  • Episode 352: Stereotypes of dog owners on social media
    Nov 18 2025
    In Episode 352 of The Canine Paradigm, we look at stereotypes of dog owners on social media. First, we talk about how these labels form, why the algorithms reward them, and how that shapes what owners believe about training. Then we contrast two worlds. On one side, ethical and brilliant trainers who teach clearly and show real progress. On the other, clout chasers who market better than they train and turn drama into a business model. We explore how to spot red flags, how to verify claims, and how to find reliable guidance that helps dogs and families. It is a practical guide to cutting through noise, choosing better voices, and keeping the focus where it belongs, on the dog.

  • Episode 351: It’s all about the dog pooh life
    Nov 5 2025
    In this gloriously grubby edition of The Canine Paradigm, we lean right into the dog pooh life and answer the two questions you sent that made us laugh out loud. First, our worst dog diarrhoea story. We relive the slip, the splatter, and the sprint for paper towels, then talk through what the mess told us about health, how we calmed the situation, rehydrated, and reset the diet without drama. Next, a classic training confession. A listener asked for a memorable time a dog blew us off in a session. We share the look, the turn away, and the magnetic pull toward anything more interesting, then explain how we rebuilt engagement with clearer cues, better rhythm, and sensible expectations.

  • Episode 350: The experience of the dog in training
    Oct 24 2025
    In this episode, we shift the lens away from outcomes and titles and look at what often gets overlooked, the dog’s experience during training. Is the dog learning with clarity, or simply complying under pressure? Are we building understanding or just building behaviour? We explore how training isn’t just about what a dog does at the end of a program, but how they felt throughout the journey. Confidence, confusion, fear, motivation, these internal states shape the long-term success of training more than most realise. Whether you're a trainer, a handler, or a dog owner, this conversation will get you thinking deeply about what it feels like to be on the other end of the lead. Because the best training doesn’t just teach skills, it builds trust, optimism, and resilience.

Awesome Aussie Blokes & Trainers

This podcast is a serious part of my life. I love the fact that they aren't just about being great dog trainers. They are also about being incredible humans. Their honesty, transparency, realness & genuine persona are appreciated when there is so much BS in this world. Then add the great chemistry between the 2 obvious friends, their knowledge, intelligence, stories, experiences, and humour all make such an enjoyable, valuable, meaningful, educational & entertaining podcast. I always come away feeling lighter, better educated & inspired after listening to each & every episode. Love you guys!

Great podcast, great content, amazing humans

I was completely shut off by one of the creators, and the only reason I can guess as to why is asking questions

become an echo chamber
