We already recommend crate training, place training can be a helpful extra addition to your training repertoire. Place training is about teaching your dog to go to a designated place and remain there till released. This episode is about all the direct and indirect ways that this can be helpful to you and your dog.

Preamble up till 13 minutes. Episode starts then.

We're back!
Following a short, 14 minute catch up we get into talking training environments!
Selecting the correct environment to assist you in your training goal makes all the difference. Often times the environment right outside your front door isn't appropriate to best support you or your dog and you will have to go a little further afield.
This podcast is all about what considerations should be made at every phase of your dogs training.

The internet can be a great resource but the sheer amount of information can leave normal dog owners confused about what they should or shoudn't be doing with their dog when it comes to training.
This episode is about why that happens, how to wade through the information to get the best stuff that applies to you and why it's so important to leave so much of it behind.

Working through reactive behaviour with your dog takes time. It's not a test you can cram for and the work must be done methodically and consistently if you are to reach your goals. Challenges will present along the way and there will be ups and downs.

This week we wanted to talk about some the ways you can spend time with your dog that don't include working directly on their issues. This stuff is important for a lot of reasons and should be part of your training program and day to day life with your dog.

If your dog jumps on guests (or you) at the front door, this one is for you. This issue is one of the most common behaviours we get asked about as pet dog trainers, in this episode we discuss why this behaviour occurs and give some options for how to set you and your dog up for success moving forward.

Dog training equipment... part 2!
This conversation didn't go where we thought it would, but we had some stuff to say. Flexi leads, prong collars and e-collars, we get a bit ranty while we talk about why we think these tools have an important place in dog training. Even if some of this equipment isn't for you, we encourage you to have a listen with an open mind.
