In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw discusses:   The positive impact PSA and American Schutzhund have had on pet training.    Creativity and innovation in training your dog.    The objective standards of canine sports to create better dogs of all ages.    Getting involved in the culture of canine sport.   How sport can change the way you think about dogs.      Key Takeaways:   Being part of a canine sport club will allow you to have conversations with other dog owners who are also training their dogs and can make training your pet feel less isolating.    It is the application of ideas that matters. You want to be a trainer that can do, not just talk about doing.    Behind the rules and standards of evaluation, canine sport shows the breeding of the dogs who participate and compete.    The tighter the training, both in pet training and in sport, the better it will be over the long term. The looser the training, the looser it will get over time.      "Part of the culture is you get a sense of place where you have belonging, you’ve got some safety, there’s some humility that has to be shown, you get to share success - nobody does this alone." —  Jerry Bradshaw   Get Jerry's book  Controlled Aggression on Amazon.com   Contact Jerry: Website: controlledaggressionpodcast.com Email: JBradshaw@TarheelCanine.com Tarheel Canine Training:  www.tarheelcanine.com Youtube:  tarheelcanine Twitter: @tarheelcanine Instagram: @tarheelk9 Facebook: TarheelCanineTraining Protection Sports Website: psak9-as.org Patreon:   patreon.com/controlledaggression Slideshare:  Tarheel Canine Calendly: https://calendly.com/tarheelcanine  Tarheel Canine Seminars: https://streetreadyk9.com/    Sponsors:  ALM K9 Equipment: almk9equipment.com PSA & American Schutzhund: psak9-as.org Tarheel Canine: tarheelcanine.com Superior Canine Website: https://superiorcanine.ca/  Aaron’s Superior Canine Email: aaron@superiorcanine.ca  Superior Canine Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/superiorcanineinc  Superior Canine Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/superiorcanineinc/    Train Hard, train smart, be safe.     Show notes by Podcastologist Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie   Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.
