Diminishing return is an episode that focus’s around a point of obsession. That area is based around people who too much of something, which throws their life plan out of balance.

For example, think of a student who studies for a job. Once they get the qualification, they then feel that perhaps they should do some more study to stay ahead of the game. Then, after they finish that course, they enrol in another and then another and so on. Now they are in a phase of diminishing return.

In the field of economics, diminishing returns has a different meaning which is, s the decrease in the marginal output of a production process as the amount of a single factor of production is incrementally increased, while the amounts of all other factors of production stay constant.

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.

Patience is a virtue. It’s also one of those traits many of us lose all too often. We all know we should have more of it as it serves us well in so many life aspects. Such as work, family and dog training, just to name a few.

Luck for us we have our beloved Birdy to join us on the show once again to coach both of us in patience. We know we can benefit from it as it highlights so many applications.

Just editing a podcast takes patience. There’s lots of stops and start along the way to get this content cleaned up.

But what about in dog training. When shaping new skills we have to be patient. It takes time to learn new skills for puppies and dogs or any other species.

“Beware the fury of a patient man”.
