Poodle People Elise and Karin (Hosts of Poodle People)

As we bring Season 1 to a close, Elise and I reflect on my idea to start a podcast, and then chat with our guest Heather Blakeman, CPDT-KA. Heather received her Certified Professional Dog Trainer - Knowledge Assessed accreditation from the independent certification council, CCPDT, in 2017, is a Fear Free Certified Professional, a Professional Member of the APDT, and is a Certified AKC CGC Evaluator.

This week we’re talking to licensed vet tech Brittany Magill about emergency preparedness. If you live in Arizona and would like to utilize Brittany’s concierge vet tech services, check out jbmagillvettech.com for more information!

This week Karin and Elise catch up with owner and head trainer, Chris Miara from Rosetree Dog Training in Lexington, KY. Later, Karin talks about a new grooming purchase.

We talk with Angel Carmona and Sydney Abel about how they are starting to train their poodle puppies to become service dogs.

Elise and Karin talk about how helpful it is to join a dog community that meets and furthers your needs, whether you are new to poodles or new to the show / sports world.

We get a 10-week pupdate as more pups head to their permanent homes, and we talk to Dr. Micah Halpern about GenSol Diagnostics, including how his own dog’s condition led to the start of GenSol and how his company makes genetic testing easier for breeders and veterinarians.
