From Zoë: 
3 years ago, I brought home my first big dog, Queen. I thought I was prepared but then I realized I was totally unprepared! So I had no choice but to prepare myself. And that changed me as a person. Now, after almost 3 years of training professionally, I have fallen in love with guardian breeds and helping reactive dog owners on their journeys.

Dog Training Bytes Teaser

Welcome to Dog Training Bytes – the show where canine professionals share their key takeaways, big a-ha moments, and hardest lessons learned from working with dogs. 
This podcast is all about sharing the lessons learned from experience. Because the stories of when it got tough, or when we made a mistake – that’s when we learn the lessons worth learning. And it’s time we share those with the world. What’s most important here on this show: what did they walk away with? What did they learn? How did it shape their approach today?
In this teaser episode, Mattison is sharing the exact moment that inspired this project through a clip from her other podcast - unPACKed. While Mattison was sharing a story of a lesson she learned before even her time as a full-time trainer, she realized that the lesson from that moment still impacts her approach with training today.  This inspired Dog Training Bytes, designed to be a collection of the lessons that we didn’t really set out to learn, but taught us something valuable none-the-less.
 
Season One of Dog Training Bytes premiers on Tuesday February 27th. Subscribe so you don’t miss an episode!
