Why a Dog Trainer Wants You to Buy From a Breeder
"Adopt don't shop" is one of the most repeated phrases in the dog world. But what if it's part of the problem?In this episode, Max makes an argument that will surprise, and possibly frustrate, some of our listeners. As a dog trainer and behavioural expert, he believes that if everyone bought their dog from a reputable, ethical breeder, we would actually see fewer dogs ending up in shelters and fewer dogs being put down. It's a viewpoint plenty of people won't like, and Max knows it, but in this episode he lays out exactly why he thinks this way.Jack, who has always adopted his dogs from rescues puts to Max the questions that many listeners who disagree with this position will be shouting at their speakers, from puppy farms and backyard breeders to the dogs already sitting in shelters right now waiting for a home.Whichever side of the debate you're on, this one might make you think.Need help with your four legged best friend? get intouch with Max at downunderdogtrainer.com This episode is brough to you by the team at knose Pet Insurance You can learn more at knose.com.au. ssued byPacific International Insurance.
