In this Episode, I'm joined by our very special guest, Kris of Primal Canine Florida. Kris  gives us a glimpse into the world of dog sports, including a newly introduced sport, Street League, which is designed specifically for personal protection dogs and how he got his start.

We discuss the intricacies of dog training from Kris's perspective and stresses the importance of connection, humility, and sustainable techniques in the canine training industry. We also take a moment to appreciate how the industry has significantly evolved over the years, particularly the need for individualized attention to each dog and explaining progressions to owners who may have strong opinions about certain training methods.

In the final snippet of our chat, we throw light on Kris's training philosophy and the value of knowledge and empowerment. We chat about the need for resilience and patience when handling dogs and their owners, and the necessity of equipping owners with the skills and know-how to walk their journey. Kris gives a candid take on rescue responsibilities, emphasizing that education can play a massive role in reducing the need for rescues. We wrap up discussing the importance of maintaining physical and mental health in dog training, and hear Kris's take on decoying as his form of working out. You know the drill, grab yourself a tasty drink and enjoy.
