Episode 78: Urban myths in training
30 mei 2019 · 1 uur 3 min
Urban myths in training. there's literally hundreds of them. Some are funny, some are silly and some are harmful. Lees meer
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

Episode 77: Trainers making terrible videos
25 mei 2019 · 1 uur 6 min
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? Lees meer
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.

Episode 76: Who governs the animal law makers
16 mei 2019 · 1 uur 8 min
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? Lees meer
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.

Episode 75: Greyhounds and horses with Jedda and Georgie
11 mei 2019 · 1 uur 17 min
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. Lees meer
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.

Episode 74: Asked to leave a dog club
1 mei 2019 · 1 uur
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. Lees meer
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.

Episode 73: The two wolves expanded
20 april 2019 · 1 uur 23 min
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. Lees meer
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?

Episode 72: Get comfortable saying NO
14 april 2019 · 1 uur 4 min
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. Lees meer
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.
Birdy can be contacted here for dogs and here for humans

Episode 71: Bart Bellon on remote trainers
3 april 2019 · 1 uur 35 min
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. Lees meer
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.

Episode 70: Living with a reactive dog
29 maart 2019 · 1 uur 12 min
Living with a reactive dog can be difficult and for some, upsetting. When most people think of reactivity, they are immediately drawn to aggression. Lees meer
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

Episode 69: Customer expectations
22 maart 2019 · 58 min
Customer expectations can be varied. What we mean by that is that some customers have reasonable views and others, well they don't. Lees meer
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.

Episode 68: Getting to the point with Askholes
7 maart 2019 · 1 uur 1 min
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. Lees meer
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.

Episode 67: Interviewing Pat Nolan
27 februari 2019 · 1 uur 15 min
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. Lees meer
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.

Episode 66: Interviewing Dallas Burkevics
20 februari 2019 · 1 uur 24 min
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. Lees meer
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.

Episode 65: Tyler Muto Round 2
13 februari 2019 · 1 uur 7 min
Tyler Muto Round 2. If you remember last time we had Tyler on out show, like many of guests, he got to tell us his origins. If you don't recall his original interview, go here Lees meer
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.
We really enjoyed having Round 2 with Tyler Muto and we are looking forward to round 3.
Hopefully you enjoyed it as much as we did.

Episode 64: Interviewing Mike Suttle
7 februari 2019 · 1 uur 26 min

Episode 63: The Flow state
30 januari 2019 · 1 uur 23 min
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. Lees meer
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.

Episode 62: Interviewing Nicky Butler
23 januari 2019 · 1 uur 8 min
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. Lees meer
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.

Episode 61: Drop you Anchor
16 januari 2019 · 1 uur 24 min
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. Lees meer
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.
Anyone having a hard time developing a relationship with their dog would benefit immensely from speaking with Birdy. She has a very pragmatic approach to her work and is constantly looking at improving her own knowledge and understanding.

Episode 60: Where are we going?
10 januari 2019 · 1 uur 10 min
Where are we going? It's a good question to ask yourself every now and then to confirm you are planning your direction. If you fail to plan, you plan to fail, so it's important to know these things. Lees meer
Glenn and Pat talk about what we are doing on Patreon and how it is helping to create a future. it's a future on where we all what The Canine Paradigm to head in.
More education, more entertainment, much more laughs. We get a lot of our ideas from you the audience. We listen to your own stories. The troubles you have, the enjoyment in your training, the things you love and the things you loath.
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.

Episode 59: Start the year with a plan
4 januari 2019 · 1 uur 2 min
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. Lees meer
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?

26 december 2018 · 1 uur 25 min
End of year circle jerk is a celebration of accomplishments within our show for 2108. We would like to thank everyone who listened, made time for interviews, helped, gave feedback and believed in us. Lees meer
We have both had a phenomenal year, making friend, reaching out, learning about others and networking. The stories and the people we have met on the journey have been surreal to say the least.
We cannot thank you enough for taking us into your homes, laughing, crying, learning and celebrating with us.

Episode 57: It’s me isn’t it?
21 december 2018 · 1 uur 3 min
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. Lees meer
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.

Episode 55: Positive First
6 december 2018 · 1 uur 4 min
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. Lees meer
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.

Episode 54: Moments to be proud of
30 november 2018 · 1 uur 3 min
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. Lees meer
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.

Episode 52: Getting out of the shit
15 november 2018 · 1 uur 38 min
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. Lees meer
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.
If you enjoy our show and you would like to help us, you can donate as much as a cup of coffee. It's only once a month on our Patreon page and you get access to extra content.

Episode 51: Interviewing Meagan Karnes
7 november 2018 · 1 uur
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. Lees meer
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

Episode 50: Diagnosing problems in training
31 oktober 2018 · 1 uur 25 min
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. Lees meer
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.

Episode 49: Dealing with difficult clients and people
28 oktober 2018 · 1 uur 5 min
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. Lees meer
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.

Episode 47: Dog parks dystopia or utopia
10 oktober 2018 · 1 uur 13 min
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. Lees meer
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.

Episode 46: Social Responsibility
4 oktober 2018 · 51 min
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. Lees meer
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.

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.

Episode 43: Questions from our audience Part 2
14 september 2018 · 1 uur 18 min
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. Lees meer
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.

An incredibly nice guy and an asset to our industry, we hope to speak more with Larry in the future.

Episode 40: Dissecting Ego
23 augustus 2018 · 1 uur 19 min
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. Lees meer
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.

9 augustus 2018 · 1 uur 27 min
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.

Episode 36: Keeping sane in the dog industry
18 juli 2018 · 49 min
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. Lees meer
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.
