    YFD 290: Love and Science with Annie Grossman (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    Very few people set out to deliberately be a jerk to their dog, but unfortunately, whether we mean to or not, we often end up doing just that. Even when we have the best of intentions, our own misconceptions, misunderstandings, and unrealistic expectations of dogs can end up causing unnecessary and unwanted stress to everybody involved. That's where dog trainer Annie Grossman comes in. Using the combined powers of love and science, she aims to help people better understand the basic psychology t

    YFD 289: Learning How to Learn with Melissa McCue-McGrath (opens the original)

    Read excerpt

    We often think of simple commands such as "Sit!" and "Come!" as being the most basic thing we can teach our dog, and for many dogs, that's true. But if your dog is struggling to figure out what you're trying to teach them, there may be something even more basic you have to start with- teaching them how to learn in the first place.

    We all like a good treat now and then and our dogs are no exception. All too often, though, commercially available dog treats are packed full of allergens, sugar, wheat, and other undesirable ingredient that can irritate sensitive stomachs and exacerbate existing health issues. That's where today's guest comes in. Marcy Pellegrino is the founder and Chief Brand Barketing Officer of Marcy's Pet Kitchen, a small-batch, USA-made, and healthy, dog treat brand built on one belief: that every all-natu

    Read excerpt

    A few years ago, writer Bruce Littlefield looked at his pet and dog and realized something- dogs have life figured out. They wake up each day looking to make the best of every moment. They understand what’s important. They know what to shake off. They love a good walk. And they certainly know how to relax!
