  • Episode 309: The ladder of dog aggression
    Aug 11 2024
    n Episode 309 of our podcast, we dive into the critical concept of the canine ladder of aggression. This episode is a must-listen for both new and experienced dog trainers, as we break down the visual tool that illustrates the various levels of aggression in dogs, ranging from subtle signals to more overt behaviours. Using the traffic light system, the ladder of aggression is an essential framework that helps trainers and handlers understand where a dog might be on the spectrum of stress and aggression. This system categorises the dog's behaviour into green, yellow, and red zones, representing calm, warning, and dangerous stages, respectively. Understanding these levels is crucial for preventing escalation and managing situations effectively. By recognising early signs of discomfort, trainers can intervene before a dog reaches a critical point, ensuring safer interactions for both dogs and handlers.

  • Episode 308: Are dog sports linked to Nazis?
    Jul 29 2024
    In a recent podcast episode, we addressed a controversial claim regarding the origins of dog sports, specifically an unfounded assertion that these activities and police dogs have ties to Nazi Germany. However, it is crucial to clarify that the origins of dog sports, such as obedience, agility, and protection work, are deeply rooted in history, well before any association with extremist ideologies. These sports were developed to enhance the bond between humans and dogs, promote physical fitness, and celebrate canine capabilities. Moreover, the spread of misinformation, often perpetuated by content creators on platforms like YouTube, can distort the true origins of dog sports. Some creators, unfortunately, prioritize sensationalism over accuracy to attract views and generate income, which can lead to misleading narratives. Therefore, it's essential for viewers to critically assess the sources of information. Additionally, content creators should uphold standards of accuracy and responsibility to avoid spreading falsehoods.here's an episode where we talk about the building of PSA Further details looking for great dog trainers and supporters of the canine paradigm?

    Jul 14 2024
    In the latest episode of the Canine Paradigm, hosts Pat Stuart and Glenn Cooke dive into the nuanced and often controversial topic of how pharmaceuticals could be affecting the dog training industry. On a on-line discussion with Bill Church, also known as Bow Wow Bill, they discussed the increasing prevalence of medications prescribed to dogs and the implications for trainers and pet owners alike.

The conversation takes a critical look at the over-prescription of SSRIs and other medications, questioning whether the push for these treatments is influenced by pharmaceutical companies' profit motives. They explore the challenges trainers face when working with medicated dogs, emphasising the need for a balanced approach that prioritises ethical practices and the well-being of the dogs. Listeners will appreciate the deep dive into how societal changes, such as those brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic, have further complicated these issues.

  • Episode 305: How to successfully put the dog back on lead
    Jul 7 2024
    Putting the dog back on lead is a fundamental skill that can significantly enhance training and repair various behavioural issues. Experts in the field emphasise the importance of this practice for both novice and experienced dog owners. They believe that putting the dog back on lead helps reinforce obedience, control, and trust between the handler and the dog. This practice can correct behaviours such as pulling, lunging, and ignoring commands. When a dog is back on lead, it must focus on the handler, which strengthens the dog’s response to commands. This consistent practice helps dogs understand their boundaries and the expectations set by their owners. Additionally, putting the dog back on lead can be a confidence booster for both the dog and the owner. It provides a structured environment where the dog can relearn and practice essential skills, making it easier to address and correct unwanted behaviours. The lead acts as a communication tool, guiding the dog and reinforcing positive behaviour. Incorporating this practice into daily training routines ensures that dogs remain well-behaved and responsive. The simple act of putting the dog back on lead is a powerful method to enhance skills, repair training issues, and foster a stronger bond between the dog and the owner.
