Thoroughly enjoying the in-depth conversations on the gundog breeds and how they intersect with positive training concepts

I’m really loving Jo’s books, courses and now podcast, as I delve into the world of gun dogs. Jo is brilliant at explaining complex topics in simple ways, and is a breadth of knowledge. I’ll be recommending her podcast to many friends and colleagues!

Such a great find! Working on a lot of these exercises with a young dog who hasn’t had any real training before and we have come on SO much with heel work and recall already. I’ve started one of the courses too and finally feel happy with our progress. Thank you so much for this, I’m still on the...Read full review »

Very interesting...Appreciated this so much. Had a similar experience with a different breed. Looking forward to the next episode in the behaviour trilogy.

Thank you, Jo! I especially loved your latest episode where you share your journey with Fire.

I have Jo’s force free training book and only recently found the podcast. It is fantastic to listen to and gives so much detail in each episode that is easy to understand and implement. Have recommended to a few of our gundog training friends. The more positive, force free training, the better!

Hi Jo, As always, your latest episode is great. Just wanted to mention Lucky Dog brand bumpers are also BPA free. For those on a budget, they are useful bumpers and almost half the price of Airflow bumpers.

Thanks Jo for the time & effort you put into your podcasts. I find them extremely informative being new to the Gundog world but also interesting, especially the interviews you do. Your balance is about right, not too ‘nerdy’ but equally cover subjects to a depth that someone who is interested...Read full review »

Fantastic podcast this week on all different kinds of blinds. Very clearly explained and very informative. So many ideas to take away and put into practice in training. Thank you Jo!

In the gundog world there are many different trainers each with their own take on how things should be taught based on their own experience on what has worked for them in the past. This podcast is well written and explains in exquisite detail how to do exercises, such as the marking exercises...Read full review »

Jo, thank you so much for creating this. What a comprehensive series, from general discussions on positive training methods, to dealing with distractions/ arousal and increasing engagement, to practical things to take forward into training sessions like the clicker retrieve. Can’t remember life...Read full review »

loved this podcast. Just recently had to stop doing gundog work with my dog and started competition obedience and have exactly the problem you mention. Obedience trainers use a lot of food and my dog is also used to food rewards in gundog work - so trained him to look at me while walking /...Read full review »

Jo is bringing a much-needed look at positive gundog training for those of us here in the USA! So happy to have found this excellent podcast, with interesting interviews and tutorials and discussions of topics related to force-free gundog training. Would also highly recommend the Clicker Retrieve...Read full review »

This was a great conversation! There were a few epiphanies. Many moons ago I trained labs adversely for hunting. I trained other dogs too, adversely. I thought that you had to be dominant to have control and it also gave me an avenue to”vent” some of my internal frustrations of feeling a victim...Read full review »

Love the weekly podcasts great variety and guests and subjects covered. I look forward to my time in the car getting to listen to what I can learn each week

I’m loving this podcast, as an R+ trainer myself it’s really nice to find a podcast on gundogs (especially pointing/HPRs) discussing R + methods. It’s always been fairly obvious to me that retrieves (for both hunting and Tess/trials) can be easily trained via R+ methods ... however listening to...Read full review »

Any Gundog trainer or owner will find something useful here. Wide ranging topics and balanced perspectives on force free training. Love it.

Really enjoying listening to this podcast. Interesting and well presented. The interviews so far have been very informative.
looneylabs via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 05/12/19
What a lovely idea. Thanks Jo for making this series. Have now caught up and really looking forward to the next. Loved the one on Marking and the interviews, am learning lots (always a good thing) and through a really accessible channel which means I can do other things at the same time if I need...Read full review »

Very informative, and nice to listen to while driving to and from training ;-) Looking forward to coming episodes!

Having read through Jo’s Dog Works information sheets on the Positive Gundogs Facebook page, it’s now great to have a podcast discussing gundog training topics. Some very useful information and easy to follow the advice in your own training. Thank you Jo and I’m looking forward to listening to more.

We have signed up to one of Jo’s puppy classes with our 12 wk lab called Oka, with the view to signing up to DogWorks gun dog training classes down the line. This podcast was a great way to find out more about Jo and get an overview of her background and abilities. We can’t wait to meet you and...Read full review »
