She got another puppy shortly before starting the course which allowed her to see some remarkable differences in a dog raised with science-based/reward-based training methods versus one who was not. When felt she had reached a plateau in her own solo study of animal behavior, she enrolled in the School For The Dogs Professional Course last year. With guidance from this podcast, she began to see a way of dog training that made sense to her. Sara Caron had a leash-reactive dog, and as she started to research a quick fix for the problem, she threw out a wide net and tried lots of things.

Together they also listen to “bonker”-based dog trainer Jeff Gellman’s rant on dog trainers who prefer to use methods that don’t cause their dogs (and potentially others) additional harm. She joins Annie on this episode to discuss her journey as a dog trainer. Many years later, she works primarily with rehabilitating rescue dogs. After being encouraged by a trainer to use an e-collar on her dog that caused him to completely shut down, she moved away from aversives. She was raised on a farm with field-trial Labradors and grew up around punishment-based dog training using aversives. Texas-based trainer Beth Berkobien has a master's degree in animal behavior, specializes in dog aggression, and offers virtual training sessions internationally.
