If there was a "Workingdog Handler / Trainer Hall of Fame" Cameron Ford would be one of the guys already being in there. 

He's been around policedogs ever since he was a child, getting his first impressions from his neighbor who worked with dogs. Later being a military dog handler in Germany, then a police dog handler, SWAT operator, instructor and so on up until now, where he runs Ford K9, has two employees and a lot of dogs, projects and passion for his work. 

The cool thing about Cameron is, that he never quit being curious on things in the dogtraining. He trained with other animals in a project for the Navy, also with several Seal teams but more important, he began to find dialogues with researchers, scientists, people from the lab and managed to build a bridge on how to implement the theoretical knowledge to the practical side of things. Now he works with different universities, supporting different projects and helps gaining data himself also by doing the "cognition classes" and many more. 

You will definitely enjoy this episode and it looks like Cameron will be back on the show for more!

What a great first guest!

I got to meet Jens in 2019 in Sweden while being in a one year online course for scent detection. Ever since we met in Sweden or Austria for multiple courses and workshops that we organized with him or where we attended as "learners". 

Jens has not only a vast knowledge in dog training, he is an "active duty" scientist, biologist, zoologist, father, husband and just a great guy to have around yourself. 

Before writing any more, please just listen to this episode.

Great to have you here! My name is Florian Schneider. I am one of the founders of the Kynotec GmbH in Austria and I am responsible for all the training aspects, the education of external and internal teams, the selection, purchase and sale of dogs as well as product development such as our scentwheels or our camera system "Kynotec Recon One". I'm always looking for something new - for example new ways of training, trying to understand theory and applying it in practice, researching the approaches of others and taking part in courses and further educations with renowned trainers worldwide, I follow various channels, watch and listen.

It seems as if success in dog training is not only due to the love for the dogs, I try to find out WHO and most importantly WHY and HOW trainers and specialists are so successful in their respective branches. So you can expect on "not dog-related" topics in this podcast, but on everything to do with the people in the show, their work, research and studies, entrepreneurship, breeding and who knows what else comes to our mind.

With Kynotalk we want to offer a channel through which we can think outside the box and escape from our , as we say in german „own business blindness“. Kynotalk will be published in English and German, depending on the origin of our interview partners. So we hope to expand our network to give even more listeners the opportunity to learn new things, easily and from anywhere, just by listening to our podcast. At Kynotalk I will record "monologues" and share my thoughts with you, but since I don't have too much to say , I will do my best to invite special guests to the show who have influenced me or whose work impresses me.

I am interested in how we can optimize the training of dog teams, raise quality standards in order to make operations more efficient and thereby strengthen the relevance of workingdogs in all sectors for the future. Training aspects, selection of dogs, theories and practices, self-motivation and everything related to the business. I want to know how to improve myself, or as my friend Dirk would say "how to get a little less bad every day".

So let's deal with problems, try to understand causes and consequences, listen to how experienced and smart trainers and experts in their field see things, reveal their routines and give us an insight into their work.

In order not to miss anything, subscribe to our podcast and check out our social media to find out more about us and our interview guests. And if you like what you're hearing, then share our podcast with your colleagues, one good turn deserves another.

Let’s do this

Schön dass ihr dabei seid! Mein Name ist Florian Schneider. Ich bin Geschäftsführer bei der Kynotec GmbH in Österreich und verantwortlich für unsere Trainingsgestaltung, der Ausbildung von externen und internen Teams, der Selektion sowie dem An- und Verkauf von Hunden sowie der Produktentwicklung wie zB. unseren Scentwheels oder unserem Kamerasystem „Kynotec Recon One“. Ich bin stets auf der Suche nach Neuem - so zum Beispiel nach neuen Wegen im Training, versuche die Theorie zu verstehen und in der Praxis anzuwenden, erforsche Herangehensweisen anderer und nehme dabei bei neuen Kursen und Ausbildungen bei renormierten Trainern weltweit Teil, schau mir diverses Video auf unterschiedlichen Kanälen an, beobachte und höre zu.

Es scheint ganz, so als ob Erfolg im Hundetraining nicht nur an der Liebe zum Hund liegt, ich versuche zu erfahren WER und vor allem WARUM und WIE Trainerinnen und Trainer, Spezialisten und Innen in ihren jeweiligen Nischen so erfolgreich sind und wie es dazu kam. Also könnt ihr euch auf „nicht ausschließlich hunderelevante“ Themen einstellen, sondern auf Alles rund um die Personen im Gespräch und ihr Schaffen, der Forschung, dem Unternehmertum, der Zucht und wer weiß was uns noch alls in den Sinn kommt.

Mit Kynotalk wollen wir einen Kanal bieten, durch welchen wir über den Tellerrand schauen können und aus unserer Betriebsblindheit entfliehen. Kynotalk wird in englischer und deutscher Sprache, je nach Herkunft unserer Interviewpartner, erscheinen. Somit erhoffen wir uns, unser Netzwerk zu erweitern um damit noch mehr Hörerinnen und Hörern die Möglichkeit zu geben, Neues zu erfahren, ganz einfach und von überall, als Podcast. Bei Kynotalk werde ich „Monologe“ führen und mit euch meine Gedanken teilen, da ich selbst jedoch gar nicht Viel zu sagen habe werde ich mein Bestes geben Gesprächspartnerinnen in die Show einzuladen die mich beeinflusst haben, mir imponieren oder deren Schaffen mich beeindruckt.

Mich interessiert, wie wir die Ausbildung von Hundeteams optimieren können, Qualitätsstandarts heben um Einsätze effizienter zu gestalten um damit die Relevanz von Diensthunden in allen Branchen, zivil und behördlich, für die Zukunft zu festigen. Trainingsaspekte, Selektion von Hunden, Theorien und Praktiken, Eigenmotivation und Alles was mit dem Geschäft zu tun hat. Ich will wissen, wie ich mich selbst verbessern kann, oder wie mein Freund Dirk sagen würde „wie man jeden Tag ein bisschen weniger schlecht wird“.

Setzen wir uns also mit Problemen auseinander, versuchen wir Ursachen und Konsequenzen zu verstehen, hören wir uns an, wie erfahrene und smarte Ausbilder sowie Koryphäen ihres Fachs die Dinge sehen, ihre Routinen Preis geben und wir einen Einblick in deren Arbeit gewährt bekommen.

Um nichts zu verpassen, abonniert unseren Podcast und schaut auf unserer Social Media vorbei um noch Mehr über uns und unsere Interviewgäste zu erfahren. Und wenn euch gefällt was ihr da hört, dann teilt unseren Podcast mit euren Kolleginnen und Kollegen, eine Hand wäscht die andere ;)

Los gehts.
