Hello everyone,
Welcome to the latest episode of my podcast! Today, I’m joined by Dr. Douglas Elliffe, a Doctor of Philosophy in Psychology from the University of Auckland, New Zealand, whose expertise lies in animal behavior, behavior analysis, and behavioral science. In this episode, we dive into some highly relevant and often controversial topics, starting with Dr. Elliffe’s well-known Kiwi Aversion Training (KAT) study, which used electric collars and included both one-month and one-year follow-ups. We also discuss his commentary on the influential China, L. Mills, and Cooper study, which compares the efficacy of dog training with and without electronic collars against positive reinforcement methods.
Together, we explore the benefits and challenges of using Differential Reinforcement Protocols and tackle some of the critical issues facing the dog training industry today, including the rise of bans and position statements from various organizations. Dr. Elliffe also shares his thoughts on some fascinating topics that will pique the interest of dog trainers everywhere.
So, sit back, enjoy the episode, and don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe if you find this discussion valuable!
In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Sergio Pellis, a distinguished researcher who has spent over four decades studying Play in rats within lab settings.
Together, we share a deep fascination with Play, having each explored its nuances for more than 40 years—myself with dogs, particularly during training, and Dr. Pellis with his groundbreaking work on rats.
Throughout this conversation, we delve into the many shared benefits of Play that transcend species, from cooperation to the establishment of rules, even how discomfort can shape the play experience.
We explore some truly thought-provoking questions, like, "Why do we play at all?"
After my recent study comparing electric collars and positive reinforcement set the internet on fire, I've taken the opportunity to shift focus back to what has always been my core passion: Play.
This episode allows us to reconnect with the foundational aspects of behavior through the lens of Play and its profound role in shaping both dog and human development.

Imagine if your stressed out or aggressive, fearful, anxious dog (pick one), could take few deep breaths and instantly calm themselves down—sounds like a superpower, right?

Training Without Conflict® Podcast Episode Forty-Two: Jany Böhm
As of late, many have laid claim that IGP is a dying sport.
However, after the drama and theatrics of the most recent FMBB World Championship we saw a passionate outcry from trainers around the world pleading for transparency in the sport.
There was also a considerable amount of outrage as to who was the rightful champion.
In this podcast, I am happy to be joined by my great friend, and 2024 FMBB Vice World Champion Jany Böhm.
This was recorded only weeks after the 2024 FMBB World Championship, which led to a polarizing series of events that have many wondering what the proper next step for the sport should be.
Thanks to Jany, we are able to go deep into the process of this year’s World Championship.
He provided an honest accounting of the competition, the judging, and rules enforced this year.
We also discuss how all of these things have impacted the sport in the past.
We discuss the good and the bad, in the interest of providing those in power with context on what decisions can further improve the sport of IGP.
IGP has always had it’s own flavor of controversy, but it is now possible for trainers with a large platform to voice their thoughts an opinions in the interest of trainers around the world.
In some cases, the Training Without Conflict® Podcast is here to share knowledge and entertainment, but thanks to you all as listeners, we have the power to have a voice to make a change.
In the interest of improving and growing the sport of IGP, I look forward to seeing your thoughts in the comments.
You never know how impactful your comment might be…
Enjoy.
