In this episode, Kim and Carla dive into the flashy world of televised dog training and pull back the curtain on what really happens behind the scenes. They critique popular shows, discussing the risks of aversive-based techniques, the unrealistic timelines for behaviour change, and the danger of skipping crucial health checks. Together, they explore how TV shows set pet owners up with false expectations, and why real progress requires patience, professional guidance, and a deep understanding of each dog’s individual needs. Tune in for an honest, thoughtful conversation that champions safe, humane, and realistic dog training.
