This episode is all about muzzles. Rachel Harris of A Good Feeling Dog Training joins me and we discuss when you might need to use one, the stigma around them, what kinds to use, and how to start training your dog on how to wear one.

In this episode, I discuss some of the pitfalls in not setting realistic expectations for our dogs when training them and what we can change in our behavior to help our dogs succeed.

A lot of people want to work on teaching their dogs “no”. In this episode, I explain why it’s not something we should spend time on, the negative consequences that can come from it, and what to do instead.

In this episode, I discuss what a reward marker is, the importance of using one when training, how to use it properly, and some way ways to practice using it.

In this episode I go over all the steps to properly greet a dog - what to avoid doing and what to proactively do instead to make sure the interactions are safe and successful, and that the dog is consenting to the greeting.

On this episode, we go over the importance of proper management in order to achieve success in training.

This episode will cover what mental stimulation is (also known as canine enrichment), why it is so important to make it a part of your dog’s daily life, and in what ways we can provide it. Mental stimulation helps curb some of your dog’s unwanted behaviors, but it also increases their problem solving skills, confidence, and overall happiness!
