Interviewing Pat Nolan was a great honour for us as it is with all our guests. It always adds to the polish when you have someone who is considered a cornerstone in our industry. Pat Nolan is a name deeply connected to the canine industry mainly through his long career in gun dogs.

Now when people think of Pat, they consider the early work he contributed to our modern day scent work.

This was one of the many interesting points of discussion we had in this podcast. starting with puppy imprinting and moving into the career of a working dog.

Many of the great operators in this industry have gained their ideas from people like Pat Nolan.

Tyler Muto Round 2. If you remember last time we had Tyler on out show, like many of guests, he got to tell us his origins. If you don’t recall his original interview, go here

Now he’s back and we get down to chatting about some odd trends.

People are bragging about how they don’t train their dogs to be obedient. Some of the the points may sound quite silly, however we go into detail with Tyler to discuss various meanings behind the claim.

Tyler is a very well educated guy and he is highly intellectual and very pragmatic. Having just finished his term as president for the IACP, Tyler is now focusing his energies on his next project, Consider the Dog.

Apart from all his accomplishments, Tyler is an all round good guy, a great ambassador for training, defender of the balanced community and one of our close personal friends.

We really enjoyed having Round 2 with Tyler Muto and we are looking forward to round 3.

Hopefully you enjoyed it as much as we did.

Moments to be proud of was a hard episode for both of us to record.  For Pat it was difficult to relive something that caused a lot of raw emotion.  For Glenn it was a high degree of shock to hear the story.

This story unfolds around a young boy and his mum that Pat helped train an assistance dog.  Although it sounds simple enough, it came with some heavy baggage for everyone.

The story is still far from finished, however there have been some incredible breakthroughs, both via a mothers love and Pats persistence and compassion.

Mental illness is a serious issue that has serious implications requiring the right people for treatment.  It also carries a stigma as people don’t know how to behave or what to say.  The best thing you can do though is be supportive and not judgemental.  Learn more about it and how you can better help.

We have done several episode now on mental health and we will definitely do more in the future for both humans and dogs.  This is why having a contact like Birdy O’Sheedy is so helpful and healthy as she understand both fields.

If you don’t feel great and the world is getting difficult, speak to someone.  You’re not a burden.  You’re not invalid.  You have people that love you and people that do want to be supportive.

We would love to hear what you moments to be proud of are too.

We have several episode as suggested that would be worth listening to, to support the above.

Dealing with difficult clients and people is a show we have danced around for a while but decided to finally do it.  Anyone in business or life, has moments where discussing issues with people can be difficult.

We all have different ways and recommendations of managing these outcomes to attempt to better resolve the outcome.

Glenn and Pat share a few of many experiences over the years of dealing with some of the more memorable people and how they worked on the outcome.

Conflict resolution is a big business in this day and age with books, seminars, pod-casts and more.  Add animals to that mix and you can sometimes be looking at a bigger explosion.

An earlier episode we did, http://www.thecanineparadigm.com/2018/07/18/episode-36-keeping-sane-in-the-dog-industry/ helps a little for trainers and industry people when they need a time out.

You can also check in with our resident psychologist, Birdie O’Sheedy for some back to sanity assistance.

Glenn and Pat and a whole bunch of sweaty Aussies have returned from the IACP conference in Tampa Bay Florida with a whole bunch of stories and a podcast that was done in Glenn’s hotel room that will be following soon from the IACP wrap up.

We meet with some amazing people and had an awesome time networking and sharing stories and experiences, dancing on the beach, getting intoxicated at the gala and generally having a lot of fun together.

We had a lot of amazing feedback on the show from a lot of USA residents and several of the Canadian crew that were too.  We cannot express our appreciation from you guys for following our show and offering such supportive feedback.  it was overwhelming.

We were also advised that we should be making a Patreon account, which we have done to help sponsor the show.

Much love again to all those who make time to listen to our podcast.
