Listen Dog Training: The Walk & Talk

Relationship-Based Training: Buzzword or Breakthrough?


Listen Later

In this episode, we’ll dive deep into one of the most popular - and misunderstood - concepts in modern dog training: relationship-based training.

Is it just another fluffy social media trend, or is it a powerful, science-backed training philosophy that can change your dog’s behaviour and your bond forever?

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • What defines relationship-based training — and how it differs from other methods
  • The neuroscience behind why your dog’s relationship with you matters more than you think
  • How to use your bond as a training tool, not a reason to delay teaching
  • Why boundaries and clarity are essential
  • The difference between being present and actually engaging with your dog
  • How to become more reinforcing than the environment, using smart training instead of just affection
  • Five practical pillars to begin relationship-based training today — including engagement games, communication systems, and the power of play
  • Whether you’re a seasoned trainer or just getting started, this episode will give you fresh clarity, new tools, and a recharged sense of purpose when it comes to your connection with your dog.
