Saturday, 13 June, 2026
What does leadership have to do with dog training? More than most people realize. In Episode 3 of The Journey: Leadership Through Partnership, The Danny and Gunner Story, we explore why so many training plans fail, whether you're working with a service dog, leading a team, or trying to build better habits. Inconsistency, unclear expectations, and reactive decision-making can derail progress long before results have a chance to appear. Through Danny and Gunner's journey, Robert and Michele Forto share real-world lessons about structure, trust, accountability, and the power of showing up every day, even when progress feels slow. The same principles that create a reliable service dog partnership often create effective leadership. If you've ever struggled with a dog that seems stuck, a training plan that isn't working, or a goal that feels out of reach, this episode offers practical insights that apply far beyond the training field. In this episode: Why consistency matters more than intensity The hidden cost of unclear communication How reactive behavior creates setbacks What service dog training teaches us about leadership Lessons from Danny and Gunner's partnership journey
