Season 3 Episode 52 Know your Dogs Genetics and Purpose, with Bart Rogers and Craig Koshyk K9s Talking Scents

    • How To

In this Episode I speak with Craig Koshyk and Bart Rogers. We discuss the history of breeds and why they do what they do. We go over why we tend to pick dogs they way we do in the USA and what we really need to pay attention to.... more than just what the breed is. Often times decisions are made based off what a handler likes vs what a handler needs. Also, little is considered as to the genetic history of the dog. A pointer is not just a pointer and a lab may not be just a retriever.
