Roger, an avid listener of our podcast, has sent in a question following on from EP12- Why do we have dogs in our lives? Panos goes into some detail about what to consider when giving advice on why people should train their dog, how they should train their dog and how to make them take it seriously. This can be a hard task, the best answer of which Roger had already stated is, be a good role model, practice what you preach and help inspire others to take on the task of being the best person for their dog. *** Thank you for listening!

Happy New Year to all our listeners! Panos reflects on his lessons of the year. It has been a wild year personally, professionally and globally. The reason why Panos has dogs and dedicates himself to dog training is that dogs complement our lives, and should not complicate them. He wants owners to learn from their dogs just as much as we teach them. Remain disciplined, maintain what we already have before adding more, and having structure but switching up routines. *** Thank you for listening!

This question comes from our listener Paul, who's wondering how small dog syndrome works and if it's real. Panos explains his thoughts on the topic and what it means when a small dog is reactive to everything around them. Is it their ego, because they think they are bigger than what they actually are? Or are they fearful which results in the barking, lunging and snapping? *** Thank you for listening! If you enjoyed the show, please share this episode with someone who would benefit from it.

Panos had the opportunity to sit with Alex Edwards and discuss topics from Alex's socialisation classes, stories of his 5 dogs, how Covid has affected our dogs, Alex's journey abroad learning from some of the world's top dog trainers and much more.  Alex owns and runs Refine Your Canine Dog Training. He is a Melbourne based dog trainer with over 7 years experience. Alex is very passionate about dogs and effective dog training. Proper dog training creates a special bond between the owner and the dog that enhances the experience of dog ownership. Alex has a special natural ability with dogs that can only come from a lifetime of dog ownership and a love of dogs. Alex is a firm believer that training your dog should be fun and challenging. He believes that the dog should want to come back every time. The dog should feel that it has learned something, achieved something and also enjoyed the day. Dogs that train with Alex are testimony to this, many of them getting very excited when they know they are going to doggy school. Alex specialises in time efficient dog training, focusing on getting the best results in the shortest time. So he uses time proven methods but leaves plenty of room for fun and innovation. He is always looking for new ways of improving the experience and adding to the enjoyment of training sessions for both owner and for the dog. He has dog training programs for basic to advanced dogs, from puppies to adult. *** Thank you for listening! If you enjoyed the show, please share this episode with someone who would benefit from it.
