    Aggression In Dog Sports

    Aggression In Dog Sports

    This week, Jess and Scott discuss the rise of aggression in dog sports. Whether your dog has human or dog aggression, you are putting others at a huge risk by allowing your aggressive dog to participate in competitions in any dog sport. 
     
    If your dog has an issue with other dogs, what kind of control should you have in a competitive environment? 
     
    Why has aggression in dog sports escalated so much over the past decade? 
     
    Who should be in charge of making sure aggressive dogs are not welcome at competitive events?

Best Dog Podcast Ever!!!

Love listening to Jess and Scott! The Quirky Dog is so entertaining to listen to and very educational!

After having a bad experience in a dog training class, I was hesitant to do any further training, but following Jess and Scott with the Canine Mindshift made it easy and very low stress for me and my dogs! Canine Mindshift led me to The Quirky Dog podcast and every week I learn something new!

Thank you guys for such an enjoyable show! 🐾

Magaly Sandoval ,

Our #1 podcast !

Scott and Jess are my Doggie Bible ! I started listening to their podcast at the height of our behavioral issues with our pup. “Control creates calm” brought me to tears. I am lucky enough to have worked with Scott and Jess in person after that. I listen to their podcast religiously and we love the little quirky tip of the day ! < oink oink > thank you for all you do and if you haven’t checked them out yet, what are you waiting for !?
