🎙️ New Episode: Choosing the Right Dog Trainer – What You Need to Know

In this episode, we dive into a must-hear topic for any dog owner—how to choose the right trainer for you and your dog.

We explore:

🐾 What qualifications and experience to look for

🐾 Understanding training methods—and why it matters

🐾 🚩 Red flags to watch out for

🐾 The questions you should be asking

🐾 Why personality and approach are just as important as credentials

Drawing from our own experiences as trainers, we share honest insights, practical tips, and have a really in-depth (and occasionally hilarious!) chat about what makes a great trainer—and what doesn’t.

Whether you’re new to dog training or want to check you’re on the right track, this one’s for you.

We barking mad but we wouldn’t have it any other way !!!

In this episode, we’re diving into prey drive – what it is, how it shows up in our dogs, and most importantly, how we can work with it.

Prey drive is a hot topic and one we absolutely loved recording. It’s something most owners and trainers will encounter at some point, especially if you’re working with high-energy or working breeds.

Paula and Georgia both own working dogs, so prey drive is something they manage and work with every day. In this episode, they share their real-world experiences – the challenges, the wins, and why, ultimately, prey drive is something they need in their dogs.

Understanding prey drive is a key part of successful training. It can be one of your greatest assets when channeled correctly — but if left unmanaged, it can just as easily become a curse.

We dive into all of that and more, and we really hope you enjoy the show!
