Dogs make our lives whole, right? Whether your life revolves around your heart dog or you're struggling with behavior issues, this is the podcast for you! There's so much conflicting information that exists online, so this podcast will shift through all of that to bring you the truth. You'll find a little bit of everything here - training advice, discussions about wellness, travel tips and tricks, and more - but most importantly, we just want to inspire you to live a better life with a deeper connection with your dog.
Fetch for Me, Human is hosted by Alix Mitchell, a professional dog trainer and dog owner of a reactive dog.
With over 10 years of experience with dogs as a dog trainer, veterinary technician, and program administrator for a federal contract working dog program, Alix's life truly revolves around dogs.
In this show, Alix shares actionable advice stemming from the same knowledge that she used to conquer her own issues as a reactive dog owner and transform into a professional dog trainer and frequent hiker and adventurer with her reactive dog by her side.
These episodes are packed with actionable training steps rooted in science and rewards based training methods, travel tips and tricks, overall health and wellness advice, and motivation and encouragement sprinkled in to help you navigate the emotional roller coaster of owning a reactive dog.
Sit back and listen or grab your earbuds while you take your dog for a walk, now is the time to start living a better and more active life with your reactive dog!
