Whether you’re a seasoned dog trainer or a passionate dog owner, this episode will change how you approach training — forever.

Join expert trainers Lauren Langman and Dave Hibbert as they unpack the Small Incremental Learning System (SILS) — the step-by-step method behind reliable, long-lasting behaviour change in dogs of all breeds and backgrounds.

For trainers, SILS may feel familiar — a structure you've used instinctively. For dog owners, it’s a practical roadmap to transform your dog’s behaviour without overwhelm, frustration, or gimmicks.

💡 What You’ll Learn:

• What SILS is — and why it’s the foundation behind every truly successful training plan
• How small steps create powerful, lasting behaviour
• Lauren’s 12-step retrieve sequence and how it applies to any skill
• Why quick fixes fail (and what to do instead)
• How to troubleshoot and rebuild behaviour without going back to square one

Whether you’re coaching clients, preparing for competition, or simply want better communication with your dog, this episode gives you the system to make it happen.

🎧 Listen now — and unlock the power of step-by-step, reliable, real-world dog training.
