Imagine escaping the gritty streets of New York City for the serene woods of rural Maine, only to have mysteries follow you like a loyal dog. That's the thrilling premise of The Dog Training Detective, a captivating podcast and book series created by Lee Charles Kelley, a Manhattan-based novelist and real-life dog trainer. Wikipedia describes Kelley as the author of six detective novels starring Jack Field, a grizzled former NYPD homicide cop who adores dogs but can barely tolerate people. Fed up with human deceit, Jack takes early retirement, buys a boarding and training kennel, and dreams of peaceful country walks and quiet nights trading crime scenes for obedience lessons.

But fate has other plans. Crimes keep sniffing him out, from suspicious clients to baffling murders right in his backyard. Jack isn't solving these whodunits alone. He teams up with Dr. Jamie Cutter, a sharp-witted, funny part-time medical examiner who becomes his investigative partner and love interest. Together, they sift through alibis, autopsy reports, and muddy paw prints, proving that dogs aren't just pets—they're clue-cracking companions.

What sets this series apart is how canine behavior unlocks the cases. A nervous rescue fixates on one forbidden room. A confident shepherd locks onto a scent no human detects. A so-called bad dog turns misbehavior into a map to the crime. Kelley draws on his expertise and Kevin Behan’s Natural Dog Training philosophy, treating dogs as emotional partners driven by fear, excitement, and loyalty—not outdated alpha dominance or rigid conditioning. Apple Podcasts and Spreaker episodes highlight how Jack reads the canine mind while Jamie deciphers human bodies, cracking cases that leave local cops baffled.

Listeners, whether you're a mystery fan, dog lover, or both, The Dog Training Detective blends humor, romance, suspense, and practical training tips into tail-wagging adventures. Dive into the podcast for episodes like A Nose for Trouble or The Case of the Curious Canine Clue, inspired by Kelley's novels.
