.
The great part of the podcast interviews is not only meeting and making new friends like Grisha. It's spending time with people and hearing their back stories. How things came to be and where fate intervened.
You can also get to know more about Grisha from her interview, or you can go to her website.

Misia Bielicki's introspection is a detailed account of our friend Misia who we first met at an IACP conference in Florida.
She's a fun lady with a great sense of humour and a wonderful outlook on life in general.
In this episode, Misia reflects on a conversation her and Glenn had whilst having some brews one night. Not that either of them knew it at the time but it had a meaningful outcome. Listen to the show and hear her origin story and more on this.

Tyler Muto meditations is a catch up on someone who has does a lot for the industry. Not just that, Tyler is a mate to us and many people around the world.
It was alarming to hear that Tyler had slipped into a depression over the last couple of years. He was kind enough and trusting enough to share that information with us and speak about how he combatted it.
Similar to Tyler, many people fall victim to this silent predator that comes from our dark past. It can hit us without warning and change everything.
This year has also been one that gave plenty of us a punch in the face. It has been hard but we still have each other and we are good for one another.

Brent Dry's lock down experience was an eye opener for us in Australia who didn't realise what was happening in Victoria. Brent who is usually an upbeat, happy social community leader lost his mojo.
The good news, he got it back, however it was a eye opener on what lock down did to him and so many others.
Victoria, the south eastern state in Australia was subjected to one of the most intensive lock down terms in the world.
Many others in the world have been going through terrible experience. we're not making light of anyone's collective or individual suffering. It's all cruel and terrible.
It's a little reminder to us how important our connection to our community is. Don't ever take it for granted.

The dangers of obsession can expand into every corner in our lives. Obsession can be controllable, however it can also get very far out of control.
The activity of dog training can be one of those fields with strong pulls of obsessive behaviours. The trick is to know when to say when and try and find healthy life balance.
No one said it would be easy. Obsession is a sneaky and seductive mistress and she wants you to be weak. However it should be noted that obsession has ruined a lot of good dogs because it brings friends to the party.
Impatience, anger, corruption are just a few bad traits that can easily tag along for the ride. Enjoy the time with your dog and also with your family and your friends.

Just because you don't understand it, it doesn't mean it's not right. This is an epidemic worse than our current pandemic. It's nothing new, however it appears to be getting worse. Subjects that people clearly don't understand are passionate subject matter in conversation.
How can we have so many people claiming knowledge in fields they have no experience? Is it more about drama and entertainment that tantalises the taste buds of the public now?
We only ask that people understand the bare minimum before entering into a logical conversation. At least that way we are all discussing the same topic with some authority.
Our additional advise is, don't ban everything. Educate, learn and comprehend. Truly understand your subject matter

No more one more time, is an old phrase that Glenn has been saying frequently on the show. It's a statement that began since the early days of Australian Dog Training, used to prevent clients over training.
The rule of no more one more time applies to all of us in many different aspects. It encourages us to use our time wisely and focus on making training more successful.
We find that we push for more time when we get excited by our results. We do this also when we feel not enough effort is given.
A wise mentor once said that, Time takes time. So choose wisely and take all the time you need.

You can't handle the V8 is a metaphor in relation to how a dog owner may desire a strong dog. Even though they want this type of dog, they may not be ready for it. If they ignore the advise or signs and go ahead and get their V8 dog, it's going to be schooling.
so, if it's the V8 dog you desire, do your homework. Know what you're going to get into. Work with people that understand that type of dog and can show you how to live your collective best lives.

https://thecanineparadigm.com/2020/09/26/episode-146-language-is-important/
Language is important all over the world. It can determine acts of love, compassion, offence, hatred, war and entire cultures.
It's a point of interest in our own industry as we often find ourselves arguing over terms and definitions. The very language that many of us operate under can be the same that divides us.
The reason language is important is that it allows us, if we make the time, to better understand each other.
This is fundamentally why people say, 'choose your words wisely'.

Denise Fenzi is a very well known and accomplished trainer in the canine world. She is an accomplished author, blogger and influencer through her business, Fenzi dog sports academy.
She was kind enough to join us on the show to talk about what matters to her. Also Denise discusses how life with dogs has given her so much and the many things she's learned and still learning.
One of the many talking points we enjoyed with Denise was sharing mistakes in training videos. We believe that many new trainers learn from seeing what happens when mistakes occurs and what the pros do to fix them.
In any event, it was a delightful conversation spanning many years of experiences. We hope to have Denis back on the show soon to have another round of training conversation.

Kathy Santo is one hell of an impressive lady. She's an accomplished trainer, author, show co host and successful business owner.
We were so glad to be able to have a conversation with her so Kathy could provide us with a small snapshot of her time in dogs.
There are so many cool people out in our community with great stories to share and experiences.
We're very happy to get to know Kathy Santo a little more and appreciate her contribution to the dog world.

Hard rules in training can be your certain rules that you just don't break. Some people have reasonable rules that they put in place for ethical reasons. Other people have rules that are contradictory or even confusing.
We have our own set of rules and standards that we try and abide by. We also audit those rules and allow flexibility if they need to be modified.
What are your hard rules in training?

Industry frauds you say? They are out there. Some know they are frauds and know exactly what it is they are doing.
Others have no idea. They think they are amazing and what they are putting out is solid up to date work. Some of these people are harmless and just need to be shown the light. Others, they are dangerously naive.
If in doubt, do back ground checks. If they don't seem right, or it seems to good to be true, it's possible that is it.

The circle of trust goes round and round! If you have seen the movie, Meet the Fockers, the basis is about trust, or rather a lack of it.
So if we are going to open with trust, our audience usually trust us to do a show based mainly around dog training. This weeks episode is more so focused on the human.
Trust is a hard thing to earn and a quick one to lose. This is especially the case in the dog industry.

Uncomfortable questions are a part of everyday life. Most successful relationships are based around dealing what's uncomfortable.
Those of us in the professional dog training business know it's unavoidable to have the occasional uncomfortable conversation.
We are no strangers to the uncomfortable questions and responses. It's not about being nasty or looking for conflict. Many times it's just dealing with the reality of a difficult process.
It can, if done well be a significant weight to unburden yourself of something that may be a little painful but ultimately beneficial.

Matthew Boon the sales sniper joined us this week to discuss the very important and highly underestimated power of sales.
It's an area dogs trainers and small business owners usually suck at. We don't realise how important it is until the phone's not ringing ans the money isn't coming in.
Sales is an area that makes or breaks your company so it literally pays to get it right. Having a good coach help to get you there is the same for us in training dogs for clients.
Good business coaching is a skillset and science requiring investment. Don't make the mistake of not investing in it.
On the podcast, Matt mentioned his sales pages show notes link. and here it is.

Following up on being bitten takes off from episode 132 where we initially spoke about the subject. Because we had so many people reaching out that had also been bitten, we decided it would be a good idea to follow up.
So many of our listeners shared personal experiences of the personal anguish they were going through.
We had to follow up as a testimony to their bravery, as being bitten and living with the memory can be difficult.
Our listeners shared in their vulnerability, guilt and shame and how they are coping to this day.
Hopefully if you have been silent but this resonates, it will help you find some help or peace.

Social nuances is described as a subtle or slight degree in difference. On the Canine Paradigm, the word nuances is often raised when we discuss training styles. however, it extends beyond just our interest of dogs and training.
We are living in a time of many social nuances, some that are quite strongly projected. To best discuss this, we brought in someone smarter than us to help diagnose the subject.
Birdy O'Sheedy has joined us again to offer her professional insight, not only on this but our old friend the ego.
Hopefully this episode will give you a few tools to better understand the ways we communicate.
Furthermore, you can reach out to Birdy if you are having difficulty with the world around us.
Additionally, there are many good people within our groups who help by just being available to talk with.

Coping with being bitten is quite an undertaking as it can really change your perspective. It really can be something difficult to comprehend as it feels so personal.
Being bitten can and does change your relationship with your dog as it can leave you feeling violated. It can make you question your confidence and safety with your dog and many times your ability as a trainer.
In this episode we try and make a little sense of why these things happen and give suggestions on how to cope. However, as we are not psychologists, we can only make recommendations when thoughts are too serious.
In the event you do find yourself struggling with your thoughts, we always recommend the council of a trained professional. One to examine the dogs behaviour and perhaps someone to help with your thoughts.
Dogs bite for a lot of reasons, therefore we suggest being aware of the events leading up to being bitten. Although this is a helpful suggestion, it may not always be practical.

Scent detection is an art form in dog training that is best described as a methodology with many nuances. Two very well respected trainers who are well known for their work in scent training join us for this episode.
Jerry Bradshaw and Cameron Ford join us again, this time together, to share their ideas and techniques in scent training.
Like most trainers, both of these gentlemen have their respective style. Although we may have our preferences, we can't deny good training and results.
Making sense of scents is a skill set that all good detection trainers should strive for. Additionally, it not only improves the dogs we train but the students we coach.
We hope you enjoy this episode as much as we did.
For more information or to contact them, Jerry is at Tarheel Canine and Cameron is at Ford K9

Sami Jo Menning has been learning to hunt with her father when she was a young girl. Now she has taken the next steps with her passion of hunting with dogs to teach other young ladies.
Seeing that it was a difficult sport/ hobby to get into, Sami has set up a group called, Her wilderness so other ladies can learn and be involved.
Not content at that alone, she is also teaching and competing in dock diving with her dogs. Sami is quite a dynamic young lady and a great role model for other ladies looking at learning how to safety learn hunting skills.

Interviewing a new trainer should be a process that all new and existing dog owners strongly consider.
We say this because a lot of time, people end up with the wrong trainer for a range of different reasons. Many of these are because they didn't do their homework in the first place. Other reasons include being duped by clever marketing.
It's forgiveable to assume, big add, lots of money so they must be a great trainer. It can also mean that they are just great at marketing and average at the important part.
This really needs to be a win/win scenario which results in a great outcome for you and your dog

Jason Firmin is a name that has been attached to The canine Paradigm since our humble beginnings. In some ways, he's the third musketeer, apart from Birdy.
Firmin may sound like a gruff, grumpy old bastard, however in reality he has a heart of gold. He still is all those things and more but he will drop everything to help out his mates and the industry.
Recently Jason has been embarking on an incredible weight loss journey which he really needed to do due to several health concerns. Firmin shares his battle with obesity and complications that almost cost him a leg.

The role of the master coach ultimately is to empower the student to learn everything they can. It's teaching a person to be empowered, not creating a dependant. In last weeks episode we spoke about dependencies. What's interesting and disturbing is that some coaches exploit that.
They become a drug dealer rather than a life dealer. Instead of coaching the bird to leave the nest and fly, they keep the bird small and make it feel helpless without the coach.
A true master coach is not about vanity and ego. They want their student to ultimately be better than them.

Diminishing return is an episode that focus's around a point of obsession. That area is based around people who too much of something, which throws their life plan out of balance.
For example, think of a student who studies for a job. Once they get the qualification, they then feel that perhaps they should do some more study to stay ahead of the game. Then, after they finish that course, they enrol in another and then another and so on. Now they are in a phase of diminishing return.
In the field of economics, diminishing returns has a different meaning which is, s the decrease in the marginal output of a production process as the amount of a single factor of production is incrementally increased, while the amounts of all other factors of production stay constant.

Peggy's promise is a pet rescue charity organisation located on the central coast of New South Wales, Australia.
It is mainly run by three ladies, Sharon, Eleni and Megan with a score of wonderful volunteers. These people give so much to all the throw away pets in society by opening their homes and their hearts.
What most people don't know is that rescue organisations like Peggy's and so many more dip into their own pockets. Funding these operations are not cheap and there's not a lot of deep pockets around.
So where does the money from? It comes from us with a lot of hustle from the people running the organisations.
It's also a lot of work! Much more than most people realise or care to think about.
So how can you help? You can donate money, usable items or volunteer.

Pat Nolan's Covid project is a promising look into the potential of dogs being trained to detect Covid-19. We understand that there are no guarantees in this field, however it's exciting nonetheless.
We're very supportive of Pat Nolan being a part of this project as it has potential to change the world. It's a part of our life for now to keep hearing the word Covid - 19 or Corona virus. We're sick of it for the most part as it has stopped the world and disrupped what we know as normal.
However, we don't mind hearing about Covid -19, if we have promising news about its demise. We have the people at Penn Vet working dog centre to thank for this project being available to test.
You can look into the type of work they are involved in with theis link, Penn Vet.
Pat and Penn Vet are appealing for donations at this time to help fund the effort. You can reach out to Pat Nolan on how you, the community or a business may be able to help.
We plan to catch up with Pat in the near future in regards to a Covid training update and what progess he has made.
During this time, we hope you're all doing ok. As a result of this work we may see a covid free world someday.

Training ideas during lock down is now the new norm for now which means we need to evolve. No one we know saw this coming, it's the stupidest thing and it's very serious.
What is even more serious during this lock down process is how it will effect peoples lives and businesses. Not to mention the impact it's already having on mental health.
So the lock down means change to our life and to our income. Fortunately we have access to the internet and we can still be somewhat social.
To many people, it's a lifestyle they are sadly familiar with. Staring at their phone all day, living inside, being anti social. They can now live their best life without judgement.
For the rest of us, adaptation is the key. Get used to it and gear up for change.

Help your mates is a term touted in Australia ever since I can remember. For a while it seemed to run out of a bit of steam which is unfortunate. In some cases, people work on the premises of screw your mate.
When you watch people beating each other over toilet paper, that makes you question the integrity of mates and mate-ship.
In any emergency, you must take care of yourself first. You simply have to or the possibility of two accidents or worse exists. Then when you're in a good position, try and be of service to others. That's the true meaning of mates.
You don't have to give them everything you have! Sometimes it's just simply a beer and a chat.
Honestly, sometimes it's the little things that make the biggest differences

The Fat commando may seem ironic as a heading and you may be wondering what's the relevance? Well to answer that, you will have to listen to the episode smarty pants. While we are talking about smarties, Americans don't even have real smarties like Australians do. I mean, WTAF? They are not the same and not delicious. Lift you game USA, because Canada knows what we're talking about.
We are living in strange times indeed and it has nothing to do with getting fat from eating delicious smarties! Dam it, now I want some and I'll probably need a bodyguard to get to the store.Herein lies the issue. We are under siege by a worldwide virus, COVID-19 and it's scaring the shit out of people as the world has crawled to a pace we have never seen before.
Even though this is a dog training and behaviour podcast at the core, it's still a community based show. We care about you and we care about our community and we don't want you to get too fat on smarties during restricted movement.
We hope this passes soon and you and your loved ones stay safe during these uncertain times.
Keep informed by trusted science based updates. Not by old mate Tom down the road. Fuck that guy, unless he brings Smarties and toilet paper.

The six p's is an episode that focuses entirely on being a better organised dog owner or handler. The six p's mean that proper preparation prevents piss poor performance.
It's an expression that's been around for quite a while and is still used frequently in many services. When you think about it though, it's hard to argue with. When you have a plan, it makes the operation so much easier. It relieves stress, because you're organised, it increases the time factor, it prevents frustration and adds more value to your life.
There are so many positive factors that it's almost hard to think we wouldn't do it. However we are human. It's easy for us to become motivated by other pursuits.
If it sounds familiar, it's something that annoys us about our own dogs behaviour. Therefore, if we identify it early, we can collectively work on resolving that as an issue as well.
It sounds like like a lot to do but it will make your life far more enjoyable. Just think of the six p's.

Never stop learning should be a mantra that most people adopt throughout their lives. When we open ourselves to learning something we expand so many opportunities.
It enhances lives, communities, businesses you name it. The more we open ourselves up, the less ignorant we are and the more progressive we can be.
rather than fight something on rumour or innuendo, we can really know what we're fighting for.
Students of dog training need to remain educated over being opinionated. We will all do far better for our dogs and our community if we continue to grow.

Tobias Gustavsson is one of the team behind the Scandinavian Working Dog Institute. Tobias is not only involved in just training, he and his team are heavily involved in the science application.
If you know anything about scent detection, you will know that it is considered an evolving science. There are so many areas about Canine olfaction we are still learning about.
This is why it's so important to have research teams like Tobias and his colleagues. if we want to get better at what we do, we need updated information.
Along with interviews like Cameron Ford and others who are involved in deep research, Tobias speaks of the importance of puppies
Tobias also shares with us a small part of history on how his former colleague came up with the Swedish Mentality test.
Web hope you enjoy another sensation interview with a leading trainer

Rescue dog remedy is an episode that we felt should be discussed as an help file for new owners. not just new owners, it's also for people who have been given incorrect information.
For example, some people are told that their rescue dog has been a part of a bait ring. In a majority of cases, this is highly unlikely. It doesn't mean some dogs are not subjected to this torment. It does mean that at one time it became a story that escalated quickly.
Because of this and other reasons, we felt it was time to make a reference episode for the rescue community. Therefore, we can help by dispelling myths and educate on more of the accuracy.
If you are looking to get yourself a rescue or know someone that is, perhaps consider this episode. It may give someone a better start to sharing a life with a new dog.
We would like to acknowledge many of the people who work in this field. There are so many who give their time freely and compassionately. It can be full of reward and tears as there are so many moving parts in this industry.
People also like to know what they can do to help out. Sometimes a donation will go a long way, other ways to help are to volunteer.
Another suggestion we encourage is to do some research. This will go a long way in helping you learn a lot more about who you're dealing with. There are always a mix of good and bad in all industries.
At any time if you are uncertain, reach out and ask others in the industry. Use resources that are available on-line and don't let emotions cloud good judgement.

Taking care of you may sound arbitrary, however it's often so easy overlooked and undervalued. In many cases, dog handlers will fuss more over what their dog is eating while not giving a second thought to themselves.
It's so wonderful that we are learning to take better care of our dogs. Owners are making better choices in diet and staying more informed on what should go into their pets food.
But what about us? Why is it that our care has taken a back step? What type of backwards world are we living in that our health and wellbeing plays second fiddle to our pets?
This is why Narelle is speaking about her passion to make you aware of how easy self care can be. Furthermore, if we do spend a little more time on our health, it pays off in dividends in our training.
Finally, if you want more advise on how to do this, reach out to Narelle because it's what she does best.

Cameron Ford is a fascinating person Pat met while he was in Las Vegas. Cameron is steeped in knowledge and has an extensive background in training dating back to 1995.
He began his professional career as a canine detection handler for explosives and narcotics in the US air-force. From there, Cameron was posted in Germany and had access to most of the best canine training in Europe.
When you hear this episode, we are both certain you will sit find it extremely interesting. Both he and his colleagues are working on some ground breaking scientific study which will strongly benefit detection work.
How so you may ask? Why not listen to the episode and let Cameron tell you himself. It was certainly an enjoyable session for us and we will be enthusiastic to have him return for more
If you're in to Noseworks, detection or puppy raising, this will be a subject of interest to you or your department.
In the links below, we have provided details on how you can find Cameron and find out more of what he is doing.

Urban Myths Part 2 was inevitable after we had a backlog of myths from our last farming session. There are so many myths out there it's almost impossible not to hear them. However, there were a few that we had not heard before that were both comical and troubling.
For example, If you give a working dog milk, it will never work again! Or you can get pregnant by sitting on a toilet seat.
That's the kind of information that old mate down the road loves telling the kids. Urban myths exist in all industries and just for the hell of it.
Thanks to our number 1 fan, Emma Murdoch for collecting a boat load of bullshit for your listening pleasure.
We do hope you enjoys our new batch of myths for 2020

Reflection and Gratitude are virtues that most share around the time midnight ticks over on the 31st of December. Reflection allows us to examine life in and around us with a little more detail. Gratitude is recognising the many good people and things in our life that have made it great.
For example, if we both reflect on the past 2 years, we are very grateful for where we are. We are also grateful for where we are going. The AMAZING people around us, the opportunities that have arisen.
Sometimes in life, we look and focus on the things that are hard and not going as planned. It's a little to easy to focus on these at times so it's good to have reminders on what to be grateful for. It also allows peaceful reflection.
We hope you all have a wonderful 2020 and we thank you for following us on our journey.
Please join us on more education and hilarity throughout the year.

Surviving Christmas is about enduring the fatigue which comes at this time of year for almost everyone. Ideally, Christmas should be about spending time with loved ones and if your religious, it about the birth of Christ.
It has however become a hard time of year for so many people for many different reasons. It's also a time of year where we need to be more vigilant about our dogs, their behaviour and eating habits.
There's many reasons why this year can be stressful, however we would hope that you do make time to find the love in it.
Thank you for being a part of our TCP family.
Have a Merry Christmas

Ask us anything part 3 is the third and final part of our string of listener questions. We had a lot of fun doing this and being able to interact with out audience. Also, when you ask for anything, you get some very good questions.
Thanks to everyone who submitted questions. We hope you like and enjoy the responses and always remember this point. We do not and will not ever claim to be the authority on every point. In most cases we are having a conversation about topics we are familiar with.
Some points we may be an authority while others are opinions.

Patience is a virtue. It's also one of those traits many of us lose all too often. We all know we should have more of it as it serves us well in so many life aspects. Such as work, family and dog training, just to name a few.
Luck for us we have our beloved Birdy to join us on the show once again to coach both of us in patience. We know we can benefit from it as it highlights so many applications.
Just editing a podcast takes patience. There's lots of stops and start along the way to get this content cleaned up.
But what about in dog training. When shaping new skills we have to be patient. It takes time to learn new skills for puppies and dogs or any other species.
"Beware the fury of a patient man".

Katrina Hartwell is one of those people who will come into your life and you wont be able to forget her. It may not occur to you why at the time that she's one of the nicest people to meet. She doesn't say much at first. Katrina is quite quiet when you first meet her, however she is a deep thinker with a big heart.
We didn't know it at the time that Katrina is a known and celebrated Bandog breeder. Apparently world famous too.
As well as all that, she's the meme queen in our local dog chat groups and hilarious.You'll no doubt love her as much as we do.

Ask us anything Part 1 obviously means there's a part 2 in the works. However, if our devoted listeners have questions, we try and do our best to answer them.
Some of the questions were fantastic too and it was great to see so many of them. We have professed before and we will continue to do so, we are not the authority on everything. If we don't know the answer to a question we hope to find the person who may have it.
Too many time in this industry we have people answering questions with no real knowledge of the topic. It's important to ask the right person, not just someone who will put their hand up to have a go.
There's no shame to ask the right questions to relevant people. The best part of any good education is to go on a journey to meet fascinating people with great stories.

Heather Beck IACP is another interview we were fortunate enough to record while in Colorado Springs. If you don't know Heather, you need to see what this lady can do. She trains dogs, camels and rides a bull!
If that hasn't got your interest peaking yet, we're not sure what will. Along with all this, she has invented her own training lead, called the Transitional lead.
You can check out more about Heather and her invention on their website, K9 Lifeline

Dr Roger Abrantes IACP is an interview we have both been eagerly waiting for. Dr. Abrantes is an author on the behaviour of animals He has a PhD in evolutionary biology and ethology and a Bachelor of Arts in philosophy. He is the divisional director at the Ethology Institute Cambridge where he holds regular lectures.
Because of the work or people like Dr Abrantes, we now understand a lot more about the behaviour of animals. One of the key areas that he has stood out for us is his definitions on aggression and predatory behaviour.
He was also kind enough to correct us both on a mistake in our understanding that will be beneficial for the entire training community.
It was a genuine honour and privilege to have a conversation with this wonderful person.

Dr Ian Dunbar IACP conference was quite an honour and privilege for us to meet and speak with him. Ian Dunbar is well known throughout the world as a vet, behaviourist, author and speaker.
The good Dr is also known for his outspoken views which has gained him both hot and cold receptions. It was quite an experience getting to meet Ian Dunbar. He is a very charismatic personality in public life, however he explains it's different for him in private.
We have both followed his early work and found segments differing from our own beliefs. However, this is not uncommon for most professionals. We did come to realise that we and many others have cherry picked topics.
Ian explained that sometimes it's fairer to read and understand the entire message instead of just the paragraph. This point alone was a pearl of wisdom to encourage critical thinking.
It was an enjoyable conversation and a valuable experience for us to have the opportunity. Hopefully you will enjoy it as much as we did.

Canine consent is a topic we chose to look into on the weeks podcast as it's one of intrigue. There is now a growing number of supporters suggesting that we should ask consent from a dog before certain practices.
However, when there's an argument for a practice, there is usually one against. So naturally, there is a suggestion that it is not possible for a dog to consent to.
Now, we're asking for the fact. What are they? What is the supporting science?

Catching up with Emma Murdock IACP was great as we spent some down time with our number 1 fan. Anyone who's listened to the show and been in our forums has known this for a while.
Emma Murdock has her own business in Ottawa, Ontario Canada and we got to see it in person. Her business name is Walk with me Ottawa which you can see below in the links.
We have also befriended many of the Walk with me Ottawa gang who have their own Instagram thing going. The first time we saw it we started to realise how neat it was.
We always appreciate our listeners and their support. Emma, as mentioned has been a huge influence with new listeners and people from Ontario and throughout Canada.
She also helps by being a TCP site admin and advocate of many of our beliefs.

Jay Jack on Flexi's at IACP was always bound to be a topic of controversy and hilarity mixed with education. It's almost impossible now to know this show and not know Jay Jack as he has contributed a so much. In fact you would most likely know of his podcast with Chad Mackin, Dog training conversations.
So at this years conference, Jay got to present on Flexi Leads and as expected, it was a crowd pleasing topic. Jay was very entertaining and dig a great job of presenting his argument.
If you're not up to date on Flexi leads, there a great deal of provocation about the safety of their use. Like all tools, there's a learning curve that must be maintained to master its use.
If you have never heard Jay Jack speak, you're missing out. He's very captivating and very real in his delivery and humour which makes his shows so much fun.
We also got to catch up with Jasmine Whiting while she has been travelling around the states. She has been hosting work shops, seminars and kicking butt in BJJ comps. It's been wonderful to see her so happy and her personal growth coming along in leaps and bounds.
The IACP conference speakers this year have been top notch and it was wonderful to see Jay present.

Episode 94: Our summary abroad is really that. A summary of our time and experience during the Canadian seminar and the IACP conference.
We started with a very long plane flight from Sydney to Montreal, followed by a 2 hour drive the next day to Ottawa. From there we had a little time to settle in before the seminar started.
Over the following days we got to meet and teach some amazing people who were just incredible people. Some of those people even joined us at conference for the IACP.
Following on from there, we left Canada to head back to the USA to meet up with Shawn and Janet Edwards. Every year they hold a trial to honour the memory of Janet's PSA 3 dog Zuko over a 2 day trail.Glenn got to learn more judging experience and Pat assisted in decoying. After that we both headed off on another visit of Americas airports to head to the IACP conference.
This years conference was in Colorado Springs with over 500 people attending. It goes without saying that it was an amazing time and we met more great people.
Glenn was asked to join the IACP board of directors and was accepted which was a huge honour.
The entire experience was a blast and the conference ended it well

Dr. Casara Andre IACP 2019 was an unexpected delight at the conference this year. We had never heard of her or the work she was involved in until now. This is why having these opportunities is so important so we can meet new people and find out what they are doing.
Cannabis, THC and CBD have been a stigma for many years and only recently have we begun to relax. Laws in many countries now are starting to realise that there are potential treatments available. Even now there are new studies in the medical and veterinarian fields showing enormous benefits.
This is why it was exciting for us to meet and talk with Dr. Casara Andre and her colleague, John about their work. When we make an effort to understand subjects with more depth, we demonise them less.
If we have better means to treat our pets with more natural products, isn't that worth knowing more about? If you enjoyed this episode and want to know more or help support the cause you can.

Larry Krohn IACP 2019 heads up our first of several interviews we had the honour of conducting at this years conference. What an amazing turnout it was too. With over 500 members in attendance, we got to see some amazing presenters and attendees.
No stranger to The Canine Paradigm, Larry Krohn is also known to many around the world. He is a generous Vlogger giving away so much material which has earned a following around the world.
Speaking of Larry and his vlogger efforts, his Youtube views have reached over 7 million views.
Prior ro coming to conference this year, Larry was just coaching in Scotland with another buddy, Duke Furgerson. We got to hear a little of the run down on what they were both doing over there. From the sounds of things, we could learn something from their practices.
A very popular trainer and a hell of a nice guy, we're sure you'll enjoy this episode as much as we did.

Only so many spoons to give is based on the theory of 10 spoons. This is a philosophy, that also represents how many fucks you may have to give in a day. So for example, if something you do takes energy away from you, that could be one or many spoons. However, if it's something you enjoy doing, it may add them back again.
We hope you enjoy this concept as a measure of self help. It may indicate when you need to slow down and work out what you have in reserve to make it through the day.

Habits of attention whores in ANOTHER episode we have now done in response to people in our industry acting poorly! We actually thought we may have been done for a while after episode 88 but no. So here we are once again.
The dog training industry is full of some of the most amazing people you could ever meet. Many of them are so generous and friendly with hearts of gold. But every yin has its yang which means there are some turds too. These are your every day attention whores. Sad people looking for love in all the wrong places.
We need to be doing a lot better for this industry. we have said that quite a lot now and while things are on the improve, there's more to be done.

Conversations with trainers in Melbourne happened as we were doing out first ever combined seminar thanks to Alex Edwards. If you don't know Alex, he's a buddy of our from Melbourne running his own training centre. Alex has hosted several trainers around Australia and the USA. He also shares our passion of improving our industry. His company is called, Refine Your Canine and we will link it below.
In the past, a lot of dog trainers have been very jealous of each other. They have spent too much energy trying to discredit their fellow industry operators. We've often addressed on the show how important it is to turn this around.
For our own good, we need to work together more and raise standards. It is happening but it's happening at a slow pace. There's an old joke that says that the only thing two dog trainers will agree on is what the third is doing wrong.
We need to stop thinking like this and it's promising to know there are people wanting to change these practices. It's a long blown out way of saying how much we appreciate Alex for supporting his own.
Dog trainers in Melbourne have really been investing in their education as have many of the other states. We loved having the time to meet many of the people who gave their time to come and see us.
Thank you to the trainers who came up to share their back stories on the show. It was a wonderful weekend we wont forget.

Pocket of rocks in a glass house come from the phrase, people who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. We're all guilty of it from time to time. Accusing others of the very things we do ourselves. However, some people don't realise the damage they are doing to their own reputation.
Of course it's a metaphor for judgemental hypocrites. The other problem here is that we often joke around about how it's the industry. If it is prolific in our industry, how are we sustaining such a bad average?
Gardening is supposed to promote growth, not to encourage warfare. Lets practice been gardeners instead. Grow things, be useful, encourage your neighbours to do the same.
Help your neighbourhood, be useful, if you see a problem go help fix it, don't just create more problems.

Do as I say not as I do is often a mantra echoed via teachers around the world. Sometimes, even parents will suggest this to their children, often for good reason. For example, a parent may drink alcohol which they are at the informed stage of life to do so. The parent would tell the child not to do the very behaviour they do for their own well-being.
However, the topic of this podcast came from our Facebook page and it relates to clients. Do as I say, not as I do is something you tell people to prevent them from making mistakes. We're talking about mistakes they can't live with and more from the dogs point of view.
Your client may see you doing something with your own dog and want to mimic your relationship. The problem for them is it may not reflect their ideals.
Our job as trainers is to give our clients the best relationship with their dog. This means we need to pay attention to the things that are most important to them. that way we are more successful at keeping dogs alive and in their original homes.

Interviewing Melanie Benware in this episode was for two reasons. One, to find out a little bit more about her and her business. Two, to discuss her role as President for the IACP.
If you haven't heard us speak of the IACP before, perhaps you are new to the show? This year we will be the official podcasters for the International Association of Canine Professionals.
As Mentioned above, Melanie has recently assumed the presidential role from our good friend, Tyler Muto.
Being the president in any organisation both comes with its advantages and its disadvantages. The main role of the president is not dissimilar than that of a ships captain. You need a great ship and a great crew to take care of your passengers.
Melanie also shares with us her role of becoming a professional dog trainer which is where all our hearts lie.

Interviewing Greg Tonkins has been on the cards for a while. A fellow Aussie, larakin and bushy from the outback. Greg is well known for several reasons, one of them being great at pig hunting and training pig dogs.
We wanted to speak with Greg about this as he is injecting a bit of a spin on an old tradition. Pig hunting has remained similar in it's training practices for many years , however Greg is looking to change that.
Greg also chats with us about the negative community feeling towards pig hunting. One of these issues is that people believe these are monster dogs that eat little babies and kill everything. They also have a incorrect image of pigs.
What people fail to realise is that are describing any dog with poor breeding and socialisation practices. Pig dogs in many cases are mixed breed dogs that are also family dogs. They do have a biological capacity for pig hunting, however it still needs to be trained.
We also talk about the negative aspect pigs are having on farm land and the environment. many don't realise they are an introduced pest and in some cases very dangerous. Pig hunting does help to reduce the numbers and return the endangered species.
There's a lot more we can tell you about Greg so we will look forward to having a chat with him in the future. We are looking forward to our next interview.

Ending dog world friendships can be a tough thing to do. Quite often these people are considered to be our family. They are people we may know very well and have been a part of each others lives for years. In many ways it can be like we are in a marriage.
It's often not any easy thing to do to walk away from people you consider friends, family or maybe even real relatives. However, sometimes you need may need to. Relationships can become so toxic that it's not good for either party to be involved in such situations.
You may need to do a little active soul searching yourself to discover if you are the problem. Sometimes, we point the bone of blame conveniently at others before we look within. If there's often ongoing issues, you have to look at what is the common denominator.
An effective strategy in improving and maintaining good friendships is great communication. People can't read minds and assumptions are considered the mother of all stuff ups.
Fortunately for us, our dogs will still love us and that's a great resolution at the end of a tough day. We still need our friendships and our relationships. They still provide us with good health, good opportunity and love.
It's better overall for us if we continue to enjoy our social interactions

Whelping, raising and training puppies is an important conversation in most professional training circles. We know it comes with some backlash at times too by groups who want to see more rescue options.
Rescue is an important choice, however it should still be a choice and not a gun to the head obligation like many other opinions out there. You all know we support rescue. We encourage it on most levels and promote many of the good people doing it.
Likewise, we promote and encourage good breeding practices. Without them, we are losing the ability to produce sound dogs for valuable social roles.
We also introduce Geoff Madgwick to the show who invented a new whelping box called Whelpmate. Glenn contacted geoff a while back when he was expecting puppies from his French Bulldog. Geoff was kind enough to loan his invention so it could be tested and the results were very positive.
Whelping puppies is a tricky and intricate process that requires some thought when you plan to be involved. It's true that dogs have been having puppies all by themselves for many years without our interference. It's also advisable to be as much hands off as you can be, however you should know when to step in.
So if we are asked what dog is best for an application in regards to puppies and rescues, we agree that you should consider either. You need to consider your role requirements, your patience for pups etc.
If you have a need for an adult dog, go searching through the rescue organisations.
Further details
To find out more about Geoff, can look him up at his official website, Whelpmate

Jay Jack GRC update. Always wonderful to have our close personal friend Jay Jack back on the show. Being a fellow podcaster and one of our inspirations in creating our own show, we wanted to catch up.
On top of that, Jay will be in Australia this coming July 2019 to speak more about GRC. As we discussed on the show, this is a great dog sport that allows almost any dog type access. There are of course some conditions that may exclude dogs later on, however the entry levels are amazing.
If you don't know who Jay is by now, he hosts his own show called GRC dog talk. Prior to that he was involved in a very successful podcast with fellow trainer and also friend of ours, Chad Mackin.
Jay is also a master in Brazilian jiu Jitsu, where he run his gym in Maine USA. This is also GRC headquarters.
When you hear Jay talk about his beginning in the dog world and how he shaped his career into becoming GRC, he attributes them to what he learned from his father.
You can hear Jay talk about that and more in episodes of Dog training conversations with Chad and many more great pearls of wisdom.
We can't talk about a Jay Jack GRC update without mentioning our great friend, Jasmin Whiting, AKA Sweats. Jas is running and managing GRC in Australia and is bringing out Jay for his second tour.

Our thoughts on group classes came about from a show listeners who asked a variation of good questions. Some of those questions were in relation to how to run the best type of class. Another question was, what would that look like?
Everyone has their take on what the ideal group class should like. Some prefer tradition, some prefer to make the trial orientated and some like to have their spin.
Good classes come from good management. If you establish a great environment, you will have people captivated and wanting to learn more. However, there's more to it than just being organised and running classes.
You need to be well educated yourself. If you're a team, that means that the team should be up skilled as well. Know your topic. Craft it like a master craftsman and give your clients access to the very best information.
classes should consist of all relevant classes from puppy all the way to advanced obedience. However, as mentioned, these are our thoughts on group classes.
Some training centres prefer to makes their classes more about socialization. Rather than focus on just routine, they focus on the benefit of having a dog who can cope with pressures of the world.
So we have shared our thoughts on group classes, we would appreciate you sharing yours. After you listen to the podcast, jump on to our Facebook group and fill us in on you perfect class.

Trial preparedness and nerves is something all dog sport competitors go through. In fact most people are nervous in trials. There's something about putting it all on the line that scares the bravest of us.
However, it shows us where our preparedness has taken us and gives us insight on what we need to do next. It's normal to be nervous in trials as we are being judged by our peers. It's also because we take pride in our work and we want to do well.
Trial preparedness and nerves was an episode we wanted to speak more on after observing people in competition. Some people talk a lot, others not at all. Sometimes they become emotional by crying or being angry at their performance.
Some helpful measures before trialling are, getting plenty of rest, meditating, talking about how you feel. Everyone has their way of dealing with their own nerves.
Another important point is to practice the routine until it feels natural. Almost like you could do it blindfolded. Just by following these processes we can eliminate how nervous in trials we become.
Trialling does have an upside as well in that we can experience great joy and relief. We can also celebrate in victory if it goes our way. Trial preparedness and nerves is an episode that explores both the highs and the lows.
No matter how a competitor does, we should always support and encourage anyone who comes out on the field. It's always easier to speak of something from the other side of the barrier.

Cannabalism in the indutry is also about a lack of support in the industry for each other. We find it incredibly frustrating that small groups of people just seem to want to go it alone. Can you imagine how much better it may be if we joined forces? Still doing our own thing but using our collectove might to speak up on issues. not just the small ones but the big ticket items.
We need to be better than this. The lack of support in the industry is honestly alarming. The dog sport groups being the worst. When we do talk about the cannabalism in the industry, it starts with many of these groups and works its way around.
Our groups don't need to be best friends. We don't all need to hang out with each other and yes, we can agree to disagree. All of us need to think about what's happening outside our own pettiness. Who's lobbying against us and what are they planning on taking away or stopping next?
These issues never go away and they will be with our children, however it's what we do now that makes the difference. Other groups never rest. They never leave the wheel unmanned and they have far more people willing to take that wheel.
What's even more surpring is that each side thinks they are the good guys. Each side feels they are doing the right thing. All side feels they are the champions of the dogs. Each side believes they are saving lives.

Glenn Cooke knows that lack of support in the industry will be our downfall and wont allow that at Canine Evolution

Urban myths in training. there's literally hundreds of them. Some are funny, some are silly and some are harmful.
The harmful dog training myths are the problem ones as they are passed on to people by professionals. They then take what their told and tell others and so on.
Where do these myths come from? Who starts? Does anyone fact check? Dog training myths will always be around, however we should now start to put out some facts.
There's not just urban myths in training, there are myths in all fields. I'm sure most of us have had a dad or uncle tell us a few old wives tales AND we believed them.
Remember the one your mum would say? If you pull a face and the wind blows, your face will stay that way!
Some of them were even classic ghost stories that we told to scare each other around camp fires
We had some fun with urban myths in training as there are some silly dog training myths out there. We hope you see the silly side in it as well and share the irony behind the story

Trainers making terrible videos does not portray our industry well. It creates ammunition for the parties already with agendas. In this pod-cast, we discuss our concerns around the videos but also ask what could be done better?
How do you convince a fellow trainer that their work that they believe is good is in fact, not? The question that needs to be asked is, if it was you, what would change your mind?
Trainer videos fall into a lot of categories. Some are complete marketing nonsense, some are highly valuable, educational material and then there are just bombs.
Unfortunately there is no way to stop trainers making terrible videos. we just have to hope that if they are approached by a peer review group that they may pay attention.
Hate groups are not the answer either. Having more uneducated numb-skulls chiming in on the witch hunt doesn't help. In fact that can have and has had terrible consequences.
Education is always the best option if you have a receptive candidate. Be patient and keep offering to point out what better training options are available.
There are some amazing training video out in the community. High value, generous free information by skilled artists giving away information gratis.
You have to dig around the sewer to find the pearls, however it is worth it and sometimes you can have someone send you the link.
Send it to some trusted colleagues first. Ask them to give honest constructive feedback and if they tell you it's not great, listen to their advise.

Who governs the animal law makers is a question most of us should be asking. It's important to know who writes our laws and why? Who are the key stakeholders the benefit from the news laws or even many of the old ones? Is it some of us and if so who are they, or do we all benefit? Is it for the good of the community or for the popularity and relevancy of a politician?
As you can see above, there's already a list of questions that can be asked and should be. For many of us in the dog training industry there are already invasive dog laws. But hold on your hats, as there's more on the horizon and there will be not long after that.
What happens when they write all these new laws? Do they redact the old ones or do they just remain to linger on.
We believe that when dog laws are being suggested that there should be open community consultation. Not just the in crowd or the people that are preferred. This might not be the case but it feels like it as there are times when the only way you find out about them is after the fact.
After reading all that, don't you feel it's important to know who governs the animal law makers? And wouldn't it be appreciated to know they serve all of us too.

Greyhounds and horses with Jedda and Georgie is the longest title we believe we have had on our show before. This podcast may raise some eyebrows in some circles as both ladies are involved in the racing industry. Not unlike most industries, there is speculation and often untruths around what people think and feel. This occurs more often when people feel strong emotions about something they see as aversive.
It's true that animal racing industries have had dark past and unscrupulous people. Those people are seeping into all the cracks however and it has to be identified as a people problem. People cause problems in rescue industries as well. Well meaning, big hearted people can be huge issues without even knowing it.
Greyhounds and horses with Jedda and Georgie is about what jedda Ctlack and Georgie Harrington bring to the industry. Both ladies are ethical, dedicated caring individuals who love their dogs and horses and want the best for them. they also want better standards overall.
When we have these types of people in the racing industries, we know we have people who are there to care. We also need to be aware that some of these animals want to and enjoy the thrill of the race.
Some people believe that an ideal life for an animal is a sedentary lifestyle. Laying on the couch getting fat, is not the life an active animal desires and it's not what their genes beckon for.
But neither is cruelty and mistreatment. Or role is custodians of the animals we care for must be one of love, compassion and respect.

Asked to leave a dog club may not be the same as being kicked out of a dog club. Sometimes it feels like the same thing, however their may be valid reasons why the club cannot except you. They may be full, you may not be suitable or your dog may not be suitable or it could be conflict.
Not all clubs are the same though. Some are very transparent, some are deceptive. Many are run by dedicated and hard working people, some are run by people who are small in many ways other than their ego.Groucho Marx once stated that he wouldn't want to be a member of any club that excepted him as a member. Sometimes it's best to avoid clubs with problematic people. This will prevent you having to be asked to leave a dog club without knowing why.
Not all people who apply for membership have an immediate right in many clubs. Many agree that this is often a good thing as some people who want to join may have silly agendas too. Therefore it may not be the club but the individual who is a wrong fit.
In any event, some times it's best to move one rather than force the issue of being kicked out of a dog club. It may also encourage you to start your own and recruit your own suitable members.

The two wolves expanded is the tale of the two wolves that many of us have most likely heard. We each have two wolves fighting for our soul. A good wolf or a bad wolf or a white wolf and a dark wolf. The question is asked, "which wolf would win the fight?" The answer being, the one that we feed.
In this episode, Birdy O'Sheedy joins Glenn Cooke once again to expand on the tale of the two wolves. Some times we tend to hear the abbreviated versions of great stories. This can and unfortunately often does leave out some of the most valued content which makes more sense.
This is why Birdy was so passionate about the explanation of expanding into the deeper story. Why the two wolves need each other and how we need to feed them both.
The two wolves expanded may give you a better understanding of the importance of a balanced life rather than just one or the other. Can you think of times where you have needed mix of opposites to balance out a situation in your life?

Get comfortable saying No. Sounds pretty easy right? Well according to therapists it's quite a challenge for some people to do. They get nervous, they are overwhelmed with emotions and thoughts, it's really quite, uncomfortable.
So how do we bite the bullet and do it? Fortunately we have Birdie O'Sheedy on the show today to discuss this very topic
Many people find it ok and are comfortable not saying yes, however they still avoid saying the word, no.
Do people feel they will be rejected? Is it something they struggled with during adolescence? Do they feel rewarded by avoiding the word?
On the other side, what happens to us when we avoid saying words like no? How does it effect us and our behaviour long term? This is why we discuss that people need to get comfortable saying NO.
We also get to find out during the show that Birdy, Narelle and Glenn are planning on running seminars. Focusing on the body, mind and behaviour of dogs and owners. This can bring about more pleasure in owning and keeping a dog in the home.

Bart Bellon on remote trainers is a story about Bart and Michael Bellon and their development of the Chameleon. The Bellon's were involved in the early concept of remote trainers with Charles Martin and then bought the company.
Bart goes on to explain what the difference is with a Martin systems compared to other models on the market.
As many of you already know, The Canine Paradigm doesn't shy away from talking about everything. We don't condone stupid training or animal cruelty, even though some view remote trainers in this light.
Many feel it's important to have an open mind, open heart approach to training. We also feel that knowing all side of the story makes the story complete.
For us, we felt it important to have Bart Bellon on remote trainers as he is one of the world authorities. Inventor and user for people in our industry, he and Michael have a sound idea on the application and design.
We know that some people will always have an opinion based in fear and in grape vine stories. We only recommend that real investigation with industry professionals at least be explored.

From one legendary trainer to another
Living with a reactive dog can be difficult and for some, upsetting. When most people think of reactivity, they are immediately drawn to aggression.
Reactivity is beyond the scope of just aggression as it is really about how any species responds to stimuli. For example, you may have a dog that is very quiet normally, except when a cat is present. In this example, the focus is now on predatory drive rather than that of fear based aggression.
Many forms of reactivity are associated with frustration and sometimes the end result is different than initially believed.
A reactive dog draws a lot of attention to itself and the owner which is where the emotions come into play. They are more than likely to be avoided and excluded from social play. Many times this is the best outcome as these dogs can be aggressive.
In any event, if you are living with a reactive dog, you should be seeking advise from a creditable behaviour expert.
Their assessment and advise can often correct the behavioural pathway and improve the relationship between you and the dog.
Glenn Cooke can help you with reactivity and aggression at Canine Evolution
Pat Stuart will get you on the right path at Operant canine

Customer expectations can be varied. What we mean by that is that some customers have reasonable views and others, well they don't.
Some have an expectation, however they fail to maintain the most simplistic obligation.
We all find this frustrating. Anyone in any industry does when you know that the only way results will be maintained or improved is with cooperation.
The expectations of customers can be over the top, unachievable and bizarre. The only time it's a problem is when you or any industry professional allows the belief to continue.
If they are consulted well at the start and in easy to digest writing, both parties have clarity.
If you were not clear and elusive just to get the sale, you leave yourself open to being challenged. The reason why is because you did not meet your customer expectations.
Sometimes just when you think you have a handle on it, along comes the next customer. It's not always easy to get a read on people but you need to try your best.
Speak clearly, with honesty and integrity. Listen when you need to and do what you can to help.

Getting to the point with askholes is really based on two separate points that we cleverly combined for the title. So how did we come up with concept? Jordan Peterson, our close personal friend was in town discussing his book, The 12 Rules for life. During his talk, he focused on rule 10, Be precise in your speech. Of the several topics, Jordan told the crowd how we often tell stories but fail to get to the point.
Not getting to the point can be frustrating. Like watching a movie that has no plot and it leaves you asking questions at the end.
Want to know what's more frustrating? Askholes. An askhole is someone that asks for your advise and then does the opposite.
They also ask everyone else in town too while they continue to ignore their advise or worse, messing it up.
Not getting to the point and being an askhole each have their frustrations.

Interviewing Pat Nolan was a great honour for us as it is with all our guests. It always adds to the polish when you have someone who is considered a cornerstone in our industry. Pat Nolan is a name deeply connected to the canine industry mainly through his long career in gun dogs.
Now when people think of Pat, they consider the early work he contributed to our modern day scent work.
This was one of the many interesting points of discussion we had in this podcast. starting with puppy imprinting and moving into the career of a working dog.
Many of the great operators in this industry have gained their ideas from people like Pat Nolan.

Interviewing Dallas Burkevics was something we have both wanted to do for quite some time. The reason for this is that Dallas has been a long serving rescue organiser, with a wealth of experience.
Many people don't know and don't understand how much effort people in rescue go to. The time, energy and effort required is like planning a rock concert.
The other major point behind the rescue fence is that these people deal with the dogs many people discard like trash. They welcome them into their own homes, have those same home destroyed and then do it again.
They work full time jobs, have families, no social life because they are organising these very same dogs. People like Dallas Burkevics have hearts of gold, however it plays havoc in their lives at times.
But if someone doesn't rise up to take on the overflow of discarded dogs, what happens to them? The men and women, mainly women, in the rescue organisations need our help and support.
They need funds and donations to pay for their bills. They make no money from this themselves. It costs them money to do it.
It was our great pleasure to be Interviewing Dallas Burkevics and we hope that it helps raise some much needed awareness.

Now he's back and we get down to chatting about some odd trends.
People are bragging about how they don't train their dogs to be obedient. Some of the the points may sound quite silly, however we go into detail with Tyler to discuss various meanings behind the claim.
Tyler is a very well educated guy and he is highly intellectual and very pragmatic. Having just finished his term as president for the IACP, Tyler is now focusing his energies on his next project, Consider the Dog.
Apart from all his accomplishments, Tyler is an all round good guy, a great ambassador for training, defender of the balanced community and one of our close personal friends.

The flow state is a comfortable state that lies right between boredom and anxiety. We know when we are in a state of flow when we get to the other side with ease. Time felt like it just zoomed on past us. This is not only a dog training lifestyle, it's a lifestyle.
If you can adapt a flow state into you work, you hobby, your workout times and more, you will feel less anxious and more fulfilled. This is why people practice a little bit every day when they want to see improvement and growth.
Rather than just cramming and feeling over worked, they focus on easy and enjoyable increments. Just enough to push through barriers but not enough to feel overwhelmed. Every day a little more. just focusing on the objective.
Most people who have hobbies understand this state of being as they are doing something they enjoy without the stress.
Hopefully you are in flow state with your training.

Nicky Butler is a UK based dog trainer that grabbed ours and many others attention from a social media video. The video message highlighted what many of us have been thinking for quite some time. The nice thing was that Nicky took time to sit for a while and consider the content.
The message conveys a simple fact often overlooked. we all love dogs. All of us! However, there's often controversy about who's doing it right and the politics hijack the main objectives.
We all need to be more thoughtful about this topic. We need to think about how much time is actually worth arguing about it compared to getting on with work. Cherry picked, pseudo science and wounded emotions should never be used as ammunition in any basis.
There is a wise saying that suggests that the left wing and the right wing belong to the same bird. Flight is not possible when one is independent of the other.
Interviewing Nicky Butler gave us a bit more insight into how people in other countries are feeling. It also describes the ethos of the individuals and the community.

Drop your anchor is the title by our adopted show co-host Birdy O'Sheedy. For those of you joining us, Birdy is a clinical psychologist who additionally coaches people on living better with dogs.
Birdy has two business's with the same name but a clever different meaning. Pause in life for her human work and Paws in life for her human / pet work.
The title drop your anchor is about teaching us to stand up tall, dig your heels in.
Glenn and Pat thought it had a different meaning and in some references it does, but not the one Birdy uses.

So as you can see, it's important to ask, where are we going?
We also discuss our concern around people, fellows trainers not crediting their mentors. They make out that they found their knowledge buried in a field and they are the only ones who know it. Time to question that fool.

Start the year with a plan. Start everything with a plan or at least try to. That way you get to do what you need to do by design, rather than just wing it.
There's a saying that says, "plan your work, then work your plan". Glenn thought it may have been Vince Lombardi, American football super coach and philosopher, however it was Napoleon Hill. There's even another variation stated by Margaret Thatcher, former British Prime Minister.
The episode at large is about people making New Years resolutions. We're suggesting that it should be a year round resolution by being a little bit better that yesterday.
We found that by being incremental and not over doing it, learning takes on a better function overall.
Start your 2019 year off by, continuing the good work you did in 2018 and not having too high expectations. So, start your year with a plan and how can you go wrong?

It's me isn't it? The words most trainers hear after they have spent a little time working with clients. Yes, it's you. It's not a terrible process for clients to come to terms with either.
Once your clients accept they have had a major impact on their dogs education, or lack of, we can progress.
After all, our job is not to judge or embarrass them. We are there to serve and coach and to improve the overall relationship. When this happens, true language develops and it's a beautiful thing to behold.
No more excuses, minimal problems and manageable dogs who understand you. What you telling them is now clear and they can hear you.
If you're having trouble with your training, reach out to a reputable trainer.
Pat can be reached at Operant Canine
Glenn can be reached at Canine Evolution
Now instead of saying, I's me isn't it? I'm the problem. You start to say, I'm the solution.

Michael Ellis is a name known very well to many of the people in the dog training community. If you have been on youtube or Leerburg looking for a trainer series, you would no doubt come across Michael's work.
Both Glenn and Pat have been waiting for some time now to speak with Michael and we had our prayers answered
Apart from being an all round great guy, Michael has been teaching students all over the world.

Positive First is a descriptive term Glenn Cooke announced earlier in one of our episodes. He feels better describes what the Balanced dog training community have been trying to represent.
Naturally, there are counter arguments that it doesn't represent the industry based on the correct scientific terms. There was additional points that it could be perceived as to closely associated with positive only.
Glenn and Pat start to unpack the success of starting with positive reinforcement and then re assessing. This way if you start positive and can remain within that system of training, there is no problem. If you need to move along to adding aversive, then you can implement the LIMA system.
If you have never heard of LIMA, it is the acronym for, Least Invasive Minimally Aversive. it does a very nice job of describing a better selection pathway for training when using the Operant system.
Moments to be proud of was a hard episode for both of us to record. For Pat it was difficult to relive something that caused a lot of raw emotion. For Glenn it was a high degree of shock to hear the story.
This story unfolds around a young boy and his mum that Pat helped train an assistance dog. Although it sounds simple enough, it came with some heavy baggage for everyone.
The story is still far from finished, however there have been some incredible breakthroughs, both via a mothers love and Pats persistence and compassion.
Mental illness is a serious issue that has serious implications requiring the right people for treatment. It also carries a stigma as people don't know how to behave or what to say. The best thing you can do though is be supportive and not judgemental. Learn more about it and how you can better help.
We have done several episode now on mental health and we will definitely do more in the future for both humans and dogs. This is why having a contact like Birdy O'Sheedy is so helpful and healthy as she understand both fields.
If you don't feel great and the world is getting difficult, speak to someone. You're not a burden. You're not invalid. You have people that love you and people that do want to be supportive.

If you haven't listened to an episode with Birdy yet, it's important to note that she is a practising psychologist. Birdy works in both the human and pet dog realms and has fast attracted attention based on her genuine results.
In this episode, we discuss the realms of anxiety and how it starts and what it looks like. It should be noted that we always recommend dealing with suitably trained professionals prior to working on this.
We get to learn about the term, transgenerational transmissions and how that creates a transfer of anxiety.

Getting out of the shit, although a nasty sounding title, has something relevant to do with Pat. Whilst walking through the desert one day on patrol, he got himself in a shitty situation.
However, the main focus point in this show is, how to say goodbye to a dog for behavioural reasons. This is a predicament that many of us Professional trainers have had to assess and help make the right choice. We also unpack a little bit about the difference between decision and choice.
The show gets a little deep and turns a few corners, however we had an interesting chat.

Meagan Karnes, otherwise known as the Collared Scholar was in Australia running a series of seminars. Glenn and Pat had the good fortune of sitting down with her to get some insight into her origin story.
Prior to Meagan throwing her hat in the ring of dog training, her role was a little different. Or maybe a lot different.
Meagan told us the reasons why she became so frustrated prior to starting her new career. This is why she changed her stars in the first place. She also discusses her dogs, how she came to have them and the people who inspired her.
It was great to watch her work and introduce us to her style of training, which has hints of other remarkable training mentors. we also enjoyed her infectious laugh and enthusiasm into helping transform relationships between dog and owners.
We also spoke briefly about puppy raising which we have spoken about here as well in the picking and raising puppies episode
Meagan has her own website and on-line training programs that you can find by clicking here
Diagnosing problems in training came from points our listeners were posting in our Facebook group. Given that anyone who has owned or trained or been around dogs knows that there are always going to be problems. We figure it's best to identify what they are and how we can reduce or completely extinguish them.
In addition to that, it's our 50th show! We are happy to celebrate with you and appreciate all the love and support from people all over the world.
We have a lot more great content to come on top of what we have already so buckle in and get ready for a wild ride.
More sweat, more laugh, more education and more Glenn and Pat.
A couple of good episodes to listen to in relation to this episode would be, selecting and raising puppies. If you haven't heard the box episode, that's almost a TCP staple.
In closing, Pat started a new client business called Operant Canine. If you want to book some extra time with him you can find him on Facebook.
Dealing with difficult clients and people is a show we have danced around for a while but decided to finally do it. Anyone in business or life, has moments where discussing issues with people can be difficult.
We all have different ways and recommendations of managing these outcomes to attempt to better resolve the outcome.
Glenn and Pat share a few of many experiences over the years of dealing with some of the more memorable people and how they worked on the outcome.
Conflict resolution is a big business in this day and age with books, seminars, pod-casts and more. Add animals to that mix and you can sometimes be looking at a bigger explosion.
An earlier episode we did, http://www.thecanineparadigm.com/2018/07/18/episode-36-keeping-sane-in-the-dog-industry/ helps a little for trainers and industry people when they need a time out.
You can also check in with our resident psychologist, Birdie O'Sheedy for some back to sanity assistance.
Jerry Bradshaw is known around the world as the father of PSA, (Protection Sports Association). Jerry is also well known through his successful training company, Tarheel canine.
The Tarheel team have been supplying and training Police and law enforcement agencies with dogs that will suit the needs for tactical street work.
Along with that, Jerry has been travelling the world lecturing and teaching on canine behaviour. He has his own podcast called Controlled Aggression and also a tactical manual by the same name.
If you have been a listener of the show for anytime you would know that both Glenn and Pat are involved in the sport of PSA and Pat was largely involved with successfully setting up PSA in Australia, forming a club, Iron Fist PSA with Glenn and trialling dogs.
You may even recall us speaking with Shawn and Janet Edwards in an earlier episode who have worked for, decoy for and judge for Jerry.
Dog parks dystopia or utopia came about after Glenn had a small rant on social responsibilities and then Pat re-listened to the episode to correct a point on dog parks.
As Pat has a local community dog park area that functions well, he felt the need to makes some valid contributions about how well good people and their dogs behave in some areas.
Like everything, there are good and bad dog parks, so the important take home message is to ensure good research is conducted prior to taking your dog there and coming home with a bad experience.
We unpack a few topics through this discussion and it goes around in a few different directions, however the modus operandi is always around being responsible and following a good duty of care when out in public with your dog.

Glenn & Pat discuss the social responsibility issue with people making poor examples of themselves and particularly their breed when out in public spaces. A lot of people want to be out in public spaces with their dog, enjoying the social environment, however there are people who are very vague about their dog and mistake excitability for aggression and problematic behaviour.
As always we are advocates of training and we encourage all people who own dogs to become more educated about teaching better form of engagement so you can really enjoy your dog without being in fear of it risking public safety or an altercation with another dog.
We also mention that Jay Jack's SR test through his GRC program is a very easy, very accessible platform for all dog owners, especially the ones that need it, to give them a platform to help in providing a working outlet.
Hot seat stories from the IACP, comes directly from our time in Florida where we got to sit in a room with some of the many amazing people we know or met along the way at the conference.
We got to share stories, listen to origins of other trainers, share some laughs and generally hang out with amazing people while Jay Jack was heckling in the background.
As we have mentioned, one of the amazing experiences of travelling is meeting new people and making new friends from around the world as we have had the good fortune of doing and by having a conduit such as The Canine Paradigm and other industry shows, we can reach out to people all over the world to help bring our industry closer together.
We would like to thank, George Kittridge, Emma Grae Murdock, Bill Church, Josh Moran, Byron Flores, Jay Jack, Chad Mackin, Alex Edwards and Jas Whiting for a great session.
Get ready to get sweaty.
Glenn and Pat and a whole bunch of sweaty Aussies have returned from the IACP conference in Tampa Bay Florida with a whole bunch of stories and a podcast that was done in Glenn's hotel room that will be following soon from the IACP wrap up.
We meet with some amazing people and had an awesome time networking and sharing stories and experiences, dancing on the beach, getting intoxicated at the gala and generally having a lot of fun together.
We had a lot of amazing feedback on the show from a lot of USA residents and several of the Canadian crew that were too. We cannot express our appreciation from you guys for following our show and offering such supportive feedback. it was overwhelming.
We were also advised that we should be making a Patreon account, which we have done to help sponsor the show.
Much love again to all those who make time to listen to our podcast.
More questions, more answers. As we didn't have time to cover the questions asked of us in the last episode, we agreed that it was only reasonable to do another session so we could make our way through more from our listeners so enjoy Questions from our audience Part 2.
This episode gets a little preachy but not without good cause. There are factions in our industry that are not cooperating with each other and it's not due to any good reason other than ego getting in the way and preventing good relationships from occurring and productivity.
As an industry we need to look at more reasons to come together, not for more reasons to separate. we are small and vulnerable when we argue and fight.
We like to acknowledge the people who listen to our show because without you it would just be two Johno's sitting in a room entertaining each other. In this episode we answer some listener questions with TCP pearls of wisdom.
Thanks to everyone who took a moment to write in and again to those who provide feedback and send words of support to let us know what you like, what made you laugh, made you cry, what's important and much more.
we want to do more of this in the future so please feel free to join us in our forums to discuss important topics OR even let us know about one you may be aware of.
We get to speak with one of Americas top dog training Vloggers and all round nice guy, Larry Krohn about his origins and his book. Larry has an amazing following and fan base of frustrated dog owners who he has shed some wisdom to in many of his on-line recordings.
We also find out that Larry is also a federal agent for homeland security, so he has to train dogs around his very important full time job.
An incredibly nice guy and an asset to our industry, we hope to speak more with Larry in the future.
Dissecting ego is an episode we have wanted to look at for some time now as it can be a troublesome emotion that many of us find damages opportunity, relationships and more. This week we get our resident psychologist, Birdie O'Sheedie back for her 3rd time on the show to help us look at what this little monster is and how to keep it under better control.
If you find that people start to disappear from your life, perhaps it's time to start thinking about looking within to make some small or large changes to enjoy those relationships rather than continue to drive them away.
Another origin story of two people we know very well and love. Brent Dry and Cat Saunders are well established in the Australian canine community and are ingrained in the hearts and minds of many people both here and abroad for good reason.
Both Brent & Cat have been supporting the industry in a very big way by being very inclusive in their approach to people and training styles and attending many of the training seminars and learning opportunities around Australia.
If you're in Melbourne, or even if you're not, make some time to catch up with Brent & Cat.

While Forrest and Josh were in town and we had a live audience, we all thought it would be a great idea to have some beers and talk about our training lives and some deep thoughts in between on our seminar panel. Discussions were intense and a little emotion came to the surface at times, however it was a great time to have a room full of passionate people sit with each other and have the comfort to reminisce on why we came to be here, why we stay and how we can help to look after others and ourselves.
Thank you to everyone for participating in this event. we hope to do more of these in the future.
Forrest Micke and Josh Moran who have both been on the show before and are no strangers to many Australian folks who have been to their seminars, bought their DVD's through Leerburg and have done online coaching are now on Australian shores ready for their first joint seminar in Dural NSW.
In this episode we talk about what's important in training while having a little fun together which we always tend to do.
Something slightly different from our usual show however, very relevant as it's something that has an effect on all most people at one stage or another. The dog industry can be exciting and challenging however, it can also be intimidating and reckless at times as egos are often unchecked. Keeping Sane should be at the top of your priorities to maintain happiness.
It's important to not ignore the signs of feeling burnt out and then knowing what to do before serious health issues start effecting your quality of life.
In any event, we always encourage people to seek out suitable health professionals at anytime, for any reason if you're feeling overwhelmed for longer periods than normal.
As promised, we follow up with our good friend Jasmine Whiting to find out how she's been getting on with life and her career in the dog training industry.
Jas, has been getting busy getting on with life with some big goals in her future and some big ones she's already either made headway on or is getting into them now.
We're impressed with how far she's come in a short time.
Great to chat with our mate Forrest Micke who is not far away from returning to Australian shores for another educational super show. Forrest took a small break from the industry to catch up with other interests so we spoke about that in some detail.
Forrest has been well know in the industry as a very successful artistic trainer with his own flair in engagement, particularly in heeling, of which he has released several videos through Leerburg.
We catch up with our old mate Josh Moran who can now be officially adopted into the 'Australian sons' mantle as he's about to head back here for his 3rd seminar tour.
Josh talks about his steps into starting his career, his time with Leerburg, his own dogs, his passion and his loves.
In this episode we get down to the topic of communication and how that can effectively enhance or breakdown by the very systems implemented between handler / trainer / dog.
Glenn & Pat and a whole bunch of awesome people got to trial our dogs in 2018 official PSA trial under judge Shawn Edwards so we talk about how it went down, all the emotions over the 2 days and what we need to work on next.

It been a big 3 weeks of seminars with Chad and Jay, however Jay already headed home and Chad dropped in with Pat prior to the big flights back to the US. We got to reminisce a little about weeks gone by and just discuss thoughts about what's been happening in the dog training industry in general.
There's a lot going on in today's shows. For starters, we test out a new musical intro the The Canine Paradigm that Pat has been working on himself before we cross over to PSA legends, Shawn & Janet Edwards in the USA to discuss with them how they started in their respective dog training careers and what lead them into their passion of PSA judges and decoys.
Shawn is also known in the decoy world as the Deadpool decoy for his artistic portrayal of Deadpool and all the shenanigans that go with it.
While he is still in the country, we grabbed Jay Jack to further elaborate his theory on the layered stress model that he and Chad Mackin refer to. Join us for a fun session with an entertaining breakdown on how it works and what it means to owners so they can better understand why their dog may have reacted
The awesome foursome are all together to discuss life, dogs, training and cockatoos. Jay and Chad were kind enough to hang back after a full days seminar to do a show with us in front of an audience.

Definitions exist that trainers and professionals use in the industry to describe a situation or a training term. Some times the definition is used with slight variation, however these are terms that you will often hear and what they mean.
In Episode 10, we have our friend and resident psychologist, Birdie O'Sheedy drop back into the studio to talk with us on how we can take steps in dealing with the emotional grief of losing a beloved pet.
In Episode 9 we chat with Andrew Clark, who has had a long serving career in the canine industry starting as a corrections dog handler, local laws ranger with a local council and running his own safe dog handling courses for Government and professionals.
