Shaped by Dog with Susan Garrett

My dogs and I are so grateful for these podcasts! I tend to listen to each episode at least three times, mostly while driving in the car. I always learn something new, gain new insights. I have shared podcast episodes with the professional trainers I work with. They have adopted the approach and use the lessons learned with their other clients. The ripples spread outward ad infinitum!

I love these podcasts. They are so full of good information. I love the science behind it. Learning the psychology of how my dog processes learning as been so interesting and fun. I love watching him work things out. You can see the wheels turning in his brain. Susan Garrett is a terrific teacher both educational and fun.

I grew up around hounds and was taught to train them in not the friendliest of ways. As I grew older I noticed flaws in this approach. Susan Garrett’s podcast has help me to rehabilitate my approach to something that feels right in my soul, training with kindness. I hope that I can pass this training and passion for dogs along to the generations after me.

I wish every down owner could find Susan Garrett’s podcast and YouTube channel. Her approach is pretty different from anything else I’ve come across and so much more effective and enjoyable for both dog and owner.
