Life With Your Dog

• What are our dogs' critical distances that they need to be away from people or other dogs, in order to set ourselves up for success?

• It was a great honour to interview Michael as he has been an inspiration to Panos since the beginning of his career.
• Michael's online courses and content has shaped and influenced so many trainers worldwide for the best.
• We discussed topics such as behaviour modification, the complexities of behaviour theory and its application in real dog training. We went down some quite a few rabbit holes!
• Panos and Michael also discussed a foresight into the dog training industry over the next 20-30 years.
• Tune in to see what Michael's feelings are for the future of dog training.

• Tim is an ex-correctional officer, who worked in the canine unit for 13 years working and training dogs for specific tasks from the tactical unit to scent dogs.
• From dealing with issues that came from the nature of the job and the intense environment, Tim has been on a journey of self development which propelled him to start his own company, Diverse Dogs.
• Tim joined Panos for a great conversation ranging from technical training, purpose selected dogs, to help fix behavioural issues for everyday dog owners.
• We also went on a deep dive on breath work and how that has positively impacted Tim's life and furthermore how he implements it into some of his sessions with clients struggling with anxiety and tunnel vision (when dealing with problem behaviours).
• Panos and Tim resonated on many levels and was an inspiring conversation. We hope you find it enjoying!
