Send us Fan MailIn this episode of The Empathetic Trainer, I talk with Heather Mishefske of Embark Dog Training School.I’ve spent my whole life with herding dogs. Then I got an Australian Terrier… and realized pretty quickly that my usual way of doing things wasn’t going to work.This little guy has opinions.So I went looking for help, and that’s how I found Heather.We talk about what it’s like to live with dogs in a very human world, and why so many of the struggles we see make more sense when you look at things from the dog’s side.Heather works with dogs and their people every day. What I appreciate most is how she helps people understand the dog in front of them, instead of trying to make every dog fit the same approach.If you’ve ever had a dog that didn’t respond the way you expected… you’ll probably recognize this conversation.https://www.empathetic-trainer.com/
