Les mer The Canine Oasis Podcast

The Canine Oasis Podcast was created by Jonathan - a Registered Nurse and dog lover who is creating The Canine Oasis Indoor Dog Park near Phoenix, AZ. The struggles of meeting the needs of an active dog during the Arizona Summer heat inspired Jonathan to look for solutions. With no apparent outlets for safe, summer fun near him and his dog, Chango, Jonathan decided to do something about it himself. He began dreaming of an indoor dog park that offers daycare, boarding, training, and grooming. A one-stop shop for people to meet their canines' needs and become part of a dog-loving community. Central to that dream for Jonathan is a community based around inclusivity and cooperation. A place where like-minded people recognize that each dog is its own unique being with individual interests, personality, and drives. When we satisfy our dog's personal needs, they experience a profound sense of well-being. Their bonds with their humans strengthen. And they have fewer behavioral issues, anxiety, and other problematic symptoms.Jonathan began networking with people in dog-related industries like groomers, trainers, rescue workers, retailers, veterinary service providers, and so much more. Through these relationships, Jonathan became aware of the dire need of millions of suffering dogs. At the time of writing this description, it is estimated that at least 3.3 million dogs are housed in shelters each year, and an astounding 670,000 of them are euthanized.This has to change! Jonathan wants to help and believes that awareness is paramount in that change. So many people are working to help dogs, and many more are unaware of the problem or how they can help. The Canine Oasis Podcast was created with the same dream as the indoor dog park - to create a place where people who love dogs can gather, share their ideas and experiences, learn from each other, and discuss anything that can help dogs live more joyful, fulfilled lives, rescue them from shelters, and prevent dogs with incredible potential from losing their life to euthanasia needlessly.We hope you feel welcome in our community!

If you enjoy Steve's contribution to our conversations as much as I did, please find out more on his website [https://stevedebono.com/]and YouTube channel [https://www.youtube.com/@Stevedebonodogs]. Steve's 3-part seminar: Strategies for Introducing Socially Challenged Dogs is invaluable. You can access it here [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kMToOqlhRiE]. Summary In this conversation, Jonathan Mecham and Stephen De Bono discuss the importance of playgroups for shelter dogs and how to overcome challenges in integrating hard-to-adopt dogs into playgroups. They emphasize the value of socialization and supporting dogs with behavior issues. They also highlight the barriers that keep dogs from getting adopted, such as historical and current behavior, medical issues, physical traits, and shelter policies. They discuss the need for shelters to actively promote and showcase dogs to potential adopters, and the importance of providing ongoing support to ensure successful adoptions. Jonathan and Stephen discuss the importance of handling experience and the challenges of working with different types of dogs. Steve emphasizes the need for practice and lower-stakes situations to build skills. Handlers and trainers are responsible for ensuring the safety and well-being of dogs.

Steve shares how the use of such tools can be harmful to dogs and their relationships with humans. Jonathan discusses the need to bridge the divide between different training approaches and labels, and the importance of problem-solving and understanding individual dogs and their environments.

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
