Kay Laurence - Learning About Dogs
Establishing your ethical foundation
What does it mean to have a strong ethical foundation when you are a teacher of dogs? We toss around words like "positive reinforcement" trainer, but what does that really mean beyond the label. In this episode, our premier episode, Kay Laurence and Sue McGuire talk about what it means to be an ethical trainer.

Having a strong ethical foundation provides the framework on which we practice the art of teaching dogs.
