  • The Death of Obedience-Only Training
    Oct 14 2025

    The Death of Obedience-Only Training is the hard truth every dog trainer and dog owner needs to hear. For decades, the industry pushed a one-size-fits-all obedience model: sit, stay, heel, done. But obedience-only training leaves dogs misunderstood, problems unsolved, and owners frustrated.

    In this podcast, Western States K-9 College tears down the old way and shows you what modern, elite training really looks like. From behavior modification and psychology to real-world problem-solving and business strategies for trainers, you’ll discover why obedience-only is dead — and what to do instead.

    If you want results that last, deeper connections with dogs, and a career built on more than cookie-cutter commands, this is your blueprint.

  • The $10K Lie
    Oct 7 2025

    The 10K Lie is the podcast pulling back the curtain on the dog trainer school industry. We expose the overpriced programs, the empty promises, and the lack of real mentorship that keeps trainers stuck. No fluff, no sugar-coating — just raw conversations about what actually builds six-figure dog trainers.

    Hosted by Western States K-9 College, this show breaks down training methods, business strategies, and the truth behind the $10K “certification” scam schools are selling. If you want real skills, real mentorship, and a proven path to success in the dog training world — this is your blueprint.

    Forget the hype. Forget the $10K lie. It’s time to train, earn, and lead the pack. Want to read more? https://www.westernstatesk9college.com/blog/best-dog-trainer-certification-comparison
