In this episode, Jerry Bradshaw & William Garrido discuss:

  • William’s journey into dog training and his professional journey to head trainer at Starmark Academy. 
  • The value in working with dogs of all types and temperaments. 
  • Continuing learning while keeping your focus and system of training. 
  • Understanding the unchanging fundamentals. 

 

Key Takeaways:

  • You can learn a lot about dogs and behavior by training pet dogs. Even if you work with working dogs, there is still more to learn from pet dogs. 
  • There is value in learning training at a school with a specific, outlined curriculum led by professionals. 
  • Dog training is not all glamour – there is a grind and dirty and challenging aspects to it. 
  • Fundamentals are always going to be there, that’s not going to change. The scientists have done the legwork for you, you just have to understand how that applies to dog training and to learning.

 

“I see tremendous value in going to a place where there’s a curriculum laid out for you, and professionals guiding you through that curriculum.” —  William Garrido
