    Dog Asked a Question...Is That Bad?

    You're tackling a search with your dog. They have found a few hides and there are one or more hides left. Suddenly, they stop and look back at you. They are not near anything, they are not alerting...no, they are asking a dreaded question! Now what?! Is this the end of the world? What does mean?! What do you do?! In this episode, we discuss the meaning behind our dog's asking questions in Scent Work, what this can look like and how questions are not necessarily "bad", but rather information. Once we catch our breath and calm ourselves down, we can use this information. Perhaps to decide what next steps to take, or ways we can provide more clarity to our dog or maybe identify a weakness we didn't know existed before. Having this information is critical if we wish to continue to progress in our Scent Work training. Speaker: Dianna L. Santos ----more---- TRANSCRIPT Read the full transcript here.

    Perspectives and Blind Spots

    It is far too easy to develop blind spots when training or trialing with our dogs, working with clients, designing searches as a trial official, finding or running trials as a host or evaluating rules or regulations as a competition organization staff member. Our perspective may be rather limited, causing us to not see the fullest and most accurate picture possible. This skewed perspective may then color the decisions we make, the training plan we put together, how we evaluate our team's progress and so on. In this episode, we discuss the importance of obtaining outside perspectives. Even having a family member or friend set out a hide for us every now and again may be incredibly enlightening! Our hope is this episode will cause everyone to consider how their perspective may be slanted or incomplete, what their blind spots may be and how they can further illuminate their "map of possibilities".

    Art of Giving and Receiving Information

    Instructors are tasked to share their knowledge and expertise with their human clients in such a way that the client can then internalize, understand and interpret that information for their dog. This is no easy task! However, it becomes close to impossible if the way this information is packaged causes the client to not want to receive it.  In this episode, we discuss the art of giving and receiving information. Tone, facial expressions, body behavior are all important factors. Exhaustion, burnout and frustration can further complicate the situation on both sides of this divide. We must openly discuss the need to take a breath, modify and adjust our approaches the very same way we advocate when working directly with our dogs. Instructors and clients should see one another as teammates and partners, not adversaries.  Speaker: Dianna L. Santos ----more---- TRANSCRIPT Read the full transcript here.

    Importance of Flexibility

    It is all too common to find ourselves making statements such as, "At this stage, I should do THIS" or "After this STEP, I follow this STEP and then that STEP." What's the issue you may ask? Well, this line of thinking is rather concrete. Individual needs of the dog, handler or team, unique factors for that given search, environment or training session or trialing search are not taken into account.  In this episode, we discuss the importance of being more flexible both when we are training and trialing in Scent Work and how challenging being flexible can be!

    Is the Issue Scent Work Related?

    It is interesting how when it comes to Scent Work, everything is seemingly viewed through the lens of the dog's ability to hunt and source their hides. If something doesn't go well, that means we must do more searches, right? In this episode, we discuss how there are so many skills a dog, handler and team need to be successful in Scent Work, many of which have absolutely nothing to do with hunting or odor! Thus, there are times drilling more searches may be the last thing we want to do. Speaker: Dianna L.

    Keeping It Safe: The Choices We Make Matter

    The choices we make regarding our reactive, sensitive and aggressive dogs is an important conversation to have. It is paramount that safety be a significant factor. This is especially true when we are considering whether to trial with our dog or not. We delve into this important topic in this podcast episode. If your dog is struggling with behavioral issues, please seek out professional, reputable help. This professional should be experienced in working with behavioral cases. Ideally, this professional will come and meet with you for an in-person initial consultation, to get a full grasp of what is going on. Afterwards, they may provide virtual follow-up sessions.  Here are some resources to find reputable professionals with behavioral expertise: Certification Council of Professional Dog Trainers (CPDT) International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants (IAABC) Other professional dog trainer directories: Karen Pryor Academy CATCH Dog Trainers Academy The Association of Professional Dog Trainers  Other resources: AggressiveDog.com Behavior Vets Grisha Stewart - BAT Training Conference Unleashed - Leslie McDevitt (Control Unleashed) and other speakers Relationship Centered Training Skills for Reactive Dogs with Suzanne Clothier Emma Parsons - Click to Calm and Teaching the Reactive Dog Class Fired Up, Frantic and Freaked Out by Laura VanArendonk Baugh Virtual Trialing Options: Cyber Scent Work NACSW Skills Challenge Fenzi Team Nosework ----more---- TRANSCRIPT Read the full transcript here.
