The agility world is fighting on the internet again, so naturally, we had to talk about it. 

On this week's episode of Bitches in Season, we are unpacking the hot debate regarding balanced training in dog sports. But before we judge, we confess. All three of us share our personal stories of using e-collars and prongs in the past, the mistakes we made, and the specific moments that changed our minds.

Tune in for the laughs and the cringe, stay for the honest conversation about why fear has no place on an agility course.

We love a cross-generational bestie! This week, Charly Teller joins the chat to prove that agility friendships have no age limit, whether you’re 20 or 80.

We talk about her journey from Junior World Team competitor to pre-vet school student, and why her dad is secretly the ultimate Agility Gossip Girl (seriously, he knows more tea than we do)

We also dive into our own cringey childhood stories because what are friends for? Grab a drink, get comfy, and join us for an episode full of friendship, nostalgia, and just the right amount of chaos.

This week we’re sitting down with Tori of Wild at Heart Pet Company - creative chaos, business brains, and one of the kindest humans in dog sporting gear. We get into the real story behind building a brand from nothing, terrifying first investments, and why “overnight success” is a lie.

From soggy first setups and mental breakdowns in parking lots to becoming a must-stop booth at major events, Tori shares what it takes to survive (and thrive) as a small business owner in dog sports. If you’ve ever wanted to bet on yourself but were scared to jump, this one’s for you.

This week, we got to chat with an actual renaissance woman and total badass: McKenzie Minto: Team USA veteran, UKI Judge, and Co-Director of the amazing Boundless Junior Agility Company (BJAC). Oh, and she has a 9-5 too! Seriously, what can't she do? McKenzie is a pro at setting audacious goals, making no apologies for being an ambitious young woman, and always enjoying the journey.

McKenzie started agility at just 8 years old and was literally raised by the sport. Tune in to learn what it’s really like competing on the World Stage as a teenager and how she managed to stay out of the drama. You'll be impressed by how she's way more mature and grounded than us when it comes to keeping perspective about a sport that easily takes over your identity.

Plus, we get the scoop on her mission with BJAC: building community among young agility handlers, removing barriers, and creating massive new opportunities each year to inspire the next generation. Tune in for this insightful (and maybe a little gossipy) look at the youths who are shaping our sport!

Bitch, say cheese! This week’s episode features the one and only Nadia Hall, the owner of Barking Dog Images and the talent behind some of agility’s most iconic shots!

From freezing those blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moments in the ring to understanding what makes each dog shine, Nadia gives us a behind-the-lens look at the artistry, chaos, and emotion of capturing our sport.

We chat about what it’s really like photographing our dogs (and us!) in the heat of competition, her favorite moments, and the creative process that brings every image to life. Nadia shares her secrets to capturing the pure joy (and sometimes chaos!) of the handler/dog relationship and built a career doing what she loves most, celebrating the bond between handler and dog.

Whether you’re an agility competitor, a dog lover, or just someone who appreciates a killer photo, this episode will make you see the sport in a whole new light.

You already knew we were opinionated bitches and this week, we’re proving it! You asked, and we answered with our most unfiltered thoughts yet. From the latest internet agility drama to the ongoing debate about the too-high, too-skinny dog walk, we’re tackling the topics everyone’s buzzing about with zero filter.

Tune in for a full dose of honesty, laughter, and the occasional gasp as we share what’s really on our minds. Then tell us your own spicy opinions, because we know our fellow bitches in season always have something to say 😈

This week on Bitches in Season, we’re serving up a hot take you need to hear: Bitch, Don’t Skip the Basics! Yeah, we know, start lines and flatwork don’t sound as fun as international courses and tricky threadles, but here’s the truth: if you don’t nail the fundamentals, that fancy stuff is gonna fall apart real quick.

We’re dragging ourselves a little this week, spilling the tea on the cringe-worthy moments and training gaps we had to go back and patch up with our own dogs. Spoiler alert: skipping the boring stuff will come back to bite you in the ass.

So grab a drink, hit play, and let us remind you (with love and a little tough bitch energy): your future self and your dog will thank you for going back to school.

Ever wondered what's really going through a judge's mind when you step to the line? This week, the bitches are getting the ultimate inside scoop from the other side of the score table. We're sitting down with UKI judge and competitor Gracie Huffman for a tell-all conversation about the world of agility judging.

We're getting a judge's-eye view on everything from course design and handler mistakes to the drama that happens when the dogs aren't the only bitches in the house.

Gracie fills us in on her journey and what it really takes to wear the judge's hat. What is the key ingredient to being an agility judge? Spoiler alert: you have to love the game. 

That feeling when it turns out that your "perfect" prospect isn’t the perfect fit? Yeah, let's talk about it. In this episode, "Rehoming Dogs," we're having the conversation nobody wants to have but some of us have experienced, making the call to find the right place for the dog that didn’t work out. We’re getting into the nitty-gritty of what to do when your dream dog doesn't fit into your life, the emotional rollercoaster that follows, and how to find them their perfect forever home without losing your mind. Join us as we share our own stories, hot takes, and a few tips for navigating this tough situation.

Welcome to the first-ever "Listener Tails" episode! You sent in your juiciest, most dramatic agility trial stories, and we are here to dissect it all.
