Ep. 5 - Protection Sports, Obedience, and Imprinting with Oscar Mora

This episode was originally filmed and posted on my YouTube channel four years ago, but it’s packed with timeless insights and is now available as part of the official podcast launch of The Nate Schoemer Show!

In Episode 5, I sit down with Oscar Mora, a certified decoy in French Ring, Mondioring, and IGP, and the founder of Elevated Canine Academy. Oscar is a respected figure in the world of protection sports and dog training. He holds the distinction of titling the only Mondioring Cane Corso in the U.S., has decoyed at top-level events including two Mondioring nationals and an IGP regional, and has over a decade of professional experience.

Together, we dive deep into:

• 🔹 Puppy imprinting & foundational obedience

• 🔹 Training protection dogs vs. sport dogs

• 🔹 Decoying at elite competitions

• 🔹 Service dog work

• 🔹 Oscar’s philosophy on training and building Elevated Canine Academy

This conversation is loaded with knowledge for trainers, handlers, and anyone passionate about dog training — from beginner to pro.
