In Episode 19: The Future of Dog Training Part 2 our resident qualified behaviourist and host, Hannah Molloy invites world renowned dog trainers Kamal Fernandez and Lez Graham back, to speak openly and honestly about the past, present and potential future of the dog training and behaviour industry.
In this episode we talk about what the future holds for new dog trainers and behaviourists entering the field, how to choose an 'expert' trainer to learn from or be mentored by. We discuss setting a balance between theory and practical learning journeys and how to become a fully well rounded professional in the field.
This conversation follows on from Hannahs 'What if' challenge from episode 18....
'What if...' the future of dog training is world where young trainers can model on older trainers from a variety of backgrounds that are able to hold space for people they might disagree with, and learn to listen with love and engage in open minded discourse and debate together.
