Life With Your Dog

Brent Dry is passionate about working with people to get the best out of their dog in whatever they are working on. Teaching clients how their dogs learn and why they are behaving in a particular manner is a role that he truly enjoys. When working with clients, Brent likes to empower them with the knowledge of how their dogs perceive their world.  Brent loves the people he's in contact with everyday through his business and he aims to give them everything he can each time they are in a class. I also love mentoring students who are studying to become dog trainers themselves. Giving back to these keen people gives him so much satisfaction. Professionally training since 2008, Brent and his wife Cat have had many dogs including Rottweiler’s, and they now have a Belgian Malinois called Zia. They love learning new techniques to train and different ways to motivate dogs.

The National Dog Trainers Federation (NDTF) Certificate 3 in Dog Behaviour & Training is Australia’s only government-approved and nationally recognised professional dog trainer certificate. It is Australia’s longest running and most comprehensive dog trainer certification program. The course is also a nationally recognised qualification under the Australian Qualifications Framework. The NDTF’s professional dog training courses combine theoretical canine behavioural education with an industry leading ‘hands on’ component. Unlike some other courses, the NDTF has cultivated a team featuring a wide variety of experts from various specialist dog training and canine behaviour-related backgrounds. Most importantly the NDTF does not force its students to take on any particular style of training; there is no ideology to be found here. We would encourage you to be very careful when anyone tries to tell you how you "MUST" conduct yourself, or impose their ideology on you. That advice applies to dog training and beyond! *** Thank you for listening! If you enjoyed the show, please share this episode with someone who would benefit from it.
