In this episode of The Canine Paradigm, Glenn Cooke shares his incredible experiences in America alongside his wife, Narelle Cooke. They attended the Feed Real Institute seminar, where leading experts in dog health and nutrition laid out the realities of poor-quality pet food and outlined simple yet effective changes to improve the well-being of our pets. The seminar was eye-opening, highlighting the significant impact nutrition has on both pet and working dogs.
Glenn and Narelle’s American adventure didn’t stop there. They travelled to meet enthusiastic TCP listeners and concluded their trip with a seminar in Virginia, hosted by Melanie Benware. Glenn proudly watched as Narelle captivated attendees over two days with her deep knowledge of canine nutrition. To top it off, Glenn presented a full day on puppy acceleration, offering guidance on how to raise puppies from breeders or rescue situations to reach their fullest potential, tailored to suit the family’s lifestyle.
The trip was not only successful but also enriching, filled with the joy of meeting wonderful people, old friends, and seeing the stunning sights of America. Join us as we recount the highlights, share insights from the seminar, and reflect on the incredible connections made along the way.

In the episode,Episode 317: The speed of the dog comes from understanding, we explore how understanding plays a critical role in improving a dog’s response speed and reliability. Addressing questions from our listeners, we delve into practical advice on handling various training scenarios.
One key topic is managing the go-home session after a board and train, particularly regarding the use of luring or redirecting to set up the dog and handler for success. Additionally, we discuss techniques to improve the “out” command, making it clearer and more effective for both trainer and dog. Finally, we explore how to reduce intensity in training sessions without losing the dog’s motivation, striking a balance between energy and control.
Whether you’re looking to refine a specific command or ensure your dog stays motivated while learning, this episode provides insight into maintaining engagement and achieving faster, more consistent results through better understanding.

In this episode of The Canine Paradigm, we explore the intriguing question: Are dogs better off now compared to 30 years ago? With advancements in training methods, nutrition, and pet care, many would assume that dogs are living their best lives today. However, there are complexities to consider. Have modern lifestyle changes and human expectations placed additional stress on our canines?
We also discuss how humans often want their dogs to share emotional moments with them, but they don’t always perceive these moments in the same way. What means a lot to us may hold a different significance to our canine companions. Understanding how dogs interpret our emotions and actions is key to building a strong, fulfilling relationship with them.
Throughout the episode, we respond to questions from our TCP community, diving into topics that resonate with dog owners who wonder about the balance between modern conveniences and their dog’s overall well-being. Whether you’re a long-time dog owner or new to the world of dogs, this episode will get you thinking about how our relationships with dogs have evolved over the years.

In this episode, we explore the concept of “struggle cuddles” with your dog and dive into how perspectives in dog training can change over time. We discuss activities or techniques that trainers may have disliked or avoided in the past but have since embraced as valuable training tools. Additionally, we cover the opposite scenario—methods or practices trainers once believed in but now feel are ineffective or even counter-productive.
The conversation provides insights into how evolving experiences and learning can reshape a trainer’s approach to dog training. Just as trainers grow and adapt, it’s essential for dog owners to stay open to change and willing to adjust their methods based on new understandings. This episode offers a reflective look at the journey many trainers go through and the importance of continually questioning and refining training practices.
Whether you’re a professional trainer or a dedicated dog owner, this episode will encourage you to think critically about your own training preferences and how they may have changed over time.

In Episode 314 of The Canine Paradigm, we explore training methods to stop chasing behaviour in dogs by discussing a groundbreaking study titled “Comparison of the Efficacy and Welfare of Different Training Methods in Stopping Chasing Behavior in Dogs.” This study offers valuable insights into how different training approaches affect the success of stopping unwanted behaviours, particularly chasing, while considering the welfare of the dogs involved.
We break down the study’s findings, highlighting the pros and cons of various training methods to stop chasing behaviour in dogs. The research reveals that different methods can lead to varying degrees of success, especially when considering the impact on the dog’s well-being.
In addition, we delve into the topic of deprivation in dog training. While deprivation can sometimes enhance the effectiveness of training methods to stop chasing behaviour in dogs, it also raises concerns about ethics and welfare. We discuss how this approach fits into modern dog training and what it means for both the effectiveness and overall welfare of the dog.

In Episode 313 of The Canine Paradigm, we dive deep into the intricacies of reward placement, direct and indirect reinforcement, and how these elements impact training success. Moreover, understanding where and how you deliver rewards can drastically shape your dog’s behaviour. In particular, we explore the nuances of direct reinforcement, where the reward is tied closely to the dog’s action, versus indirect reinforcement, where the reward is less immediate.
Additionally, one of the key insights is how improper reward placement can lead to undesirable behaviours, including the development of chewy grips. For instance, we discuss why dogs may develop chewy grips when rewards are poorly timed or misplaced, and how owners often unknowingly contribute to this problem. As a result, it’s all too common for dog owners to unintentionally reinforce the wrong behaviours, leading to a confused or over-excited dog.
Finally, our goal is to help you become a more effective dog handler by shedding light on the small details that can make a huge difference in your training outcomes. Join us in this episode as we explain the connection between reinforcement strategies and common training challenges.

In this episode of The Canine Paradigm, we dive into a range of topics discussed in our training forum, including how to handle a bored dog and avoid turning them into a reactive mess. One common problem is how some dog owners inadvertently derail their dog’s training by making critical mistakes. We also explore how household partners, who aren’t fully invested in the training process, contribute to ongoing behavioural issues.
Moreover, we address the growing tension with force-free (FF) trainers and how their fear-mongering campaigns seem to be escalating. Rather than promoting balanced methods, some FF trainers are increasingly pushing extreme narratives that leave dog owners feeling anxious and overwhelmed.
A major takeaway from this episode is the importance of consistency in training. A bored dog can quickly develop destructive behaviours, like digging, when they’re not properly engaged. However, a lack of unity in the household can make even the best training programs ineffective. This episode provides actionable advice on how to engage your dog, keep them stimulated, and ensure all family members are on board with the training.

In the classic tale The Emperor’s New Clothes, the emperor is deceived into believing he is wearing fine garments when, in fact, he is wearing nothing at all. Similarly, some dog trainers on social media are forcing a narrative of success that does not truly exist. They craft stories of quick fixes and foolproof methods, but when dog owners apply these methods, the results often fall short. As a result, dog owners frequently find themselves frustrated when reality fails to meet the promises made by these trainers.
By forcing a narrative of success, these trainers rely heavily on flashy marketing and carefully edited videos to push their agenda. They insist their methods are perfect and will yield guaranteed results. However, when dog owners try to replicate these techniques at home, they soon discover that the narrative doesn’t hold up. The promises of instant transformation simply do not deliver in real-world situations.
Furthermore, these trainers often double down on forcing a narrative by blaming the dog owners when the methods fail. Instead of admitting that the training approach may be flawed, they claim the owner didn’t follow instructions properly. Consequently, dog owners end up doubting their abilities rather than recognising that the real issue lies in the forced narrative itself.
Therefore, to avoid being misled by such tactics, it is crucial for dog owners to find trainers who focus on delivering real, sustainable results rather than forcing a narrative that only serves to build their social media presence. Just as the emperor eventually realised he had been deceived, dog owners must see through the illusion. In the end, forcing a narrative may create temporary attention, but genuine success comes from proven, effective training methods that stand the test of time.

In Episode 310 of The Canine Paradigm, we discuss the dog training Rachael Raygun Olympic scandal and its implications for both the sports world and our industry. The controversy surrounding Rachael Raygun’s performance highlights a troubling trend: the perceived privilege of those with academic credentials, particularly PhDs, as the sole authorities on complex issues.
However, this bias isn’t limited to sports. In dog training, the divide between those with formal academic qualifications and those with extensive practical experience continues to grow. The dog training Rachael Raygun Olympic scandal shows that assuming PhDs alone hold all the answers is misguided. Moreover, this mindset creates rifts within our industry and undervalues the real-world expertise that experienced trainers bring to the table.
Furthermore, we’re concerned about the ongoing narrative that unfairly targets balanced trainers. Labelling these professionals as “punishment trainers” relies on emotional misinformation, which only serves to divide the community. This kind of gas lighting is exhausting and does nothing to improve dog training quality or the well-being of the dogs we care for.
Therefore, it’s time for a more balanced approach—one that respects both academic knowledge and practical experience. By fostering a more inclusive and open-minded discussion, we can create better outcomes for everyone, whether in the sports arena or within the dog training field.

n Episode 309 of our podcast, we dive into the critical concept of the canine ladder of aggression. This episode is a must-listen for both new and experienced dog trainers, as we break down the visual tool that illustrates the various levels of aggression in dogs, ranging from subtle signals to more overt behaviours.
Using the traffic light system, the ladder of aggression is an essential framework that helps trainers and handlers understand where a dog might be on the spectrum of stress and aggression. This system categorises the dog’s behaviour into green, yellow, and red zones, representing calm, warning, and dangerous stages, respectively.
Understanding these levels is crucial for preventing escalation and managing situations effectively. By recognising early signs of discomfort, trainers can intervene before a dog reaches a critical point, ensuring safer interactions for both dogs and handlers.
