Episode 51: Around the World with Dog Welfare

Victoria and Holly talk about international dog welfare controversies, including the horrific dog meat trade and the amazing organizations that are working to stop it. They also discuss a recent international rescue of almost 40 Golden Retrievers.

Calling in to the Positively Hotline is Canine Assistants founder Jennifer Arnold, who is revolutionizing the way people train both service dogs and pet dogs. She discusses her new training techniques, and how pet parents can apply the concepts with their dogs at home.

Ask Victoria questions include:

• How can you stop a dog from licking people compulsively?
• How can you prepare yourself for getting a new dog?
• What's the best way to convince a punishment-based trainer that reward-based training is the way to go?
