Ep166 - Genetics vs Environment (Nature vs Nurture)

You are the shepherd, not the engineer of your dog's behaviour.

Any individual is a mosaic of their extended family.

Panos & Luke discuss the roles genetics and environment (innate and learnt behaviour) play in what creates a behaviour, temperament and mindset.

Environment brings forth genetic expression and it's potential, this relates to type/level of drive, temperament, health, social behaviours, anxiety and aggression to name a few.

It's not only training that develops a behaviour, it is also the DNA of your dog.

Work with the dog that is in front of you.
