Redefining Expertise In Dog Training And What Counts More Than Years Of Experience #247

Visit us at shapedbydog.com 

 

What's better than 30 years of dog training experience? It’s NOT 31! I’m covering why the duration someone spends training dogs does not create expertise, going against the commonly held belief that longevity in a profession guarantees proficiency. Now, 30 years of growing skills and being open to new ideas can create mastery, but living the same year 30 times does the opposite. Get all the critical tips to maximize the next year of your dog training experience and success.

 

In this episode you’ll hear:

 

• That experience does not equate to expertise in dog training.
• Why some experts or trainers get worse with time.
• About the reasons to embrace continual growth..
• Tips to maximize the next year of your dog training experience.
• Why it's important to be deliberate and purposeful in quest for growth.
• The importance of being able to read your dog’s T.E.M.P.
• How creating a training plan is like putting together a recipe.
• The value of listening to your dog’s feedback.
• How to be deliberate and purposeful in your training
