Today your host, Belgian Shepherd Breed Specialist, Natasja Lewis is joined by Eric Brad CDPT-KA. Eric Brad is a dog trainer, writer,  blogger and Canine Nation podcast host.  Eric is known for his articles on Canine Nation and the Canine Nation Podcast.

In our chat, Eric confesses that he is a cross-over trainer. Having trained his dogs for many years using compulsion and aversives to achieve the obedient dog he always wanted, he got stuck when these dominance-based methods lead to a dangerous confrontation with his 18-month old Belgian Shepherd Vince. Join us for this open and honest chat about how Eric discovered a more positive training method that has changed his and his dogs lives for the better.
