In this episode, we discuss the importance of motivation in dog training. Motivation is the most important aspect when training any dog and, sadly, the most neglected. In the sports dog world, the importance of creating the right motivation is understood and used well, but it is ignored in many other areas of dog training.

In this episode, we discuss emotions in dogs. We explore the limbic system, the part of the brain responsible for emotions in all mammals. I briefly overview the Blue-Ribbon emotions and how and why this matters when working with dogs. The information in this episode is largely based on Affective Neuroscience by Jaak Panksepp.

I changed my thoughts on spaying and neutering over the years. I used to advocate spaying and neutering dogs before they reached sexual maturity—between six and eight months—for mostly behavioral reasons. Not letting your dog’s hormones go wild does have some behavioral benefits—but at what cost? Newer studies made it clear to me that I was wrong. I changed my mind. We are allowed to do that when presented with better research data.
