This is a great show for all Canine enthusiast. The host is knowledgeable and upbeat, she does a great job finding and having conversations with interesting guests, I love this podcast.

This podcast is geared towards people participating in dog sports, but it has valuable and practical information for everyone with a dog in their life. Even though I don’t participate in dog sports myself (yet), the sport episodes offer me some of the best training advice! I’m so excited to keep listening to the backlog.

I’ve been listening for the past couple months and concepts are actually sticking in my head. I feel kind of goofy about it because I’ve never actually owned a dog, but I feel that the general principles of training Sarah goes over are incredibly helpful when it comes to navigating stress and learning, both with dogs and humans. I can’t wait for the next episodes, and I hope to be able to apply this to my future dog🤩 Thanks again!

Love this podcast! So many great episodes and honest talk about training from experts. Truly appreciate all the energy and time you put into this show! (Feedback: PLEASE try to balance out your audio so I can hear everyone at the same sound level! It’s really hard to listen to a quieter voice and a loud voice having a conversation)

Always such high quality content and amazing guests & topics. This show always has a spot in my podcast rotation!

Sarah is brilliant and has a gift for keeping things real while also being compassionate with her guests and audience. This is more than a dog training and behavior podcast. Especially if you have a challenging dog, you will love Sarah! She is not afraid to dive into tough conversations!

Love this podcast & Stremming’s approach! Been following for years & recommend it to fellow trainers & competition dog sport enthusiasts regularly

I had never even listened to podcasts before o stumbled over this one by accident. And now I’m hooked and this podcast has actually been a vital resource for me as I navigated my way back to dog sports after a few years away, juggling a reactive COVID puppy and a high spirited Border Collie pup.

this pod cast is sooo good for all dogs but amazing for Agility. love the no bad dog myth episode it changes your perspective in a very good way!!

“Tell us you name and your pronouns please.” Annnnnnd…unsubscribe.

I love this podcast. It’s extremely educational and has deeply informed my training and approach to dogs.

This trainer was really disappointing when she suggested a patron to use a prong collar, even though she said she hasn’t used one in 17 years. There is ALWAYS a pain/discomfort free and force free option and to suggest use of such abusive tools in any capacity is irresponsible and saddening to hear coming from any trainer. I was really looking forward to this podcast after finding it, but I wouldn’t recommend due to this lack of compassion obviously shown.

I’m learning so much. As a dog mom and a dog walker I appreciate the accessibility for non trainers. Thank you! The only note I have is for the production team: the volume is very low compared to other podcasts or anything with audio really. Therefore I blast my ears off when I switch from this to listening to music or another podcast.

I love Sarah’s blunt compassion. From answering questions to sharing real world cases I always finish an episode with a ton of good takeaways. I’m not kidding when I say Sarah’s work has changed my relationship with my dog - for the better.

Sarah shares so many helpful tips - I’ve improved my relationship and training so much with my somewhat challenging dog by listening to this podcast and seeing things in new helpful perspectives. The insights are simple and powerful! Thank you Sarah. I also recommend joining her patreon :)

Each episode is full of amazing insights and practical information.

I binged this whole show over the past few months because it is that good. You may not agree with everything Sarah says, but she will make you think and you will learn something. Lots of great guests, too!

I really enjoyed today’s episode in regard to dog behavior. The interview was very interesting and definitely in line with my beliefs. I love watching My dogs do something instinctual (like chasing a lure etc.), you can see the pure joy it brings to their eyes. Keep it up!

And it was “The Myth of ‘No Bad Dogs, Only Bad Owners.’” I just wanted to thank Sarah and Trish for this episode. I can’t even tell you all the parts of the discussion that resonated with me, are things that I’ve thought myself, but felt uncomfortable talking about with others. Debates about dogs, like so many things, have become polarizing, grounded in all or nothing thinking. And this was such a balanced perspective that I greatly appreciated. I look forward to listening to more episodes.

Thanks for making such an informative podcast!

hands down my favorite training podcast, especially as a crossover trainer! love the regard and prioritization of dog emotions. Stremming is pleasant to listen to, has a good sense of humor, and is talented at conveying her points in an easily understandable, relatable (to the human) way - while demonstrating a massive passion for her subject matter.

Really enjoying this podcast!

Love listening to this podcast, wait each week for a mew one. Honest and down to earth, we are all always learning

Love Cog Dog Radio! It has changed the way I see my dogs and completely opened my eyes to so many things about training.

I find it incredibly frightening that someone who calls herself a dog trainer lost her dogs on a hike, required search and rescue teams to get the dog, and she's giving out advice in a public forum about hiking with dogs. I hope she reviews Leave No Trace principals (including those that show just how much of an impact dogs have on the trail, even ON leash) and rethinks her authority on hiking with dogs. And also dog training... Because no real trainer would lose their dogs in the woods.

Not just for dog trainers. Valuable information you can’t get anywhere else. Truly is the missing link with reward-based training. This is positive reinforcement 2.0.

I’m really loving the honesty of this podcast and while it focuses on positive training methods, I feel like it really tries to avoid shaming those of us who haven’t always had the knowledge or skills needed to use 100% positive methods. I loved the discussion about the barking sheltie and her distressed elderly owner. I feel like you all live in the real world of dogs and remember/understand that not everyone has had your background and this doesn’t make them any less in love with their canine companions.

I started listening a few months ago and enjoyed it so much, I went back to the first episode and listened to them all. It’s absolutely perfect for my dog training geekiness 😁 New episodes are the highlight of my week!

I very much appreciate the in-depth insight into so many things related to dog training!

And I was thrilled Felix was ok! I love the off-leash (or as-close-to long leash as possible) approach too.

Each episode leaves me with something to think about!

RdXxDEa as farcical rd

This podcast consistently offers conversation, discussion and stories that are relevant and useful in my everyday interactions with dogs and people.

I have finally caught up with all of Sarah’s podcasts here at Cog Dog Radio. I’m so glad to have stumbled upon this one. The episodes always get me thinking and chewing on not just the mechanics of “sits” and “downs”, but the big questions of training philosophies and the human-dog relationship. It blows my mind on the regular. 🤯😜 Thank you, Sarah, for sharing your journey with us!

She's so spot on and is so easy to listen to and these stories are a great learning tool

This is THE lifestyle podcast for the dog enthusiast. Training concepts and case studies are addressed, as well as general philosophies and approaches to life with dogs. Sarah is a curious and compassionate host, with a perspective solidly grounded in kindness to humans and dogs.

We are taking an agility class to keep my very special dog moving and help lose weight. An instructor recommended cog-dog and I fell in love can't stop after the first episode Sarah used the line "How to deal with the special dog the world gave you." Gives me new ways to think about my Pint.

I love listening to Sarah. In fact, I don't remember what life was like before her podcast! I feel as if she's really talking to ME (even though we've never met). Sarah takes a scienficic approach to behavior modification, and the reasons behind her choices are well explained. The case studies are particularly fascinating.

As a dog trainer we are constantly trying to learn new avenues of approach in adjusting behaviors in our dogs. Sarah is absolutely amazing at what she does and can offer very valuable insight into dogs that applies well outside of the sports ring. Kudos and keep up the hard work, we enjoy listening and learning from your trials and tribulations.

Thank you, Sarah, for this amazing podcast! I recently learned about it and have already found it so helpful as an aspiring trainer and dog owner. I just listened to “Getting It Wrong,” and couldn’t be more grateful to hear trainers with so much experience talk about failure as a way of learning and moving forward. It would definitely be brilliant for trainers to talk more about their errors and how they have changed and improved their methods and beliefs. Just imagine how much that would help all of us aspiring trainers!

I cannot get enough of this podcast. I love the way Sarah approaches problems and is able to generalize specific issues in ways that can be applied to other situations. Keep up the good work!

As someone who is new to behavior modification, I find this podcast absolutely invaluable. I've been working through some fear/reactivity issues with one of my dogs and I've gotten wonderful insights from this podcast that I never would have thought of before. Thank you for sharing these compelling stories with us :)

Thoughtful, inventive, thorough persistent, and kind. The dog training, sport and behavior community is beyond lucky that Sarah shares her experiences and expertise with us through this medium!

Sarah is a fabulous resource. We need more trainers who understand both dog sports and dog behavior, especially behavior "problems" motivated by emotional issues. I'm glad that she can reach more people via podcast, and the topics lend themselves well to this format.

Have really enjoyed listening to the podcasts. Love the format, and Sarah has an easy and comfortable way of talking that just makes you feel like you're two friends sitting over coffee talking dogs.

Love this podcast, great insight to real dog issues..

I have very much enjoyed the first few episodes of this podcast. Keep it up!
