In this episode of The Canine Paradigm, Glenn Cooke shares his incredible experiences in America alongside his wife, Narelle Cooke. They attended the Feed Real Institute seminar, where leading experts in dog health and nutrition laid out the realities of poor-quality pet food and outlined simple yet effective changes to improve the well-being of our pets. The seminar was eye-opening, highlighting the significant impact nutrition has on both pet and working dogs.

Glenn and Narelle’s American adventure didn’t stop there. They travelled to meet enthusiastic TCP listeners and concluded their trip with a seminar in Virginia, hosted by Melanie Benware. Glenn proudly watched as Narelle captivated attendees over two days with her deep knowledge of canine nutrition. To top it off, Glenn presented a full day on puppy acceleration, offering guidance on how to raise puppies from breeders or rescue situations to reach their fullest potential, tailored to suit the family’s lifestyle.

The trip was not only successful but also enriching, filled with the joy of meeting wonderful people, old friends, and seeing the stunning sights of America. Join us as we recount the highlights, share insights from the seminar, and reflect on the incredible connections made along the way.
