In our latest podcast episode, an off-the-cuff remark during the closing segment sparked an unexpected yet profound discussion. The phrase, casually mentioned, was not the main focus of our conversation but we find way to make interesting headings. l

A blog by Larry Krohn a week back led us to explore the contrasting approaches between sport dog trainers and pet owners when faced with challenges.

This casual comment prompted us to delve into how individuals find motivation and resilience in the face of adversity. Sport dog trainers, for instance, often find a way to push through obstacles, such as inclement weather, demonstrating a remarkable level of commitment. Their ability to find consistency in training, regardless of external factors, showcases the importance of perseverance in achieving goals.

Conversely, pet owners might find valid reasons to adjust their training schedules when faced with similar challenges. This flexibility in approach highlights a different kind of resilience, where one finds balance between commitment and adaptability.

The discussion allowed us to find valuable insights into how the mindset we adopt in response to challenges can significantly impact our journey, not just in dog training but in various aspects of life. It’s a reminder that sometimes, it’s the unexpected comments that find a way to resonate with us, offering new perspectives and understanding.

J Humps and the right paw is the story of Jen Humphrey, aka Jen Banks. We both met Jen at the IACP conference in Florida.

Jen has recently had a baby and was eager to share her experience of having a dog school, then becoming a new mother. She also did a re-brand which is where the right paw originated from.

If you want to know what on earth the J humps part is all about, well you had better listen to her interview.

You can check Jen’s website here at the Right Paw

Poking Larry Krohn’s bear isn’t easy to do as Larry is a really great guy. However, like most of us, we have a straw that breaks our back under load and this industry can sometimes do that.

Given that Larry has amassed such a large following of people all over the world, he also get some haters. Most of them are just sad, lonely people, some are people who should know better.

Regardless, Larry is a professional and he still loves to help people and we love to chat with him

As well as being an author and trainer, we got to find out a bunch of things Grisha used to do.

The great part of the podcast interviews is not only meeting and making new friends like Grisha. It’s spending time with people and hearing their back stories. How things came to be and where fate intervened.

Just because you don’t understand it, it doesn’t mean it’s not right. This is an epidemic worse than our current pandemic. It’s nothing new, however it appears to be getting worse. Subjects that people clearly don’t understand are passionate subject matter in conversation.

How can we have so many people claiming knowledge in fields they have no experience? Is it more about drama and entertainment that tantalises the taste buds of the public now?

We only ask that people understand the bare minimum before entering into a logical conversation. At least that way we are all discussing the same topic with some authority.

Our additional advise is, don’t ban everything. Educate, learn and comprehend. Truly understand your subject matter

Uncomfortable questions are a part of everyday life. Most successful relationships are based around dealing what’s uncomfortable.

Those of us in the professional dog training business know it’s unavoidable to have the occasional uncomfortable conversation.

We are no strangers to the uncomfortable questions and responses. It’s not about being nasty or looking for conflict. Many times it’s just dealing with the reality of a difficult process.

It can, if done well be a significant weight to unburden yourself of something that may be a little painful but ultimately beneficial.

Habits of attention whores in ANOTHER episode we have now done in response to people in our industry acting poorly! We actually thought we may have been done for a while after episode 88 but no. So here we are once again.

The dog training industry is full of some of the most amazing people you could ever meet. Many of them are so generous and friendly with hearts of gold. But every yin has its yang which means there are some turds too. These are your every day attention whores. Sad people looking for love in all the wrong places.

We need to be doing a lot better for this industry. we have said that quite a lot now and while things are on the improve, there’s more to be done.
