Training Without Conflict® Podcast Episode Twenty-Six: Debbie Zapia

In this episode, Ivan interviews the founder of American Schutzhund, Debbie Zappia.

Debbie has had a long, storied history in the sport of Schutzhund, highlighted by her incredible accomplishment of winning the 2015 WUSV World Championship with her dog Iron Von Den Wölfen, becoming the first American AND the first woman to win the WUSV World Championship.

Aside from her World Championship, she has been on the podium countless times with multiple dogs throughout her 30-plus years involved in dog sport.

In 2019, she founded American Schutzhund with the intention to preserve the integrity of the historic sport of Schutzhund and also to continue the tradition of a proving ground for selection of some of the world's top working dogs.

This episode is full of great stories from past competitions, discussion about breeding and selection, training preferences, and many other awesome topics that will entertain anyone interested in dog sports.
