This podcast series is an ever-advancing learning journey that broadens the mind and changes the way we view working with dogs.

The dog behavioural world is saturated with terminology and trending techniques. In this episode, Billie explains what Impulse Control is and how it can be misunderstood and/or taught incorrectly, using the examples of training videos provided online. She uses client examples to explain the importance of understanding the purpose of impulse control exercises.

NOTE: This podcast series is not intended to criticize trainers or debunk methods. The examples, exercises and videos provided are ones that my clients commonly refer to or ask me about.

Season 5 is a "Dogology" (kinda like a mixology) of tips, Q and A's, interviews, discussions and a deeper look into the 3 components of UPWARD Dogology all with the goal of increasing awareness and making the world a better place for all animals, including humans! Season 4 is interviews with people and organizations that help animals. Increase your awareness and be part of the solution by listening, sharing, and reviewing.  Season 3 dives deep into trending methods. Are they right for you and your dog? Season 2 shares the learning journey of my clients with dogs with different issues and backgrounds; always interesting and a great way to feel a connections with others who have similar experiences.  Season 1 starts by sharing my unique learning journey and then dives into why positive reinforcement training (and practices under that "umbrellas") are often limiting, ineffective and/or counter-productive with dogs over 6 months. It finishes with an introduction into cognitive behavioural therapy and UPWARD Dogology.
