Description

A no-nonsense approach to dog training, so you never have to yell, "It's OK, he's friendly!"


In this show, hosts Jack Laurence (dog owner and training enthusiast) and Max O'Neil (accredited dog trainer and behaviour expert) from Down Under Dog Trainer discuss everything about the world of dogs and dog training.


When you open social media today, you can’t go far without finding a ‘dog trainer’—and everyone has their own strong opinions on what is ‘right’ and what is ‘wrong’. In this podcast, we take a balanced approach to the subject, looking at training methods from both sides of the fence and giving you the right tools to have the perfect companion you've always dreamed of.


Whats veen better is the only fluff here is from the dogs! as we get straight to point on all the important topics that matter to you!


Got a question, an issue or just need some advice? jump on our provate FB group and ask your question now!
