Prospective dog owners are sometimes warned that having a puppy is like having a new baby — sleepless, grueling and thankless. Often, new pet parents realize the hard way that their puppy is absolutely nothing like a tiny infant: in fact, it’s worse. Babies, generally, don’t draw blood.
During the pandemic, when pup parents were stranded at home with furry land sharks, in the absence of group classes or in-person behaviorist sessions, one source of accessible guidance came in the form of dog training TV shows. In the U.K., where Kennel Club data indicates that 25% of new dog owners bought a puppy during the pandemic without doing their research, these shows became a lifeline.
“They are tuning in because you want to know that other people are in the same situation,” says London-based dog behaviorist and trainer Louise Glazebrook, who stars in the BBC’s “12 Puppies and Us.

Nothing used to fill me with excitement more than going for a walk and seeing all the cute dogs that were also out and about. This has become less common due to the current global situation…
Now if you saw the cover photo for the new Netflix original series Canine Intervention you would be led to believe that this is another dog based show whose main intention is to just create the “awwww” factor from the audiences. However, you would be wrong to think that! Despite the cute and friendly dog image used on the artwork, this is a show that focuses more on the behavioural issues of man’s best friend and how we can go about resolving them.
Canine Intervention follows the life of Jas Leverette who is the founder of Cali K9s and if you have read any of my reviews before you will know that...

“I was just fed up with dog shows that didn’t really give people a message. You can see the before and after, but I like to show people the process,” he tells Variety.
For Leverette, this process heavily involves The Box, a small wooden pallet that he brings to sessions with dogs that need everything from basic obedience to anti-aggressive behavioral sessions. It is on that box he asks a dog to sit or stand, teaching them focus and stillness as they learn their new tasks or hone newly-acquired skills. The Box means “work” for the dog, while “break” comes when the dog...
