- Sometimes There's Side Eye - Episode 12: Rehoming
The topic of rehoming a dog can be a sensitive one. However, we believe there are situations where rehoming a dog can be in everyone's best interest. Join us as we share examples of rehoming successes, that we have been involved in or that have affected us personally. Explore how quality of life for everyone in your home (both 2 and 4 legged) should be considered when approaching the subject of rehoming, and why getting training isn't always enough. We will also address some best practices if you find yourself in a situation where you need to rehome your own dog. Despite it being a taboo subject, we think you will find this conversation both uplifting, and beneficial.

On this episode, come explore the sometimes tumultuous, and often divisive subject of dog training. Learn more about some of the labels like "positive reinforcement" and "balanced" training, and ways we can show kindness and respect to both people and dogs, regardless of what side of the fence you find yourself on. We hope you enjoy learning a little more about our training history and where we are now, in our training journeys with our dogs. We know this can be a tricky subject. We hope that you find our "just think about it and get curious" approach to be a less intimidating, and a kinder way to start thinking about the subject and address the human end of the leash. At the end of the day, we love seeing people out training their dogs, regardless of their method.
