- Our Canadian friend Emma Murdock was kind enough to join us on the show this week!
- Emma hails from Ottawa, Canada where she owns & runs one of the largest & most prominent dog training & pack walking services in the city.
- We discussed a bunch of topics including her passion for dogs and also her love of the dog sport called PSA (Protection Sports Association)
- In Emma's own words: "I strive to learn all I can about our canine companions. I invest a significant amount of money and time attending seminars, workshops and conferences each year to improve my skills and broaden my network. We are in it for the dogs, but this industry is really about the people and making their lives better. Expanding your network and working with like minded individuals is so fulfilling and truly helps you be the best that you can be."

- Panos was asked a question about what should be considered when adding an extra dog to your household.
- This isn't an episode about how to assess and match your dog with a new prospective pooch.
- It is more about assessing your own life and the timing of it all.
- Setting emotions aside and consider some rational pointers before committing is always wise.
- Ps. If you are getting or have a new puppy, search for 'PUPPIES 101' to get multiple episodes relating specifically to puppy development and training.

- This week Brittany of "The Pet Girl" joined us via zoom, generously giving her time and expertise on the current state of prong collar bans in the state of Queensland Australia
- We also discussed Brittany's extensive past as a dog trainer, and how she is always on the search to further her own development as a dog industry professional
- From Brittany's website:
-
"If you asked me 6 years ago what I wanted to do with the rest of my life, I had absolutely no idea; I just knew that animals HAD to be a part of it.
-
As a long time dog owner, I had always taken a responsible approach to my dogs’ health and wellbeing, opting for a more natural approach to their lifestyle and more specifically their diets.
-
I found that I was always asking questions beyond the norm and I quickly realised that a lot of the questions I was asking, nobody really knew the answers to. The more I researched and learnt, the more I wanted to share, and this is how The Pet Girl came about.
-
My goal is to help pet parents be informed and smart about pet ownership and do the very best they can. I want to create a generation of pet parents that value having fit, healthy and confident pets that not only survive through life, but absolutely THRIVE.

- Panos answers a question from Nellie in regards to what to do when she is playing fetch with her dog when another dog approaches and her dog causing a scene.
- There are a few remedies to this situation, prevention being the best cure. But the most important thing is, when your rewarding your dog with the ball, you should not allow anyone to take that reinforcement away. It is a 2 player game (you and your dog).
- Good management, advocating for your dog and executing a plan is the best way forward.

- If your dog is fussy, it is most likely caused by you and usually because you love your dog so much.
- Panos sees fussy dogs regularly and shares some advice to help get your dog eating his food again.
- Dogs are not grazing animals and should not have access to food all day long.
- Stop feeding from scraps at dinner time etc.
- Provide windows of opportunity for your dog to understand there is a time and place when food is available and after a set time the opportunity will go away.
- Make your dog understand that food a valuable resource.

- Excellence is mastery of the basics!
- Be patient with yourself, your dog, and know the desired outcome at the start.
- It's not about "fixing" anything, but rather about improving everything piece by piece.
