Not the advice I would expect from a positive trainer
In the episode discussing how to prevent separation anxiety, the host suggests letting the puppy cry it out in the crate as an appropriate training method. This is NOT the advice a qualified, positive trainer would give. A puppy crying for extended periods of time is a sign of distress. Letting this go on and on only creates a negative association with being in the crate. Really disappointed as I was so excited to find a podcast specifically about puppies. And the fact that the description says that the host is a positive trainer made me assume this would be a great podcast. As a qualified trainer myself, I do not recommend this podcast.

Debbie Cilento is awesome! She will teach you how to understand why your dog does what it does and have you work around his behavior, not punishing. It’s brilliant and compassionate. I never had a dog until a month ago, and I’m learning so much! The episodes are short and sweet and to the point.
