Good!!!

It’s just the second podcast but I m already hooked!! The start of the second one is hilarious “ I just love to talk about punishment’😂😂 … It’s so true every dog, every situation, every handler is so different thank you so much for making this clear . No one concept addresses everything how is this not clear to everyone? Keep coming out with podcasts about dog training options that work

Informative & Fun

Found you on IG… I’m always looking to learn more from balanced trainers. I have a 6 month old rescue mix puppy and she’s doing great… but as you mentioned in your last podcast, consistency in training is key. Thank you for bringing real world circumstances and sharing your expertise with the public. PS I love how it’s a husband wife team on this podcast, the discussion style helps keep things moving along. 5 stars! Keep it up
