Summary

This morning is a special show because we've never had a triple threat like this in the podcast room and also on youtube.... let's see how it goes. We had the pleasure of having ⁠Molly Boland⁠ and ⁠Blaine Tarnecki⁠ at the house for some training and took the opportunity to discuss some highly specific retriever training Q&A. Please let us know if you're liking the youtube action so far. We're trying to keep things new and improved and always welcome some feedback. Here's a few highlights from the show: Chomping birds during the retrieve and how to fix it Overtraining and simplifying for great dogs. Getting your dog to use their nose when hunting Collar conditioning to "give," force fetch and more When and how to introduce your dogs to retrieving doubles With young dogs, should you avoid having bumpers near a bank so they don't get into the habit of cheating the retrieve on land?
