The Fat commando may seem ironic as a heading and you may be wondering what’s the relevance? Well to answer that, you will have to listen to the episode smarty pants. While we are talking about smarties, Americans don’t even have real smarties like Australians do. I mean, WTAF? They are not the same and not delicious. Lift you game USA, because Canada knows what we’re talking about.

We are living in strange times indeed and it has nothing to do with getting fat from eating delicious smarties! Dam it, now I want some and I’ll probably need a bodyguard to get to the store.
Herein lies the issue. We are under siege by a worldwide virus, COVID-19 and it’s scaring the shit out of people as the world has crawled to a pace we have never seen before.

Even though this is a dog training and behaviour podcast at the core, it’s still a community based show. We care about you and we care about our community and we don’t want you to get too fat on smarties during restricted movement.

We hope this passes soon and you and your loved ones stay safe during these uncertain times.

Keep informed by trusted science based updates. Not by old mate Tom down the road. Fuck that guy, unless he brings Smarties and toilet paper.

Episode 119: The six P’s

Subscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | iHeartRadio | TuneIn | RSS | More

The six p’s is an episode that focuses entirely on being a better organised dog owner or handler. The six p’s mean that proper preparation prevents piss poor performance.

It’s an expression that’s been around for quite a while and is still used frequently in many services. When you think about it though, it’s hard to argue with. When you have a plan, it makes the operation so much easier. It relieves stress, because you’re organised, it increases the time factor, it prevents frustration and adds more value to your life.

There are so many positive factors that it’s almost hard to think we wouldn’t do it. However we are human. It’s easy for us to become motivated by other pursuits.

If it sounds familiar, it’s something that annoys us about our own dogs behaviour. Therefore, if we identify it early, we can collectively work on resolving that as an issue as well.

It sounds like like a lot to do but it will make your life far more enjoyable. Just think of the six p’s.

Never stop learning should be a mantra that most people adopt throughout their lives. When we open ourselves to learning something we expand so many opportunities.

It enhances lives, communities, businesses you name it. The more we open ourselves up, the less ignorant we are and the more progressive we can be.

rather than fight something on rumour or innuendo, we can really know what we’re fighting for.

Students of dog training need to remain educated over being opinionated. We will all do far better for our dogs and our community if we continue to grow.

Tobias Gustavsson is one of the team behind the Scandinavian Working Dog Institute. Tobias is not only involved in just training, he and his team are heavily involved in the science application.

If you know anything about scent detection, you will know that it is considered an evolving science. There are so many areas about Canine olfaction we are still learning about.

This is why it’s so important to have research teams like Tobias and his colleagues. if we want to get better at what we do, we need updated information.

Along with interviews like Cameron Ford and others who are involved in deep research, Tobias speaks of the importance of puppies

Tobias also shares with us a small part of history on how his former colleague came up with the Swedish Mentality test.

Web hope you enjoy another sensation interview with a leading trainer

Episode 114: Rescue dog remedy

Subscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | iHeartRadio | TuneIn | RSS | More

Rescue dog remedy is an episode that we felt should be discussed as an help file for new owners. not just new owners, it’s also for people who have been given incorrect information.

For example, some people are told that their rescue dog has been a part of a bait ring. In a majority of cases, this is highly unlikely. It doesn’t mean some dogs are not subjected to this torment. It does mean that at one time it became a story that escalated quickly.

Because of this and other reasons, we felt it was time to make a reference episode for the rescue community. Therefore, we can help by dispelling myths and educate on more of the accuracy.

If you are looking to get yourself a rescue or know someone that is, perhaps consider this episode. It may give someone a better start to sharing a life with a new dog.

We would like to acknowledge many of the people who work in this field. There are so many who give their time freely and compassionately. It can be full of reward and tears as there are so many moving parts in this industry.

People also like to know what they can do to help out. Sometimes a donation will go a long way, other ways to help are to volunteer.

Another suggestion we encourage is to do some research. This will go a long way in helping you learn a lot more about who you’re dealing with. There are always a mix of good and bad in all industries.

At any time if you are uncertain, reach out and ask others in the industry. Use resources that are available on-line and don’t let emotions cloud good judgement.

Taking care of you may sound arbitrary, however it’s often so easy overlooked and undervalued. In many cases, dog handlers will fuss more over what their dog is eating while not giving a second thought to themselves.

It’s so wonderful that we are learning to take better care of our dogs. Owners are making better choices in diet and staying more informed on what should go into their pets food.

But what about us? Why is it that our care has taken a back step? What type of backwards world are we living in that our health and wellbeing plays second fiddle to our pets?

This is why Narelle is speaking about her passion to make you aware of how easy self care can be. Furthermore, if we do spend a little more time on our health, it pays off in dividends in our training.

Finally, if you want more advise on how to do this, reach out to Narelle because it’s what she does best.

Cameron Ford is a fascinating person Pat met while he was in Las Vegas. Cameron is steeped in knowledge and has an extensive background in training dating back to 1995.

He began his professional career as a canine detection handler for explosives and narcotics in the US air-force. From there, Cameron was posted in Germany and had access to most of the best canine training in Europe.

When you hear this episode, we are both certain you will sit find it extremely interesting. Both he and his colleagues are working on some ground breaking scientific study which will strongly benefit detection work.

How so you may ask? Why not listen to the episode and let Cameron tell you himself. It was certainly an enjoyable session for us and we will be enthusiastic to have him return for more

If you’re in to Noseworks, detection or puppy raising, this will be a subject of interest to you or your department.

In the links below, we have provided details on how you can find Cameron and find out more of what he is doing.

Urban Myths Part 2 was inevitable after we had a backlog of myths from our last farming session. There are so many myths out there it’s almost impossible not to hear them. However, there were a few that we had not heard before that were both comical and troubling.

For example, If you give a working dog milk, it will never work again! Or you can get pregnant by sitting on a toilet seat.

That’s the kind of information that old mate down the road loves telling the kids. Urban myths exist in all industries and just for the hell of it.

Thanks to our number 1 fan, Emma Murdoch for collecting a boat load of bullshit for your listening pleasure.

We do hope you enjoys our new batch of myths for 2020
