Unleashed & Unhinged
A podcast for dog lovers, dog trainers and dog nerds. I’m Ian Shivers, a behaviour consultant, mentor to other dog professionals, podcaster and all round animal geek. You can find me in Sydney where I run Bondi Behaviourist, a training company that works city wide, Canine C.A.R.E.givers, an online platform for dog owners to learn about training and behaviour, and Mutley, an all in one platform and community with the goal of supporting the amazing professionals in our industry. For some insane reason, as if I wasn’t busy enough I set up this podcast too, in which I’ll dive into a dog topic and unpack it. I hope you enjoy the show.

Dominique Hone of Canine Caregivers joins me again for another Canine Caregivers episode.
In this episode we discuss "Resource Guarding" In particular, resource guarding food between dogs..
Unfortunately there is still lots of really bad advice floating around out there given to dog owners that can make this so much worse and in attempts to prevent this, are actually INCREASING the likelihood of it happening.

Anthony De Marinis is a certified professional trainer (CDBC, ADT, LFDM, FFCP), Certified Dog Behavior Consultant- IAABC, Accredited Dog Trainer- IAABC, Licensed Family Dog Mediator, Fear Free Certified Animal Trainer and one of the nicest guys in our awesome industry.
I have loved watching Anthony's social media and learning from him online through various webinars over the past couple of years, not to mention listened to his awesome podcast The Canine Classroom - go check it out!
He's a very well rounded trainer with an awesome take on all things training and thing that I love about watching him work is how clear he makes things for his dogs.
In this episode we dive into this as well as many other topics because trying to keep us on one subject was never going to happen.
As always, have a listen and let us know what you think.

Dr Emily Lucas owns and operates The Whole Hound, a unique service in Sydney because she is both a vet and a trainer.
Emily is someone that I feel lucky to consider a colleague in this industry, her wealth of knowledge on dogs, dog training and medicine is astounding.
In this episode we talk about behaviour medication. An often controversial topic that we thought we'd make even spicier by asking the question "Why Would We Resort to Medication Before Resorting to Punsihment to Change Behaviour?"
I'll leave that teaser there because this is a topic full of nuance and something we all care deeply about. It was a pleasure to have Emily on the show so jump in, have a listen and give us a like and follow while you're at it.

Episode 40: Canine Caregivers - Reactivity Week

26 min
Dominique Hone of Canine Caregivers joins me again for another Canine Caregivers episode.
In this episode we discuss "Reactivity Week".
The joys of pre-recording an episode and it getting released no where near the actual week we probably should have released it... but that doesn't take away from the fact that this is an important topic and what we covered in this episode can support so many people that hear it.
Reactivity is one of these things that is all too common in our dogs in this modern world. So we wanted to unpack it. What is it? How to approach it? What causes it and all that fun stuff.
Dive into the episode and let us know what you think
