I’ve been listening to Julie’s podcast for the past 3 year. She’s often with me just as she suggests, while I’m cleaning! I’ve learned more things than I could even begin to list from her. Her calm, steady, realistic approach to everything has given me such confidence as I’ve built and rebuilt my program over the years! I’m endlessly grateful for her generosity & genuine care for her people. I joined the Dog Breeders Society finally this year and what an asset.
Frustrated , Not sure what to do to help your program ?
Julie is the answer- the breeder support you need! She’s personable , cares and is very good at what she does !
I really enjoy listening to this podcast. It is full of relevant, meaningful, and helpful information. I often go back and listen to previous episodes a 2nd and 3rd time.
This podcast is aimed at breeders, but you do not have to be a breeder to enjoy. It’s a story of someone building something from the ground up, starring her successes and failures in hopes of helping others build their program. Any animal professional can benefit from Julie’s experiences and if you’re only used to hearing about how “bad” breeders are, Julie will certainly change your mind. The length of each episode is perfect, I have never been a fan of episodes that take more than one commute ... more
I’ve been listening to Julie’s podcast for over 2 years now. I have found some weeks the subject matter doesn’t pertain to my situation. But then several months later, I need to go back and listen to that episode! I have found myself starting over from episode #1 a few times and listening to all the episodes again.
