Another incredible Guest, Scent Detection handler and trainer Rhiannon Atkin-Bryan from Purella K9 Training ! We are so excited about you hearing this episode, Rhiannon tells her story all about her career as a detection handler from her beginnings to where she is now. We also get to learn about a world that not many get to experience or have access too. In this episode Rhi will tell her story as detection handler but also how we can apply it to our pet dogs and also how she teaches scentwork to pet dog owners, there is a bit for everyone!! We hope you enjoy the episode as much as we did !! We have attached links to find Rhiannon at the bottom.

Here’s what Rhiannon says

“During my career I have worked in boarding kennels and for a specialist dog handling company, training, handling and recruiting rescue dogs. I have trained dogs to find drugs and tobacco, explosives, cash, live bodies and for conservation.

Dogs always amaze me with their talents, and I still find it astonishing that dogs were able to detect even the smallest trace of odour no matter how concealed the scent was.

Working with dogs has highlighted the importance of good communication with humans and dogs. There is always so much to learn when training dogs and I am continuously learning so I can offer the best approach for my clients.”

What a cracking episode!! In this episode we have the fabulous Guest trainer Barb Buchmayer !!
Barb Buchmayer has come to discuss her New book “Enrichment Games for high energy dogs”
We talk about how she got into working with dogs and her journey which has led her to create 3 books and fascinating career with Working dogs on stock . Here’s a little snippet of what Barb writes about herself which we delve into, such a fabulous listen we loved this talk and could of gone on for hours with her we hope you enjoy as much as did!!

Barbs words
Let's play our way to happy, healthy dogs!

I have been involved with animal training for my entire life, from training dogs and horses to chickens, sheep, and cows. My favorite types of dog training are tricks, herding, and general obedience.

After finding positive dog training in 2008, I adapted my skills from traditional methods to more innovative ones. I have found that using positive methods with my dogs is not only more fun but also helps me to create great, no-regrets relationships with my dogs.

I have had high-energy border collies for over 30 years and have learned how to work and relax with them, not always an easy feat for Energizer Bunny dogs. Join me to explore positive new ways to interact with your dog.

All of my training is dog-lover-tested and pup-approved!
