We often talk about dogs being “man’s best friend,” but very seldom do we stop to ask, “Am I my dog’s best friend?” Changing the way we think about our relationship can change the way we interact with our dogs, and has the potential to make our friendships with them even deeper and more meaningful.
This is the philosophy that my guest today brings to her training. Sarah Rutten sees dog training as being less about training the dog and more about training the
human to understand and interact with the dog better. She’s even written a book,
The Canine Perspective, to help humans understand where their canine companions are coming from a little bit better. She joined me today all the way from Australia to talk about burnout, special “heart dogs,” and doing hard things.
