Description:

Poorly trained dogs can be a menace to wildlife and livestock – and are a major issue in the UK countryside. This week, host Fergus is joined by friend of the Plodcast James Fair and his dog Dakota to explore the issue.


Dakota, James and Fergus spend a day with dog trainer extraordinaire Helen Merrett in the Gloucestershire countryside to discover the most effective methods for understanding and controlling your dog so that you can have enjoyable, stress-free walks.


Helen Merrett is the owners of Just Paws – find out more at https://justpaws.co.uk
