The Keep It Simple Stupid DOG Training Podcast is for dog owners who want practical, real-world answers without all the unnecessary complication.
Hosted by Mike Deathe, owner and trainer at K.I.S.S. Dog Training in the Kansas City area, the podcast tackles the problems dog owners actually face—leash pulling, potty training, barking, jumping, reactivity, puppies, behavior problems, and building better routines at home.
With more than 18 years of experience and roughly 10,000 in-home training sessions, Mike uses positive reinforcement to help owners better understand, manage, and train their dogs in everyday life.
Dog Training Ain’t Cheap… Experience Counts.
