What skills to have BEFORE your dog snaps their leg in half

Monday, July 27, 2026 • Duration 58:19

Other possible titles for this episode included: Sienna's worst day of 2025, Reasons not to own a Malinois, Go big or go home - Fel edition, and Broken bones are no bueno.

This injury happened in Sep of 2025, and this episode was recorded at the end of Oct 2025. Today (July 2026) Felony is pretty much fully recovered and is running loose, free, and at full speed daily. My bank account has still not recovered.

Train your dogs for skills they could need for an injury before you ever need them. Better to have them and never use them, then need them and not have them.

Confidence Building v2.0

Thursday, April 9, 2026 • Duration 41:09

After an extended hiatus we're back where it all began, talking about confidence building! This is being published in Apr 2026, but if you listen to the whole episode you'll find out when we actually recorded this... oops?

To all those who have been asking for more podcast episodes for the last (almost) two years, we appreciate you more than we can say and without you pushing us to start up again, who knows if we ever would have actually done more. You guys are the real MVPs.

(Shout out to Kaiser's owner - the next one is recorded but not edited yet, if it's not out by the end of the month you have full permission to come in person and yell at me.)

Generalization

Friday, March 22, 2024 • Duration 01:02:39

Ever wondered why we called this 'Make it Weird'? If you missed the 60 sec explanation on Tiktok 2 yrs ago, this is the (much) longer version of that. In this episode, Steph and Sienna discuss what generalization is and what you could do to better generalize some of your dog's behaviours. We also hear how Sienna's construction era is going, and definitely don't get very concerned.
