Here's a cool approach to dog training: Teach your dog that you are a benevolent god. A superhero, if you will. That is UK-based trainer Dominic Hodgson's approach. In this episode, Annie interviews Dom about his journey from actor to tobacco salesman to dog walker to dog trainer to pet business consultant through his company, Grow Your Pet Business Fast. Annie learns about several dog business areas she never considered, and gets some great business advice from this titan in the field.

Annie:
There’s this thing that dog trainers sometimes say, which is that the only thing two dog trainers can agree on is that the other person is doing everything wrong. And, you know, I kind of hate that kind of way of looking at things. It’s not how I see things. I do think that there are some good dog trainers out there and bad dog trainers. There’s maybe two large categories of dog trainers, but there are so many good dog trainers who are doing so many cool things and I’m always excited to learn about what they’re doing.
Today’s conversation is with a dog trainer who is indeed doing so many cool things. I am speaking to Dom Hodgson who went from being an actor to being a tobacco salesman to starting his own dog-walking business, realized he needed to learn about dog training in order to be a better walker. And now he is a pet business coach and he has his own podcast called the Poodle to Pit Bull pet business podcast. I am on his podcast this week and he is on mine. And this meant that we got to have two really great conversations recently. So if you want to learn more about me, head over to his podcast, if you want to learn more about him, keep on listening. I’m thrilled to be able to share this conversation with you.
