As the year draws to a close, we’re excited to present our end-of-year podcast, “The Rising Tide Lifts All the Boats.” This episode is not just a reflection on the past year but a heartfelt message of gratitude and inspiration. We’ve seen that when we focus on self-improvement and foster kindness, just like boats in a rising tide, we all lift together.

Throughout this year, our community of listeners has been the wind in our sails, guiding us through both calm and turbulent waters. Your support has been a beacon of encouragement, and for that, we extend a warm, heartfelt thank you. As we discuss in this special episode, the metaphor of boats rising together encapsulates our vision for a world where bettering oneself inherently betters others. It’s about moving away from self-sabotage and the sabotage of others, and instead, steering towards a horizon of collective upliftment.

This Christmas, as we reflect on the year gone by and anticipate the new one, let’s continue to be the tide that raises all boats. Let’s commit to being kinder, to pushing ourselves and each other towards greatness, and to creating a community where everyone rises together. Here’s to a new year of lifting each other up, just as boats rise together on a rising tide. Thank you for being an integral part of our journey.

Surviving Christmas is about enduring the fatigue which comes at this time of year for almost everyone. Ideally, Christmas should be about spending time with loved ones and if your religious, it about the birth of Christ.

It has however become a hard time of year for so many people for many different reasons. It’s also a time of year where we need to be more vigilant about our dogs, their behaviour and eating habits.

There’s many reasons why this year can be stressful, however we would hope that you do make time to find the love in it.

Thank you for being a part of our TCP family.

Have a Merry Christmas

It’s me isn’t it? The words most trainers hear after they have spent a little time working with clients. Yes, it’s you. It’s not a terrible process for clients to come to terms with either.

Once your clients accept they have had a major impact on their dogs education, or lack of, we can progress.

After all, our job is not to judge or embarrass them. We are there to serve and coach and to improve the overall relationship. When this happens, true language develops and it’s a beautiful thing to behold.

No more excuses, minimal problems and manageable dogs who understand you. What you telling them is now clear and they can hear you.

If you’re having trouble with your training, reach out to a reputable trainer.

Pat can be reached at Operant Canine

Glenn can be reached at Canine Evolution

Now instead of saying, I’s me isn’t it? I’m the problem. You start to say, I’m the solution.
