Episode 30: Experimenting

They talk about managing and sometimes modifying our expectations to meet the individual personality traits of the dog. They discuss training in the same arousal state the dog presents in trialing, while always working towards an ideal end picture. The conversation emphasizes the significance of patience, communication, and the acceptance of each dog's unique qualities, while also addressing the pressures trainers face in achieving their goals. Ultimately, the episode highlights the ongoing journey of learning and adapting in the world of dog training.
