"Nobody Cares About Dog Training Right Now" How To Train Your Dog With Love And Science - Dog Training with Annie Grossman, School For The Dogs
-
- Pets & Animals
Someone on the School For The Dogs mailing list sent Annie an angry email accusing her of being out of touch because, with everything going on in the world, "no one cares about dog training right now." This inspired Annie to outline some reasons why people could, and maybe should, think about dog training and the science of behavior now... perhaps more than ever.
Show notes:
School For The Dogs' studio is closed, but we have lots of great content online: Classes, daily webinars, and FREE virtual private training sessions. We aren't sure how long we will be doing these sessions for free, so take advantage of this opportunity now. Learn more at SchoolForTheDogs.com/services.
Rats get blamed for causing disease but they might've actually been helping keep all of us from getting Coronavirus sooner... Rats have been trained to find endangered pangolins. Pangolins are anteaters, the trafficking of which may have led to this pandemic. Want to see a video of these hero rats? Of course you do.
Woof Shoutout to Dr. Lisa Lippman, who we had on our last episode. Both her parents have COVID-19. We are helping collect supplies for the hospital where they are currently being treated. If you have masks, gloves, or gowns, you can mail them to:

SHOW TRANSCRIPT:
(00:35):
Thanks for being here. I just want to jump into things. I don’t think I need to talk too much about how crazy everything is right now here in New York city and pretty much everywhere. If you're listening to this in the future I hope you, Future Listener, are experiencing less craziness than what we're in right now.
Quick update about School For The Dogs: We did have to close our studio and we had to suspend our walking program. Basically we are more or less shut down as far as our physical space goes. But we're trying to use this time as much as possible to offer training to people online wherever they are, because we feel this is a time when people are in need. And we also want to keep our trainers employed. So we're trying to take advantage of this time to be up our online offerings.
(01:35):
We've been doing daily webinars on lots of different subjects. We are doing free 30 minute sessions right now. We are trying to do everything we can to bring our services to people who are in need right now. People who are home with their dogs, people who are fostering dogs. I am trying to see this as an opportunity to to help people outside of New York city. Obviously we are normally focused New York City residents because that's where our studio is. But thanks to technology, we can reach more people.
