"Daddy's Home, and He's Pissed": What Bad Dog Training Can Teach Us About Authoritarianism

In this episode, recorded on November 6th, I recap some of the weird moments having to do with pets and other animals in the run up to the election, from Peanut the Squirrel to Kristi Noem shooting her puppy, several stories about people eating dogs and beyond. But the apex of the weirdness came to me in in a speech where Carlson Tucker starts off talking about how American’s are too nice to dogs, and then devolves into talking about how those on the left need to be, well… spanked. As a positive reinforcement trainer, I cannot help but reflect on the Trump’s win through the lens of animal behavior, as I’ve come to understanding it through working with dogs. This leads me to wonder what would happen if political governance wasn’t rooted in punishment? Is it possible that helping people to better understanding and applying positive reinforcement in dog training could have broader implications for society? Maybe? Maybe. Maybe if we all spent more time training, we’d at least spend less time doomscrolling… This episode includes parts from the last two chapters of my new book, <a target="_blank" href="http://anniegrossman.com/book">How To Train Your Dog With Love + Science</a>, one about studies that have been done on spanking kids and the American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior’s recommendations on using punishment with dogs, and the other on BF Skinner’s suggestion for change people’s behavior on a societal level without force.An <a target="_blank" href="https://www.audiobooks.com/audiobook/how-to-train-your-dog-with-love-science-a-dog-lovers-guide-to-animal-behavior-and-positive-reinforcement-training/802251">audiobook </a>version of the book has just been released from Tantor Press, narrated by Eunice Wong.

Dogmas & Dog Ewoks: How Halloween can polarize dog lovers

Everything seems crazy and awful right now in the world and then, on top of it all, people are… putting costumes on dogs. Anamarie and I delve into the weirdness and ethics of dressing up dogs. Additionally, we talk about Brian Hare and Vanessa Wood’s Atlantic article about a third wive of domestication in dogs, and the Monks of New Skete’s feature in the Associated Press. Ultimately, my 5-year-old sums up the spirit of the episode by sharing her own impromptu thoughts on how we should consider our dogs comfort above all else.

What happens when you publish a paper showing e-collars can be effective? Anamarie replies to negative feedback to her study. Plus: Annie tries to buy one.

Anamarie and I recorded this episode separately because we had different things we wanted to communicate in a format that wasn't really right for conversation.Me first: What if you're someone who has strong feelings about putting dogs in shock collars and... one of your friends publishes a paper on research she did that involved putting shock collars on dogs?What if that person is your podcast host?Hi, I'm Annie, and this is my life.The day after I publish a book that is essentially a paean to Positive Reinforcement dog training rooted in science and research, a major journal publishes a paper (rooted in science and research!) that says that using a shock collar may be more effective when teaching a dog to stop chasing than reward-based training would be in the same period of time. Anamarie was one of the authors.Do you hop on the bandwagon and hate on this person?Do you yell at the angry mob -- which contains many of your colleagues -- to stop hating on her because she is someone you respect and love?Do you hit your desk on the head several times because you know that 99.9 percent of US dog owners don't care about the studies or the ethics and will never consult with experts but are going to use these things anyway because THEY'RE COMPLETELY LEGAL?Do you ... buy a shock collar?Join me as I confirm all my worst fears during a series of phone calls with shock collar retailers.In the 2nd part of the episode, Anamarie responds to attacks on the study that has been the source of so much criticism in the Positive Reinforcement dog training community over the last few weeks.You can read the study here:More:<a target="_blank" href="http://schoolforthedogs.com/book">⁠GET MY BOOK!
