Show overview
The Dog Trainer's Quick and Dirty Tips for Teaching and Caring for Your Pet has been publishing since 2009, and across the 6 years since has built a catalogue of 236 episodes. That works out to roughly 25 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a fortnightly cadence.
Episodes typically run under ten minutes — most land between 6 min and 8 min — and the run-time is fairly consistent across the catalogue. None of the episodes are flagged explicit by the publisher. It is catalogued as a EN-language Kids & Family show.
The catalogue appears to be on hiatus or wound down — the most recent episode landed 11.2 years ago, with no new episodes in over a year. The busiest year was 2014, with 48 episodes published. Published by Macmillan Holdings, LLC.
From the publisher
The Dog Trainer wants you and your dog to have a wonderful time together. If you've got a puppy, get simple, sensible pointers for raising her. Rambunctious adolescent? Transform him into a civilized adult. As for the grownups, no dog is too old to learn new tricks -- or better manners. The Dog Trainer explains how to get the polite behaviors you want and turn those behaviors into lifelong habits. Whether you're housetraining, teaching your dog to roll over, or wondering how to evaluate a dog walker, The Dog Trainer can help. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
