After one of the more enjoyable dog events I've been a part of in quite a while, I sat down with long time friend of the show, Grayson Guyer, and newer friend of the show, Jake Bartells, to recap the event and bat around ideas of why we thought it was so successful.

It made us curious as to what else might be possible within the

2024/02/06

Very often we need more perspective when it comes to knowing how to handle and train our dogs beyond just the How To. However, understanding theory doesn't mean much unless you know how to implement the concepts. Stephanie Vichinksy of Method K9 joins us to try and advocate for all dog owners to become the most well rounded trainers they can be and that means not only knowing how to train but why it does or doesn't succeed!

Gun Dog It Yourself ·

2024/01/30

Mark Coleman has spent years educating himself on dog training even though he primarily uses a pro trainer due to not having the resources one might need or want to train their own dogs. He recognized that even when you send your dog off to the pros, you still need to understand and be able to maintain that training once you get the dog back. Through his self education journey, he recognized there are common threads between all quality trainers and the one he likes to focus on is the mental side of
