Off Leash And Unfiltered: The Truth In Dog Training – Details, episodes &amp; analysis

Doggy daycare and dog parks carry a high level of risk and a very low level of benefit. What has become obvious to me over the years is that a lot of dogs don't actually enjoy themselves in these environments but that it just isn't always obvious. Until it is. And that is often post training because your dog is now used to being in environments where dogs are under control and someone is advocating for them. In this episode I talk about exactly that as one of our clients had this experience after her training program.

What are the mistakes that everybody is making with this trendy command? Well, we are going to tell you how to turn your dog into the best version of themselves leveraging ..you guessed it, place.

The Trade Game—No Bueno—Teach Your Dog to Give Things Up

Episode 98

lundi 13 octobre 2025 • Duration 30:13

Do you have to "trade" your dog things to get things from them? This is really common, and although it sometimes works, it might not always. Even if it does work, we discuss the reasons it's generally a bad idea to play the trade game or bribe your dog to give you something it has in its possession.

So what the best way is to take an item away from a dog without the conflict of having to reach in and physically take the item away (which we never do). Bones, food, toys, household items..doesn't matter. You need to be able to remove things from your dog's possession safely.

In this episode I talk about how you can 100% take anything away from your dog at any time, but without conflict or risk of a bite. You will also get your dog into a more respectful headspace with these tips. And really instill that humans control the resources which is the safest way for your dog to see the world.

No, really, stop doing that! Why dog training fails.

Season 1 · Episode 5

mercredi 18 octobre 2023 • Duration 23:20

Over the years, I have met so many people who are genuinely committed to getting results, but they just haven't been able to. In many cases they have already been to several different trainers, and often have spent thousands of dollars to no avail.

If you can relate, or know someone who can, you want to listen. I'm going to point out what is lacking in the vast majority of these cases.

Your Dog Doesn't Know What "No" Means—Reward Markers And Punishment Markers

Season 1 · Episode 4

vendredi 13 octobre 2023 • Duration 12:48

Knowing how to properly mark behavior is critical to being effective and efficient! Your dog is the master at discovering patterns, and that means details matter. Your minor inconsistencies will translate into pattern disruptions that throw your dog off and drag out the process.

Also, most people only have positive markers. Stop giving your dog 50% of the information and expecting results. The word "no" is not a correction. And it isn't a marker until you teach the dog what it means.

Why Cookies Won't Work

Season 1 · Episode 2

dimanche 8 octobre 2023 • Duration 20:44

Cookies absolutely have their place! But it doesn't really belong in stopping bad behaviors. Well, not really. Positive reinforcement can be a very powerful ( and dangerous) tool in dog training. If it is the only tool you are using, you might be shooting yourself in the foot.

What's The Story You Tell Yourself About Your Dog's Behavior?

Episode 98

vendredi 10 octobre 2025 • Duration 36:02

All too often we get calls for dog behavioral issues AFTER something goes completely off the rails like someone gets bit, but often there were signs right along that things were headed in the wrong direction. Aggression, guarding, separation anxiety, etc.

That being said, can things change or develop suddenly? Did your dog have a traumatizing event that led to a change in behavior? If your dog is pretty well behaved are we sure we are seeing what we think we are seeing, so we aren't caught off guard later by our dog "turning" or "snapping" suddenly?

I'm going to tell you what we really see happening in most of these cases and it involves the natural process of your dog growing up.
