Good day to you Bookshelvers! How the devil are you?

Well here is something guaranteed to brighten that commute, run or washing up session. This week we have been lucky enough to chin wag with Steve Mann. 

For those who haven't heard of Steve (where have you been?) he is a force of nature in the Dog Training world. As well as being the head honcho and founder at the Institute For Modern Dog Training (IMDT) his recent book "Easy Peasy Puppy Squeezy" took the world by storm.

We caught up with Steve to chat about the book, hear some classic stories and get an answer to the question "what would dogs do all day if the could choose themselves"?

In other news Nat had injured herself fearlessly launching into an altercation and Steve reveals why he has a phobia of button up Jeans (oh god). Of course we have the usual examination of the book with dad jokes, jingles and japery included. 

Please share, review and send us a question to be featured on an upcoming episode.
