Cog-Dog Radio

A conversation about how we can best care for our sport dogs.

I talk with Katie Gingrich, owner/operator of Pets Crave Love in Austin Texas about putting the four steps to behavioral wellness to work in pet dog care.

A conversation with Dr Patti Mahoney

In a candid conversation with my friend Aimee Bonnain we talk about getting training wrong on the way to getting it right, and the nature of training as an applied science.

A podcast update where I cover seminars, my new chickens, and the recent passing of pioneer scientist Raymond Coppinger.

In the final installment about Dani the sheltie we talk to Dani's human, Graham and get his take on training a reluctant dog.

In Dani Part Two we get into the details of what we did with this special dog. Teaching her she is never wrong, showing her that she can tackle challenges, and letting her see her world in a way she never had. Enjoy!

Dani, the little sheltie that could! She was shy, scared, and shut-down. Her transformation is one of my favorites. Enjoy!

Dogs that "stress down," the difficulties of counterconditioning noises, and how play matters.

More on the reflexive (or not) nature of barking, dealing with handler-focused dogs in agility, and training your students with positive reinforcement. Plus, what's up next for The Cognitive Canine?
