Steve is undeniably one of the very best trainers of military and police k9s in the world. In this episode, we discuss some of his "war stories." Dog's he's handled, owned and trained. Funny stories and some sad.

Steve's amazing talent in training these high caliber dogs is only surpassed by his true love of dogs. I think that comes through in this podcast.

There are some amazing studies relating to supplementing fish oil, aka Omegas, to our dogs. I sat down with Dr Kristina Jackson from Omega Quant to discuss some of the health benefits for our dogs.

Omega Quant has an Omega level test that you can bring to your vet, with your dog, and within 10 days you'll get a detailed readout of your dog's levels. I suggest doing this before adding or removing fish oils to / from your dog's diet.

Use the code CABRAL10 and save 10% off of your test (and you'll be supporting the show).

Ever since I heard the news about a Belgian Malinois being at the scene when the US Navy SEALS got Osama Bin Laden, I wanted to talk to Will. I wanted to meet Cairo too, but that wouldn't be possible. BUT, today I got my wish, to talk to Will Chesney and hear first hand what it was like to be at the scene of one of the most famous missions of all times.

Will and I talk about Cairo, how they met, training, living with him and that fateful night. We share the story of when Cairo was shot and Will thought he would lose him. As well as the heroic life that Cairo led until his last day.

I highly recommend you read Will's book, NO ORDINARY DOG!

Steve is the go to guy when government agencies look for badass dogs and how to train them. He has been working dogs in this capacity for 30+years. Although he won't (or can't) confess to the agencies he works for, you'll see from this conversation that his work includes some of the top agencies in the US government.

His knowledge and skillset in teaching assault and detection dogs is unequalled and this chat is an amazing insight into a realm that you cannot break.

Steve is like a brother to me and our chats are heartfelt, sincere, funny and heart wrenching. This is the first in a series of podcasts that will address the amazing work of our military heroes, both human and canine.

If you haven't heard of Oscar Mora, you'll wanna listen to this podcast. Oscar has been in the game just over 10 years but is making some waves. He's a very skilled. decoy, handler and trainer. He was the Southwest Regional IGP Champion for 2 years and runs Elevated Canine Academy. He's a good guy and a trainer that I like and admire. See what makes him tick in this personal chat!

Pierre is an amazing guy whose knowledge of breeding, training and working with German Shepherds spans so many fields it may blow your mind. He trains, breeds and temperament tests the dogs for the Swedish military. He has developed a breeding and training program that is unsurpassed.

This chat covers topics including breeding, bloodlines, training, raising, selecting dogs and working with them in a country that does not allow e-collars, prong collars and a host of other tools.... are they successful? Take a listen to this podcast for the answer and some real world surprise confessions of what works and what doesn't!

Ever wonder what goes through the mind of your AKC Hunt Test Judge? I sit down with Larry Saavedra who has been judging hunt tests for the AKC for 15 years and find out.

This is a real fun chat that delves deeper into the conversation his input on training, relationships with our dogs and more.

If you don't know anything about AKC Hunt Tests, you'll learn a lot. If you've been training your gun dogs and wanna get a deeper look into the mind of a judge, this is a fun podcast to listen to.
