The Death of Obedience-Only Training is the hard truth every dog trainer and dog owner needs to hear. For decades, the industry pushed a one-size-fits-all obedience model: sit, stay, heel, done. But obedience-only training leaves dogs misunderstood, problems unsolved, and owners frustrated.

In this podcast, Western States K-9 College tears down the old way and shows you what modern, elite training really looks like. From behavior modification and psychology to real-world problem-solving and business strategies for trainers, you’ll discover why obedience-only is dead — and what to do instead.

If you want results that last, deeper connections with dogs, and a career built on more than cookie-cutter commands, this is your blueprint.

The 10K Lie is the podcast pulling back the curtain on the dog trainer school industry.

No fluff, no sugar-coating — just raw conversations about what actually builds six-figure dog trainers.

Hosted by Western States K-9 College, this show breaks down training methods, business strategies, and the truth behind the $10K “certification” scam schools are selling. If you want real skills, real mentorship, and a proven path to success in the dog training world — this is your blueprint.
