Episode 4 - Covid puppies

In this episode I am talking to my friend and great trainer, Colleen Hild. We are talking about the challenges of raising a puppy through the sensitive socialisation periods of puppyhood during the Covid-19 pandemic. This information not only applies to puppies but also to young adult dogs.Colleen has been training dogs since a young age, but left the corporate sales world only 4 yrs ago to purse Her passion as a full-time career.  She earned her Certificate in Canine Studies from the Northwest School of Canine studies and launched her own business, Colleen Dog Training, in 2016. Her services include board & trains, private training, Day training and group classes. While Colleen Works with all ages and breeds, she has chosen to specialize in puppies. She has done training and group classes for Seattle Puppyworks and the Seattle Humane Society. She is a mother of 2 adult children and a boxer mix rescue, and resides in Redmond WA (part of the greater Seattle area)NOTE - there is only one swear word in this episode which is why we have had to check the EXPLICIT content box. We covered it with humour and it is down to two cultures separated by the same language!

Some ifs great for you, for your dog, other training techniques hurt the relationship between you and your dog. Cut through the clutter, the folklore and myth and find out what is best for you and your dog.
