Lhanna is joined by Lanette to discuss the constant demands placed on professionals within the industry by other professionals and often the most dastardly, ourselves! We discuss education, providers and how we feel that impacts our skillset, ability and professional expression as dog trainers.

We also delve into the difficulties around content creation, training styles and imposter syndrome.

With guest speaker Amie from Canine Pawtential, we delve into a myriad of experiences and learning curves we have learned from. Sometimes when behaviour issues arise we intentionally make our dogs world smaller, with the best intentions. As dog trainers, we discuss why this is something we think you should be wary of doing, and why it often causes more harm than good in the long run.

PART 2 to - Ep8: Are you really being pro active, or actually re active when it comes to reactivity training?

In another two part series, Gemma and I look at reactivity training and how it may not actually be as productive as you think it is. We discuss our personal and professional experiences, alongside things we have changed and now view differently when setting reactive dogs are their humans up for success.

Delving into how we sometimes train off the grid to keep our dogs on the road going forwards; and how this can really enrich their life and training in the process.

Joined by Amie from Canine Pawtential in Ayrshire, we delve into the topic of reactive dogs and in this episode really consider how trainers can impact clients long term, positively or negatively despite the best intentions. We do get a little ranty and are very open with our own struggles with our own dogs. 

This is a 2 piece series, broken down as there was so much ground to cover; but we also realise we have only just scratched the surface here!  

Alongside discussing the main points from a dog guardian perspective we also hit the topic from the point of dog trainers which leads to some differing answers and some interesting solutions. We share our own experiences as guardians of reactive dogs and things we wish we had done differently. As always, these are only our opinions based on our experience. You, your dogs safety and your clients safety should always be top priority in these situations.
