10/04/2026 | 53 mins.
What does it mean to train the dog in front of you? Here I talk about Tye/Border Collie vs Xen/Belgian vs Brito/Terrier - Breed tendencies vs. individual quirks.
In short, Tye is an odd duck, so I train him the way he prefers.

Your Dog Doesn't Need Intentional Aversives to Learn

Nope. You don't have to add intentional aversive so that your dog learns how to handle them.

Accepting Misunderstanding
20/03/2026 | 26 mins.
Learn to let misunderstandings stand - once you know someone is listening to misunderstand, you can comfortably move on. Don't get pulled into stupid conversations. For all you know, you're arguing with a 15-year-old… or someone who is deeply unwell and incapable of doing better.
Either way, those conversations never end well. Spend your energy elsewhere.

The Benefits of Management
13/03/2026 | 21 mins.
Fearful dog? A little aggressive and forward? The vast majority of the time, you can manage the behavior and make everyone happy. Even better, often good management creates a situation where the dog feels safe and knows they will be left alone, and the problem behavior goes away. Don't make things worse by forcing it. Might work for a few months but… high risk with little payoff. Follow my training! Instagram The High Drive Dog More online training! Fenzi Dog Sports Academy

Rehoming dogs. Behavioral euthanasia. And the parts of these conversations we usually avoid. If you want the honest story of the dog I rehomed… you're in the right place. Follow my training! Instagram The High Drive Dog More online training! Fenzi Dog Sports Academy
