Tyler Muto meditations is a catch up on someone who has does a lot for the industry.  Not just that,  Tyler is a mate to us and many people around the world.



It was alarming to hear that Tyler had slipped into a depression over the last couple of years.  He was kind enough and trusting enough to share that information with us and speak about how he combatted it.



Similar to Tyler, many people fall victim to this silent predator that comes from our dark past.  It can hit us without warning and change everything.



This year has also been one that gave plenty of us a punch in the face.  It has been hard but we still have each other and we are good for one another.

Episode 300: The dog trainers guide to time travel


In our latest podcast episode, we tackle a critical topic: the peril of false knowledge. While ignorance poses risks, misinformation masquerading as truth can be far more dangerous.



Recently, a comment on social media claimed that men are more likely to attend positive punishment seminars than women. This statement is not only unfounded but also misleading. Throughout our extensive careers in the dog training industry, we have never encountered anyone running or hosting such seminars. Positive punishment, which involves adding an aversive consequence after an undesired behaviour, can be used in training but only under the right circumstances. It should assist the dog in learning how to avoid a behaviour, be used sparingly, and always with compassion.



Furthermore, we delve into the South Australian government's proposed plan to ban IPG (International Working Dog trial) training. This proposal represents an outrageous example of government overreach. Such regulations not only undermine professional training methods but also spread misinformation about the nature and purpose of IPG. Effective dog training requires balanced, informed approaches that prioritise both the dog's and the handler's well-being.



Ignorance can lead to the spread of false knowledge, which can have detrimental effects. By staying informed and questioning dubious claims, we can combat ignorance and promote responsible training practices. Ignorance is a formidable foe, but with the right knowledge, we can overcome it. Join us as we debunk these myths and advocate for knowledge-based approaches. By listening to our podcast, you can stay informed and help combat the spread of false knowledge in the dog training community. Stay tuned, stay informed, and let's work together to promote truth and excellence in our field.

Episode 299: What’s more dangerous than ignorance?


In our latest podcast episode, we eagerly addressed key questions from our listeners about training dogs, particularly focusing on the importance of 'warming' when transitioning from indoor to outdoor environments. Our listeners are curious about how to maintain a strong connection with their dogs amidst a swag of new outdoor stimuli, and we were excited to delve into these challenges.



Firstly, warming your dog for a training session isn't just about tiring them out; it's about mentally preparing them for the shift in context from a calm indoor setting to a stimulating outdoor space. We emphasized starting with familiar commands like 'sit' and 'look at me' to help redirect your dog’s focus from distractions back to you. This approach not only primes them for learning but also reinforces your bond.



Furthermore, we discussed the value of a physical warm-up. A brisk walk or a playful fetch session can significantly reduce excess energy, thus improving your dog’s concentration. These activities should be seen not just as exercise, but as integral parts of your training routine that prepare your dog for the mental challenges ahead.



Ultimately, our discussion aimed to provide practical tips for our listeners, showing that with the right warming techniques, transitioning from indoor to outdoor training can be a smooth, effective process. Tune in to learn how these strategies can enhance your training sessions and deepen the connection with your dog.

Episode 298: Fatiguing or warming up the dog


We delved into the fascinating world of dog training, focusing on the suppression of behaviours, the concept of dogs "guessing" behaviours, and the powerful dynamics of perception between teacher and student. This discussion sheds light on how understanding and managing these elements can significantly enhance the training process and the relationship between dogs and their trainers.



Suppression of unwanted behaviours is a critical aspect of dog training. It involves identifying behaviours that may be problematic or dangerous and using effective training methods to reduce or eliminate them. However, it's important to approach suppression with a strategy that promotes an understanding, rather than just punishment. This method not only fosters a safer environment but also strengthens the bond between the dog and the trainer.



Furthermore, the idea that dogs may "guess" behaviours highlights the need for clear and consistent communication during training sessions. Dogs often try to anticipate commands and may end up performing the wrong actions. Trainers must be patient and persistent in guiding their canine students, helping them to learn and respond appropriately without confusion.



The power of perception in the relationship between teacher and student cannot be overstated. The way a trainer perceives a dog's behaviour and the dog's perception of the trainer's intentions both play crucial roles in the effectiveness of training. Understanding and adapting to each other's signals and behaviours can lead to more successful outcomes and a more harmonious relationship.

Episode 297: Suppression, guessing and perception in dog training


In our newest podcast episode, we explore the integration of working dogs into households and address the misleading advice suggesting that these dogs disrupt home dynamics. Despite these myths, working dogs can enhance home life, especially when combined with the right remote training techniques. These methods, often misunderstood, can actually strengthen your bond with your working dog rather than hinder it..



A significant portion of our discussion also focuses on the controversial use of electric collars or remote trainers. This often brings to mind images of harsh control methods. However, our conversation sheds light on the lack of scientific evidence supporting the notion that these tools are inherently cruel. It's crucial for dog owners to consider both the potential benefits and the proper usage of remote training devices to ensure they are used ethically and effectively.



Furthermore, we explore a rather peculiar behaviour—dogs eating their own faeces. While this may seem alarming to many pet owners, we provide insights into why this happens and how it can be managed. Understanding the root causes can help owners address this behaviour more sympathetically.
