Visit us at shapedbydog.com    I get a lot of questions about my dogs, and we’re covering some of your most popular. Have you ever wondered why our rescue Bulldog mix, Tater-Salad, is the “fall guy”? Or which one of my dogs is the smartest (the answer is NOT who you might think it is)? Do you wonder how to select a dog training class or what to do when you have a male dog and your female dog is in season? I’m answering those questions and more!   In the episode you'll hear:   • About Tater’s secret life as an actor. • Which one of my dogs is the smartest. • What dog sport I would do if I didn’t compete in dog agility. • Where my dogs sleep at night and how often I feed my dogs. • Why naughty is in the eye of the beholder and how often I train my dogs. • Why you don’t want to know how much it costs to breed dogs. • The favorite activities my dogs enjoy and what I think is the best number of dogs. • Why my first dog was a Terrier. • The biggest challenges I’ve had training. • If my dogs have dewclaws. • The three words I’ve never say about dogs. • What I look for when I go to a training class. • My favorite qualities of my dogs. • Why I do jump grids for agility. • The challenges I add when building a dog training skill. • How I select a breeder and what I do when my female dogs are in season. • That my agility dogs do not fast before competition. • My observations about social learning in dogs and borrowing confidence. • Why Tater came to live with us.   Resources:   • Join in our Free Online Dog Agility Masterclass - https://www.handling360.com/masterclass/ • Blog Post: All About Dogs Sleeping in the Bedroom - https://susangarrettdogagility.com/2020/03/dogs-sleeping-in-the-bedroom/ • Podcast Episode 6: The Art of Manipulation - https://dogsthat.com/podcast/6/ • Podcast Episode 83: The Dog Training You Do When You’re Not Dog Training - https://dogsthat.com/podcast/83/ • YouTube Video: Normalizing Imperfection in Dog Training - https://youtu.be/X_f1hm_XhJM • Podcast Episode 57: Why Balance Breaks Fast Track Your Dog Training (D.A.S.H.) - https://dogsthat.com/podcast/57/ • Podcast Episode 36: Puppy Selection: How I Do It and Why I Didn’t This!
