  • Focusing on the Good
    Aug 28 2024

    This week, Jess and Scott discuss focusing on the good when it comes to dog training and life. It's often easy to fixate on what is lacking or where improvements are needed, but consciously choosing to highlight the positives can benefit both dog and human.

    If my dog has a major health issue, how can I focus on the good?

    Why is it important to always see performance dogs as pets first?

    When is focusing on the good most important?

    Aug 21 2024

    This week, Jess and Scott discuss reintroducing a dog into the household after the first dog has passed. Factors like genetics, training methodologies, family dynamics, and life circumstances all can impact how life with the second dog can unfold differently than life with the first dog.

    Why is it not always a smart idea to switch breeds?

    What differences have surfaced in rescues in the past decade?

    How can you best set your family up for a successful Round 2?

  • The Dark Side Of Dog Training
    Aug 14 2024

    This week, Jess and Scott discuss the incredibly difficult topic of behavioral euthanasia. Putting our dogs down at the end of their lives is heartbreaking for everyone, but having to make the choice to euthanize a young dog with behavioral issues can fall into an entirely different category of pain.

    When should you consider euthanizing your dog?

    Why is it sometimes difficult to find a vet who will perform a behavioral euthanasia?

    What role should your trainer play in your dog's behavioral euthanasia?

  • Everyone Doesn’t Have to Be on the Same Page
    Aug 7 2024

    This week, Jess and Scott discuss the concept of everyone being on the same page or not. Many trainers will claim that you will never successfully train your dog unless everyone in the household has the same criteria for the dog, but this episode explains why that isn't necessarily the case.

    How can a family succeed with their dog if everyone isn't following the same protocols?

    Why is it important each family member have his or her own set of criteria of what he or she expects from the dog?

    Is it confusing to the dog if everyone doesn't have the same expectations of behavior?
