About this listen

 The Dog Training Detective is a captivating journey into the fascinating intersection of crime-solving and canine companionship, inspired by the works of Lee Charles Kelley. Kelley, an American novelist and dog trainer based in Manhattan, is best known for his series of detective novels featuring Jack Field, a former NYPD homicide detective who retires to Maine to open a boarding and training kennel. However, Jack's peaceful life is short-lived as he keeps getting drawn back into detective work, often accompanied by his love interest, Dr. Jamie Cutter, and their loyal canine companions.

Kelley's novels blend the suspense of murder mysteries with the practical insights and humor of dog training manuals. These stories are not just whodunits; they are also comic, sometimes even farcical, and packed with dog training advice, making them a treat for both mystery fans and dog lovers. The role of the dog in these stories is elevated from a simple sidekick to an essential partner in both investigation and everyday life.

What sets Kelley apart in the world of dog training is his distinctive philosophy, which is influenced by Kevin Behan's Natural Dog Training methodology. This approach emphasizes building a strong emotional bond between humans and dogs based on understanding and mutual respect rather than dominance. Kelley's willingness to challenge industry norms has made him a lively, often controversial voice in dog circles, earning him recognition, including a widely read blog on Psychology Today.

Listeners are treated to a podcast experience that doubles as an informal guide to canine behavior. Each episode delivers not just a crime to unravel but also bite-sized lessons in dog psychology, often peppered with humor and farcical moments. These stories are not just for mystery lovers or dog enthusiasts; they are also practical guides for anyone fascinated by canine behavior.

Kelley's personal connection with dogs is profound, as his first dog, Charley, gained fame by appearing on NBC's Late Night with David Letterman. This personal investment shines through in both his fiction and advice, welcoming listeners into a world where the same keen detection skills can solve both mysteries and canine conundrums.

The Dog Training Detective stands out by making dog training approachable and weaving it into the suspense and charm of classic detective tales. Kelley proves that unlocking the mysteries of dog behavior can be just as thrilling as cracking a criminal case—and just as rewarding.
