let's try this again... Our good buddy, Oliver Burman at Foundation Retrievers, joins us to reminisce about the Master National. We run through the prep work leading up to the test and each series and how each dog handled it (the good and the bad). The few weeks out west were enjoyable, humbling and exciting. Cheers to clients, family and friends for supporting Lone Duck. Now let’s get onto huntin...

Tonight we enjoy speaking with a repeat guest and friend, Grayson Guyer from Lost Highway Kennels. Our show gets pretty deep and discusses human connections and how that connection works with dogs, too. We catch up with Grayson and hear about his upcoming plans for the NAVHDA Invite and how his feelings match Bob's with Master Stashionals '21. Grayson gets into some info about snake breaking dogs...

A few weeks back, a true dog man (KD Mathews) came to hang out and share some stories. KD lives down in sunny Florida and has been in the dog training business for the past 30 years and the reason is because he asks questions. Then he asks more. He asks the owners questions and in turn, teaches the owners about their dogs before really even teaching the dogs. Then ya know, he teaches the dogs, too...

Today's show was certainly a special one. We had the pleasure of speaking with 1st Lt. Amber English... but you might know her more as the bad to the bone wingshooter with nerves of steel who earned the gold medal at the Tokyo Olympics. Amber has been competing for years and is currently shooting on the AMU team in the United States Army, so she has the coolest job ever. We learn about her time in...

We had a good hanging out with Clark Kennington. He is truly one of the greats. We chatted through the hunt test he ran up here in NY and ran through the good and bad from it. We then dig into some of his philosophy for training dogs and how he's been successful over the years in all sorts of tests. *Also, Shorty's Pub n Grub should be a podcast sponsor....

Anyway, we have a great time talking about how Doug got started working with dogs, new products from his dog supply compa...

Our good buddy Adam Campbell is back on our show to talk dogs and catch up. Since we've last seen him, he and another buddy of ours, Jimmy Rodgers, have created an awesome podcast called The Dog House with Adam and Jimmy. If you're a fan of our show, then you'd enjoy theirs. We talk about Adam's dogs and how hot the weather can be for dog training where he's from. Adam gives some warm weather trai...

Tonight's episode is one of my favorites so don't miss this. First, I really enjoyed the opener and chatting about the brands we like... I got Bob off topic and he got all flustered. Next, we learn how Bob is doing with the adopting some of Oliver's training techniques (if you're wondering what those might be, check out the previous 2 episodes). We also talk about the most recent hunt test where a...

Tonight's show was a great time and we tried something new: recording during a live stream with our friends on patreon. We hung out and answered some of their questions and were able to interact quite a bit, so we had a really good time and appreciate those who could make it. We catch up with Oliver and get his thoughts on a few specific training scenarios. This was a fun one, I think you'll enjoy...

We've had a lot of people ask questions about mini t, t pattern, how do you get a dog to sit on a whistle, why does my dog loopy sit, etc., so tonight, we're tackling all of it. Bob and I catch up a little but we dig right into the meat of the show and try to thoroughly explain the process from start to finish and when to notice triggers along the way. These "triggers" are little things to watch f...

Well, we're not really numbers guys so we missed celebrating our 100th episode, so we're cheersing to 101.

Bob and Todd bounce back and forth on various ways to train a dog, how dogs learn and why Todd chooses thi...

That goes double when their stories are from South Africa and they're hunting coo...
