In this episode, I explore the concepts of relevance and pressure in dog training. I discuss how relevance, or assigning importance to certain things, lays the foundation for effective training, especially when raising a puppy or welcoming a new dog. It’s easy to give too much importance to things that aren’t crucial, so balance is key. I also talk about pressure and the importance of being mindful about how and when we apply it, ensuring it supports learning without overwhelming our dogs.

In this episode, I discuss how dogs don’t fit into boxes, challenging the notion that all dogs are the same or should behave in predictable ways. I explore the importance of recognizing each dog's individuality and uniqueness, shaped by both genetics and environment. By understanding the variation in behavior and personality, dog guardians can better appreciate their dogs for who they truly are, rather than forcing them into societal or pop culture stereotypes.

In this episode, I talk about off leash reliability and what it really takes to achieve it. There’s no overnight success when it comes to training your dog to be reliable off leash—it’s a process that can take years of consistent work. I highlight the importance of understanding that each dog is different, and what works for one may not work for another. I share insights on setting realistic expectations, tailoring your approach to your dog’s unique needs, and the dedication required to build a strong off leash relationship with your dog.
