  • Resumen

  • In this howl-oween special, we're talking about something that's been haunting the dog world since the 1940s: dominance theory, or alpha dog theory.

    If you’re a dog parent and you’ve believed in this theory for a while, I promise to bring you zero judgment. If you’re a trainer, you’ve probably heard this topic beaten to death - but I hope you stick around anyway, because I’m bringing you a new angle about the “why” behind this pervasive theory.

    Listen and discover:

    • The history of dominance/alpha dog theory; it's inception, rise to popularity, debunking, and resurgence
    • 3 major reasons why we know this theory isn't sound
    • My thoughts about why this theory quickly became pervasive and why people find it hard to let go of
    • Why I advocate for leadership over dominance when it comes to our relationships with dogs
