Outstanding! Science-based, practical, ethical

Great selection of topics, with a good variety of speakers, each allowed to share their expertise with nicely light-handed interview techniques by Melissa Breau. I learn so much, and am motivated to dive deeper. You needn’t be an agility hound to benefit. I’m just a pet owner working on reactivity, health, relationship, and joy. Even those episodes that are essentially previews of classes, outlining what will be taught, are useful — can’t wait to take one! All presenters I’ve heard have been super, but here’s a special shout-out to Irith Bloom for illuminating some complex cognition & emotion topics, and of course Denise Fenzi.

Thank you, Melissa!

This might be my favorite dog podcast. I have such a HUGE appreciation for the host, Melissa! She does such a fantastic job interviewing guests without interrupting or making the show about her. I find it extremely distracting when other popular hosts constantly interrupt their guests to turn the focus back to themselves instead of letting the guest speak.
The content is fantastic, I appreciate the lack of endless ads and I truly get something out of each episode. Thank you, Fenzi!

Love Love Love ❤️
