Social nuances is described as a subtle or slight degree in difference. On the Canine Paradigm, the word nuances is often raised when we discuss training styles. however, it extends beyond just our interest of dogs and training.

We are living in a time of many social nuances, some that are quite strongly projected. To best discuss this, we brought in someone smarter than us to help diagnose the subject.

Birdy O’Sheedy has joined us again to offer her professional insight, not only on this but our old friend the ego.

Hopefully this episode will give you a few tools to better understand the ways we communicate.

Furthermore, you can reach out to Birdy if you are having difficulty with the world around us.

Additionally, there are many good people within our groups who help by just being available to talk with.

Scent detection is an art form in dog training that is best described as a methodology with many nuances. Two very well respected trainers who are well known for their work in scent training join us for this episode.

Jerry Bradshaw and Cameron Ford join us again, this time together, to share their ideas and techniques in scent training.

Like most trainers, both of these gentlemen have their respective style. Although we may have our preferences, we can’t deny good training and results.

Making sense of scents is a skill set that all good detection trainers should strive for. Additionally, it not only improves the dogs we train but the students we coach.

We hope you enjoy this episode as much as we did.

For more information or to contact them, Jerry is at Tarheel Canine and Cameron is at Ford K9

Sami Jo Menning has been learning to hunt with her father when she was a young girl. Now she has taken the next steps with her passion of hunting with dogs to teach other young ladies.

Seeing that it was a difficult sport/ hobby to get into, Sami has set up a group called, Her wilderness so other ladies can learn and be involved.

Not content at that alone, she is also teaching and competing in dock diving with her dogs. Sami is quite a dynamic young lady and a great role model for other ladies looking at learning how to safety learn hunting skills.

Interviewing a new trainer should be a process that all new and existing dog owners strongly consider.

We say this because a lot of time, people end up with the wrong trainer for a range of different reasons. Many of these are because they didn’t do their homework in the first place. Other reasons include being duped by clever marketing.

It’s forgiveable to assume, big add, lots of money so they must be a great trainer. It can also mean that they are just great at marketing and average at the important part.

This really needs to be a win/win scenario which results in a great outcome for you and your dog

Jason Firmin is a name that has been attached to The canine Paradigm since our humble beginnings. In some ways, he’s the third musketeer, apart from Birdy.

Firmin may sound like a gruff, grumpy old bastard, however in reality he has a heart of gold. He still is all those things and more but he will drop everything to help out his mates and the industry.

Recently Jason has been embarking on an incredible weight loss journey which he really needed to do due to several health concerns. Firmin shares his battle with obesity and complications that almost cost him a leg.

Peggy’s promise is a pet rescue charity organisation located on the central coast of New South Wales, Australia.

It is mainly run by three ladies, Sharon, Eleni and Megan with a score of wonderful volunteers. These people give so much to all the throw away pets in society by opening their homes and their hearts.

What most people don’t know is that rescue organisations like Peggy’s and so many more dip into their own pockets. Funding these operations are not cheap and there’s not a lot of deep pockets around.

So where does the money from? It comes from us with a lot of hustle from the people running the organisations.

It’s also a lot of work! Much more than most people realise or care to think about.

So how can you help? You can donate money, usable items or volunteer.

Episode 123: Pat Nolan’s Covid project

Pat Nolan’s Covid project is a promising look into the potential of dogs being trained to detect Covid-19. We understand that there are no guarantees in this field, however it’s exciting nonetheless.

We’re very supportive of Pat Nolan being a part of this project as it has potential to change the world. It’s a part of our life for now to keep hearing the word Covid – 19 or Corona virus. We’re sick of it for the most part as it has stopped the world and disrupped what we know as normal.

However, we don’t mind hearing about Covid -19, if we have promising news about its demise. We have the people at Penn Vet working dog centre to thank for this project being available to test.

You can look into the type of work they are involved in with theis link, Penn Vet.

Pat and Penn Vet are appealing for donations at this time to help fund the effort. You can reach out to Pat Nolan on how you, the community or a business may be able to help.

We plan to catch up with Pat in the near future in regards to a Covid training update and what progess he has made.

During this time, we hope you’re all doing ok. As a result of this work we may see a covid free world someday.

Training ideas during lock down is now the new norm for now which means we need to evolve. No one we know saw this coming, it’s the stupidest thing and it’s very serious.

What is even more serious during this lock down process is how it will effect peoples lives and businesses. Not to mention the impact it’s already having on mental health.

So the lock down means change to our life and to our income. Fortunately we have access to the internet and we can still be somewhat social.

To many people, it’s a lifestyle they are sadly familiar with. Staring at their phone all day, living inside, being anti social. They can now live their best life without judgement.

For the rest of us, adaptation is the key. Get used to it and gear up for change.

Help your mates is a term touted in Australia ever since I can remember. For a while it seemed to run out of a bit of steam which is unfortunate. In some cases, people work on the premises of screw your mate.

When you watch people beating each other over toilet paper, that makes you question the integrity of mates and mate-ship.

In any emergency, you must take care of yourself first. You simply have to or the possibility of two accidents or worse exists. Then when you’re in a good position, try and be of service to others. That’s the true meaning of mates.

You don’t have to give them everything you have! Sometimes it’s just simply a beer and a chat.

Honestly, sometimes it’s the little things that make the biggest differences

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.
