  • Keep ‘em coming!

    Started listening over the weekend and really enjoying your episodes so far! Some good LOL moments (I’m out choring and laughing out loud by myself like a weirdo thanks to you guys!) - but some great interviews, questions and topics your covering. Very helpful to us newbies - look forward to the next ones!

  • Great guests — good listening

    A great podcast to listen to if you want to improve your own handling or training. They bring in a great lineup of pros and handlers so you get a lot of insight into how they approach their dogs.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Jerry Alvord with Stockdogs Unleashed
Q: What advice would you give to beginners looking to get into dog training and trials?
Get an older dog if possible, seek guidance from someone experienced, and don't expect a perfect two-year-old–training takes time and real-world learning.
Jerry Alvord with Stockdogs Unleashed
Q: How did you transition from traditional ranch work to dog trials and trial dogs?
I started with dogs early on, learned from experience, and gradually moved into trials as I found that well-bred, well-trained dogs could handle real ranch tasks and perform at a higher level in competitions.
#15 Roy Cox part 2
Q: What do you look for in a dog when selecting a prospect for work?
I look for five main traits: head strength, stamina, heat tolerance, pain tolerance, and healing ability, with everything else being a combination of those factors. The nose and bite are important, but without that lead and mental drive, the dog won't perform consistently under pressure.
#14 Roy Cox with Stockdogs Unleashed part 1
Q: What changes did you notice when you moved from cutting horses to cattle dogs in North America?
Roy discusses the demand for a robust cattle dog, the initial resistance in some ranches, and the shift toward more humane, cooperative handling.
#14 Roy Cox with Stockdogs Unleashed part 1
Q: Roy, how did you get into dogs and what made you want to start working them?
Roy explains his Australian background, the heritage of dogs in herding, and identifying a gap in the US market for capable cattle dogs, which led him to pursue training.
