Dog Training DisrUPted

Karen Grange, founder of Small Dog Rescue BC. was not always a small-dog lover, but she now devotes her life to them. Why the change? SnipPet-How to "elevate" yourself as a trainer or behaviourist


Listen Later

Karen Grange is full of surprising and thought provoking info for anyone wanting to start or volunteer with a dog rescue.  Is it all it is cut out to be? Well, that depends on your expectations and your perception of people!

The SnipPet is back by popular demand - a short piece on a random topic (commonly associated with the interview). 

In this episode, the SnipPet discusses the benefits of teaching people how to work with their dogs. Board-n-train, classroom style, or even 1-on-1 without a 2 way conversation (due to the trainer's inability to adapt to individual clients and dogs), can be limiting for both the trainer/behaviourist and their client. Learn why working with fosters and rescuers forces trainers and behaviourists to elevate their skill set.

Season 5 is a "Dogology" (kinda like a mixology) of tips, Q and A's, interviews, discussions and a deeper look into the 3 components of UPWARD Dogology all with the goal of increasing awareness and making the world a better place for all animals, including humans! Season 4 is interviews with people and organizations that help animals. Increase your awareness and be part of the solution by listening, sharing, and reviewing.  Season 3 dives deep into trending methods. Are they right for you and your dog? Season 2 shares the learning journey of my clients with dogs with different issues and backgrounds; always interesting and a great way to feel a connections with others who have similar experiences.  Season 1 starts by sharing my unique learning journey and then dives into why positive reinforcement training (and practices under that "umbrellas") are often limiting, ineffective and/or counter-productive with dogs over 6 months. It finishes with an introduction into cognitive behavioural therapy and UPWARD Dogology.
