The Dog Training Detective

Sleuthing with Paws: Lee Charles Kelley's Crime-Solving Canine Wisdom


Listen Later

The Dog Training Detective is not just a title—it’s a fresh fusion of crime-solving and canine wisdom, brought to life by Lee Charles Kelley. According to Apple Podcasts, Kelley is a renowned Manhattan-based dog trainer and novelist, best known for his series of six detective novels featuring Jack Field, an NYPD homicide detective who retreats to Maine for a quieter life, only to find himself repeatedly drawn into mysteries that his skills, and his dogs, help him unravel.

Listeners are treated to a podcast experience that’s as unique as the books: a spirited blend of gripping detective stories, genuine dog training know-how, and moments of laugh-out-loud comedy. These episodes don’t simply entertain—they double as an informal guide to canine behavior. Kelley’s storytelling is infused with practical tips, so dog lovers and mystery fans alike leave each episode a little wiser and a lot more entertained.

What sets Kelley apart in the world of dog training is his distinctive philosophy. Unlike many trainers who rely on dominance-based models or classic operant conditioning, Kelley draws inspiration from Kevin Behan, creator of the Natural Dog Training methodology. This approach centers on the emotional bond between owner and dog, focusing on understanding canine behavior through empathy, observation, and connection rather than control. Kelley’s willingness to question industry norms has made him a lively, often controversial voice in dog circles, even earning him a widely read blog on Psychology Today called “My Puppy, My Self.”

But Kelley’s relationship with dogs goes far beyond theory and storytelling. His first dog, Charley, actually gained a measure of fame by appearing on NBC’s Late Night with David Letterman in a recurring segment, adding a dash of real-life showbiz to Kelley’s already eclectic resume. This personal investment shines through in both his fiction and his advice, welcoming listeners into a world where the same keen detection skills can solve both mysteries and canine conundrums.

The Dog Training Detective podcast stands out by making dog training approachable, weaving it into the suspense and charm of classic detective tales. Kelley proves that unlocking the mysteries of dog behavior can be just as thrilling as cracking a criminal case—and just as rewarding.
