No toxic masculinity here! Only good old fashioned, non-confrontational, reward-based dog training. In this episode, The Amys are joined by world-renowned dog trainer and advocate, Zak George, to discuss the current state of affairs in the dog training industry. They tackle tough topics like why people are drawn to punitive methods and tools, whether the training industry should be regulated, and how to ensure dog training certification is accessible to those with limited financial means if regulation is enacted. Zak updates listeners about what he has on the horizon for the rest of 2024 and beyond!
