  • Saved my July 4th!

    So glad I listened to their “dogs and fireworks” podcast before the Fourth of July! It helped me get a frozen Kong ready n do some sniff activities before all the fireworks began. I sat calmly with,my dog while he worked on food puzzles and it really really helped! Despite some intermittent barking he managed the loud booms and cracks well. He had an early pee. Then we both went to bed and that was that! No more barking but plenty of fireworks going on outside. Slept well n recovered. My nei... more

  • Great Podcast!

    I started listening to BDA in October 2021, about 2 weeks before my very first agility competition. I started with episode 1 and burned through the series in under 8 weeks! Now I stalk my notifications on Tuesdays when new episodes come out and listen on my way to agility class! I’ve learned so much from Sarah, Esteban and Jennifer over the last 300+ episodes. I feel like Im visiting with old friends when I turn on a new episode. THANK YOU for a wonderful experience!
