Understanding Your Dog’s L.E.G.S.: Kim Brophey on Agency, Welfare & Needs

jeudi 13 novembre 2025 • Durée 56:11

In this episode, Chantal and Angelique sit down with the extraordinary Kim Brophey , an applied ethologist, award-winning trainer, and creator of the revolutionary Dog L.E.G.S.® model.

This conversation is a must-listen for both pet professionals and dog guardians everywhere. Together, we explore one of the most important and misunderstood topics in modern dog behaviour: agency. Kim dives into why so many dogs actually need less training, not more, and far more support in having their basic needs, instincts, and welfare considerations fully met.

We talk about what happens when we stop viewing dogs through a narrow “obedience” lens and instead recognize them as complex animals shaped by Learning, Environment, Genetics, and Self (L.E.G.S.). Kim explains how behaviour only makes sense when we understand the whole dog, and why giving dogs more choice and control is central to preventing behavioural problems and improving quality of life.

If you’ve ever wondered why your dog behaves the way they do (or how we can radically improve dog welfare by changing our perspective) this episode will change the way you see dogs forever.

The Science of Post-Session Learning

mardi 7 octobre 2025 • Durée 16:22

In this episode, Chantal and Angelique explore a surprising truth about dog training: the most powerful part of learning doesn’t always happen during the lesson. It happens after.

We obsess over timing, cues, and rewards, but science is showing that what dogs do once the training session ends (whether they chew, play, or rest) can make all the difference in how well they remember tomorrow.

Drawing on recent research, including the 2025 Moesta et al. chewing study and multiple play and memory studies by Affenzeller et al. and Salomons et al., Chantal and Angelique unpack how activities after training influence brain chemistry, stress levels, and memory consolidation.

You’ll learn:

Why chewing helps dogs “press save” on new skills
How play boosts motivation and long-term learning, especially for beginners
Why rest and relaxation can sometimes be just as important as the training itself
Practical ways to combine chewing, play, and calm to make learning stick
How to design better training sessions by focusing on the cool-down, not just the reps

From sport dogs and puppies to fearful rescues and reactivity rehab, this episode gives you a science-backed toolkit for helping dogs learn faster, retain more, and enjoy training even more.

Part 1: Can Shock Collars Stop Chasing? Breaking Down the Johnson & Wynne Study

mardi 24 juin 2025 • Durée 14:46

Can you stop a dog from chasing—cars, wildlife, livestock—without using a shock collar?

In 2024, an infamous study by Johnson & Wynne claimed e-collars were more effective than food-based methods for stopping chase behaviour in dogs. And it’s been making waves across the dog training world.

In this episode of Barkology, co-hosts Chantal Karyta and Angelique De Kock dive into the details. As trainers who don’t use shock collars, we believe it’s essential to examine the science so we can advocate for dogs with clarity and compassion.

We explore:

How the study was designed and what they wanted to test
The three training groups (shock collar, food + fast lure, food + gradual lure)
What the results showed and what they didn’t

This is Part 1 of a 2-part series. In Part 2, we’ll look at the published critique of this study, the authors’ rebuttal, what we think and what it all means for ethical, real-world dog training.

Please subscribe and leave a review! We love unpacking the science, challenge assumptions, and helping you stay grounded.
