Kashton Weinber is an entrepreneur, a volunteer,  artist and a philanthropist.  At eleven years of age, he has made a huge impact on the lives of  animals and the people who help them.  He is the founder of Kash's Kreations and donates money generated from the sales to local rescue organizations, and he has adopted animals, including a very special dog who had a checkered past resulting in anxiety.

I follow our interview with a quick look into the challenges of adopting or fostering dogs with anxiety and how UPWARD Dogology has helped the people who help these dogs.

Dominance is a buzzword, and often controversial topic, in the dog world. Why?  Well, it has a negative connotation, yet at the same time, dog owners are often told they need to gain dominance over their dog.  What is acceptable? Is gaining Dominance really our goal? Is expecting our place on the hierarchy ladder and our rules and policies to be respected asking too much?

This  thought-provoking piece on Dominance is followed by a chat with Sandra Davis, co-owner of The People Smart Academy.  Comparing humans and canines is, again, a controversial topic, yet, as professions, we find it effective (yes, Sandra compares humans to dogs!).  How we express ourselves, read others, teach and coach, and communicate is so important in all we do in life.

Megan Hensley is a renowned donkey farrier and expert, and also a rebel in her profession because of her unique approach to working with donkeys. Sound familiar? Yes, Megan and I have a shit-ton in common.  We recognize the need to change the human mindset and perception to achieve our goal of bettering the lives of animals.  This chat is full of surprises, laughs, information and genuine passion.

The chat is followed by a quick and dirty speel on why changing the human mindset in the dog world is a challenge, according to Dr. Bruce Fogel, President of Humane Society International.

Are behavioral issues unique to geographical locations?  level of abuse? lifestyle during puppyhood?  How do these effect the personality or needs of a dog? Perhaps all of these have an effect, but what is most important are the way the dog thinks and processes based on experiences, which are not as unique to geographical location and/or breed as one may think. How a dog is  forced to think and how he perceives his surroundings effects his behaviours.  Sound obvious?  You think it would be more obvious that it appears to be. 

Did you know every year 100,000 dogs are murdered in Spain? Mary,  of Extraordinary Galgos and Podencos, Atlantic Chapter, is passionate about spreading awareness to help dogs, and she does not sugar-coat it!  Join us for our chat with Mary who knows first hand the effects of upbringing on behaviours and personalities of dogs. She shares her knowledge of Greyhounds, Galgos, and Podencos and the situation that is going on in Spain.

We explore the role of women and our reaction when the behaviour of the dog is causing disruption to the family dynamics. Women are often the main care givers and we tend to blame ourselves when things are out of balance.  If you are frustrated and feeling defeated, learn why it is not your fault and how you can make changes to re-empower yourself and help your family.

This episode was created after I was a guest on a podcast called, "Her Canvas", where we discuss this issue in greater depth. I invite you to listen to that episode as well.  Jedidah is a wonderful woman, great mother, and dynamic podcast host.  It airs on Wed Nov 18th . I will include the link.

One of the most important approaches of UPWARD Dogology is "Never rush to your end goal". Sound obvious? In this episode I use the example of working with an aggressive dog to show how trainers commonly focus on the dog liking them or using treats to increase comfort, which can cause increased frustration for both the dog and their human.

In the last decade or more there has been huge changes and advancements in the dog world at large and within the behavior/training sector. Thanks to influential organizations such as The Fear Free Movement, the popularity of negative reinforcements has decreased dramatically.  Because Conditioning methods rely on reinforcements, this leaves positive reinforcements to carry the weight. Is this a realistic expectation?

The industries insistence of only including methods which rely on reinforcements has lead to an increase in gadgets and legitimizing "techniques" such as Avoidance and Distraction or simply "Managing Your Dog's Anxiety".  Are these realistic and, when dog owners are not satisfied, is it fair to blame them?
