How To Train Your Dog With Love And Science - Dog Training with Annie Grossman, School For The Dogs
Kids & Family:Pets & Animals
A trainer who goes by the named "Dog Daddy" has millions followers and has recently incited arguments on social media: His critics accuse him of harming dogs and calling it training; his fans accuse his detractors of being sissies who can’t face reality. These two vociferous groups are facing off online and at his in-person events around the world.
Annie puts the saga into the context of a larger (and longer) story about the use of force and coercion in dog training, and gives a nuanced explanation of what defines "balanced" training and what defines trainers that takes a "LIMA" approach. She also investigates Dog Daddy’s background and unconvers some surprising information about how he initially positioned himself to potential clients.
PLUS: The podcast has a new jingle, to go with its... new name!
