The Honest Hounds Podcast

Does your dog actually need you to “speak dog,” or have we taken that idea a bit too literally?

In today’s episode of Jess and Jessie, we’re digging into a brilliant question one of our members asked recently: Does my dog need me to be a dog?

We talk a lot about learning to speak dog, understanding body language, and communicating in a way that your dog understands. But does that mean your dog expects you to be a dog?

We hear it a lot within dominance theory, the idea that you need to act like a dog. And we know it’s important for our dogs to understand our intentions. But what is actually important here? And what do our dogs really want from us?

Come have a listen as we unpick this big topic.

Honest Interviews: Polly & Elsie
This episode Sean chats with Polly about her dog Elsie.
We discuss all the training that Polly put in, the slightly wonky start to life Elsie had, why balls are more dangerous than you think, and the closest thing to full-blown addiction I've ever seen in an animal.

Jess and Jessie are back with another podcast, and this is a really interesting combination of discussion and research.

We are looking at current research surrounding tone and how we can use our voice to successfully communicate with our dogs. We dive into what dogs enjoy, how we can utilise voice variation to build our bond and engagement, and give you some simple tips and strategies to try if you want to get the most from your communication with your dog.

From pitch and tone to the way our dogs respond to different vocal styles, this episode looks at what the research tells us and how we can actually use it in everyday life.
