    In this episode of A Dog’s Eye View, we welcome Tracy Franken of Beyond Obedience in Nova Scotia, Canada. The conversation is rich with heartfelt stories, laughter, and deep insights into dog training, leadership, and personal growth. Tracy shares her unconventional journey into the world of dog training, from working as a veterinary technician to running a daycare and eventually transitioning to an online coaching and mentorship. She discusses her experiences with a pack of 19 dogs, how she discovered her instinctual approach to dog behavior, and the profound lessons she’s learned from them—most notably, the importance of fun in leadership. The discussion touches on controversial topics in dog training, such as the reliance on treats, training equipment, and the impact of industry debates on dog owners. Tracy passionately emphasizes the message that dog owners are enough—a perspective that has deeply influenced her work with fearful dogs through her Fearless Framework Program. Together we share emotional reflections on the loss of dogs, the identity shift that comes with losing a pack, and how our relationships with dogs continue to teach us even after they’re gone. The episode ends with a lighthearted discussion about Tracy’s upcoming plans—including the mystery of her next puppy! This episode is packed with wisdom, humor, and powerful stories every dog owner and trainer can relate to.
