Welcome back to the Dog Tribe Podcast! In this episode, we're thrilled to have a special guest, Tommy V, joining us. Tommy's journey with dog training began at the young age of 13, igniting a lifelong passion for working with our four-legged friends.
Hailing from Wetteren, Belgium, Tommy immersed himself in a protection sports club early on, where he honed his skills in training high-level competition dogs. His talent as a decoy quickly became evident, leading to invitations to competitions across Europe. Remarkably, at just 18 years old, Tommy became the youngest decoy ever to participate in the world championship.
In our discussion, we delved into the intricacies of bitework development and explored effective strategies to enhance your dog's performance around decoys.

Sal is an up-and-coming entrepreneur in the dog training industry, and he visited Chicago for a mentorship opportunity as he gears up to launch his facility, Complete K9 Services, in New Jersey this spring. Over three days, we collaborated on his business and engaged in training sessions together. During these sessions, we explored a Sales Process tailored for facilities and dog trainers.
