​The Coffee hour podcast for dog guardians 

Picture
One thing that dog professionals have an abundance of is podcasts and unique learning, this can be overwhelming for dog guardians, this is why the "Coffee hour" was born, so that dog guardians have an easy listen podcast to learn more intrinsically and holistically how to meet your dogs needs.

Every second friday of the month, live in the Miyagis Dog Training Commmunity, available on both Youtube and Spotify after the session, guardians and professionals a like welcome and we give notice of the speaker and the topic to give you lots of opportunities to ask or prepare questions, ahead of time.

Liz will be drawing on personal experiences of IVDD, having shared this journey her beloved Jack Russell Rune.
By raising awareness of IVDD Liz aim's to teach owners how to recognise the signs- because with this condition time is of the essence and the steps taken early on are critical to improving the outcome for the dog.

Episode 2 - Claire will be talking with Tasha about Hydrotherapy for dogs. What is it, how it can help, what it can help with and most importantly the fun we and the dogs have doing it.
Who is Claire?
Claire has owned dogs for 16 years as well as being brought up with them during her childhood. She has been very active in the dog world, in showing, water rescue training, agility, carting and dog training, either as a participant, helper or both.
Claire will explain how her experience with disease and arthritis in her dogs, led to herself and partner at the time to decide to start up their own Hydrotherapy Centre. Claire will talk about the many mistakes they made in their experience with their own dogs, which has helped them guide many others in the right direction for theirs.


Episode 3 - Laura will be joining Tasha  to discuss her experiences of working in rescue. Laura will be talking about positive reinforcement, management and setting dogs up for success within a rescue centre setting without the need to use aversives.

Small dogs breeds are a big topic that has had a lot of frought and heated debates over the years and this podcast is going to focus on changing the perceptions of small breed dogs and what the general public can do to help! 

Episode 5 - In this episode we discuss the benefits of play and troubleshooting play with dogs, how to help dogs who aren't naturally play driven and find it difficult to play as well as how to help dogs who are nervous and unable to cope outside in the world, through the power of play!

Or are you looking for support and would like to get to know us better?

If the answer is yes then click the image below to join my free facebook group. What is Miyagis Dog Training Community?
​
​So it is what it says on the tin! Its a community that is international of Clients and Colleagues with the most supportive and friendly people on the planet. Dog Trainers and Behaviourists from all over the world!

Why did I set up such a mammoth group?

​I wanted to have a group exclusively for Clients. For support and to meet uo and build on friendships from Classes or One to Ones. I want Clients to see you are not alone with your Dog and the problem you maybe having that you are not the first and won't be the last! I wanted a safe place where Clients could trade stories good and bad in one place for free!

I also wanted a safe place for the Trainers and Behaviourists I mentor within Social Media Platforms.

Why do this for free?

Because when I say I offer an holistic service I really do. It isn't about the money it is about you and your dogs. You and your dogs are all that matter.

​So I wanted to encourage people to do homework and build better quality relationships with their dogs. So 3 years ago I had a mad idea and set up the 100 days of dog training challenge. Once a day people would spend 5 minutes plus training their dog. Recording it and uploading their video onto the Community. Every participant recieved a Certificate.

​What I didn't count on was how many Professionals wanted to join and how fast word would spread. So this year 2020 I set up a 366 days of dog training challenge. 
​
We have Clients in America, Greece, Norway, Denmark and Spain. We have Trainers from Greece, Norway, Isle of Wight, America and many more Countries. As well as dog trainers and trainee behaviourists: I mentor all over the world.

​So again yes this group is free. It is still primarily for clients and for people to get to know me but we also have the challenge running. Again for free. So if you want to join click the image below to be taken to the group directly. See you there!
