So excited to hear about the ideas and project in this podcast. Great episode.
I love this podcast. Such a wide range of different topics it's given me a lot of help with how to manage my high drive dog - not just about sports, it's about supporting your dog generally, and the trainers talk about general life lessons etc.
Fabulous podcast. There's actually something in it to help dogs at all levels. This foundation is something that can be repeated down the line in the dog's training life. Thanks!!
