Love this show!! It has helped me help my rescue pup so much. Nikki is a great resource, and I would recommend this podcast for anyone wanting to connect better with their dog!
We just adopted a
two year old dog who had never lived indoors. I have learned so much from this podcast. Nikki is amazing - every episode is packed full of great advice. I love her approach and the way she explains the “why” of dog training. Highly recommend!
I’ve been listening to DogSpeak for several years and tell all my friends with dogs about them! I just got my first puppy and have been binge listening to all the puppy content, leash walking episodes, etc. I love that they train with positive reinforcement - I had no idea there was a better way to train dogs until DogSpeak. They truly are one of a kind!
I am binge listening to this show!! Finally people I can trust for all things dog!
I have been desperately looking for insightful information since adopting a very challenging rescue 6 weeks ago. This podcast fits the bill! I love the in-depth treatment of topics as well as the HUGE respect for dogs the hosts and guests obviously have. My girl and I are working with trainer; we’re making progress and the information and perspective I am getting from the podcast is helping me better understand and modify the training to what’s best for us. So glad I found it!
