This episode comes with a long list of warning signs. The graphic descriptions of domestic violence in this survivor story can be triggering to some. But the scenes depicted needed to be included so listeners can know what often happens in unhealthy relationships. Please decide carefully whether you should listen to this episode or not. Kelly Sutliff felt she had the perfect husband until the day he nearly killed her. There were warning signs, but she either did not interpret them or she ignored them. Kelly tells us exactly what it was like to be married to this man. We can see how easy it is to be tricked by someone as practiced as her husband, Chris. She will explain, in detail, the day she was nearly murdered by him. Today, as a survivor, Kelly has managed to pick up the pieces of her life and is living a better life than she would ever have imagined. For protection after she broke free from her abusive predator husband, Kelly acquired a protection dog named Stella. This led to her immense appreciation and love for these life-protectors. She now has two additional protection dogs. If that is not enough, Kelly started a non-profit to help both train protection dogs and find those in need of these magnificent dogs. It's entitled Kelly's K9s, Tails of Courage. You can learn more by following the link provided here: Kelly's K9s, Tails of Courage.⁠ You can donate to Kelly's K9s by following this link. Kelly's K9s relies solely on your generous donations and support.  It costs a minimum of $25,000 to breed and train a protection dog.  While $25,000 may seem like a significant amount, the safety and empowerment of domestic violence survivors are worth every penny.  Their lives, their futures, and their right to live free from fear and harm are priceless.  NOTE: If you are a survivor and want to share your story of abuse on the WHEN DATING HURTS Podcast, please email me: ⁠⁠BillMitchell@WhenDatingHurts.com⁠⁠ The ⁠⁠WHEN DATING HURTS book⁠⁠ (in paperback, eBook, and audiobook) can be found on Amazon.

Send us a textNo special guest for episode #50. We reflected on the previous 49 episodes and discussed changes that we have made to our detection and tracking. Some of these changes came from ideas from some of our guests. Some of these changes have proven to be very helpful with certain dogs, but the one constant is that they are not all the same. What works particularly well for one dog may not work so well for the next. So, as we have said many times on the podcast you have to train the dog in front you. With more tools in our tool belt we now find ourselves evaluating what method works best with each particular dog. There is not one method that works perfectly for every dog. Many of the things we do are nuanced. One person may do it slightly different and yield a different result.  The more you learn the more you evolve and grow. These are the things that makes this work so interesting.  We appreciate each of you and thank you for listening. Please continue to support our sponsor.

What to listen for:Robin Greubel and Crystal Wing return with the brilliant Katylynn Sloan for part two of their conversation on the intersection between chemistry and K9 detection!“Train with as much variety as often as you can, in the weirdest of circumstances you can possibly get to, with as many groups and as many people as you can.”Katylynn dives into one of the most misunderstood topics in the detection world: training aids. She breaks down why the term “pseudo” is falling out of favor, replaced by “alternative training aids,” and classifies them into four types: dilution, absorption, mimic, and vigilance. Each has its pros and pitfalls. Mimics, for instance, rely on human interpretation of what's important for a dog to smell—sometimes right, sometimes not. And vigilance aids? They're about maintaining search behavior, not the odor itself.Katylynn also emphasizes the importance of language. As a member of standards boards like ASB and OSAC, she helps shape definitions so handlers, trainers, and scientists are all speaking the same language in courtrooms and classrooms alike. It's not just about what you know, but how clearly you can explain it. Her advice to aspiring canine scientists? Master problem-solving, communication, and the humility to say, “I don't know.”She also touches on the challenges of HRD training, the evolving definitions of “real” odor, and how even “duh” science needs to be written down. Her message to handlers? Train broadly. Generalization is key. Get variety in odors, people, places, and aids—because you never know what the real world will throw at your dog.Dogs are really good. But they're even better when guided by thoughtful, curious humans willing to adapt, collaborate, and learn. Katylynn's passion isn't just informative—it's contagious.Key Topics:Revising Standards and Defining "Real" Odor (0:59)Introduction to Alternative Training Aids (03:27)Mimics and Human Interpretation in Training Aids (07:30)Applying Dilution/Absorption Concepts to HRD (15:14)Public Comment Process and Impact on Standards (17:18)Skills and Traits for Aspiring K9 Scientists (22:53)Final Takeaways: Variety, Generalization, and Collaboration (39:52)Resources:The manipulation of odor availability of training aids used in detection canine trainingAAFS Academy Standards BoardLindsay Waldrop's LabWe want to hear from you:Check out the K9 Detection Collaborative FB page and comment on the episode post!K9Sensus Detection Dog Trainer AcademyK9Sensus Foundation can be found on Facebook and Instagram.

Fromt he Claremont PD, Officer DJ O'Sullivan is here as we talk about the canine program in Claremont, having 2 dogs in rotation, what it takes to be a dog handler, the training involved, what his dog's specialty is, what happens after a K9 retires, and more.

Primordial Fight comes from within not from the illusion. Whats the illusion? Possession....... This niche community have lost the way to the "Sport Dog" concept, they use bite suits and equipment for fun, not for protection. This "Specialized Being" we call a Working K9 has been diluted by Possesssion. Intellect is taking over Intelligence.. Then breeding is causing generational trauma that get amplified thru epigenetics (subconscious impulses) triggered by the environment handed out to LE, Military / Home Owners where they don't perform properly in a neutral state.  This episode I go over Love and Fear emotions in a K9 and how possession is an addiction that is causing Conflict, in the dogs and the handlers.  Primordial Fight is a way of life for both handler and the K9. This is a topic that is lacking Intelligence in this niche community. 

This month's episode of Public Safety Thursday with Captain Warren Gosnell from the Frederick County Sheriff's Office featured an in-depth conversation about their K9 Unit. Captain Gosnell shared with host Janet Michael about the vital role these specialized officers and their canine partners play in public safety. He addresses the complex responsibilities and essential duties performed by the K9 unit.  The discussion centered around the nuanced roles these canines play—from tracking and trailing to detecting illegal substances. Captain Gosnell elaborated on the types of dogs in the unit, mentioning Enzo the Dutch Shepherd, Milo the German Shepherd, and Blue the Bloodhound, among others. He emphasized the specialized training these dogs undergo and the ongoing commitment required from their handlers. For instance, Captain Gosnell shared an experience from a recent training exercise where a dog tracked a hidden handler across different terrains—grass, pavement, and more—demonstrating their impressive olfactory abilities. Training sessions are rigorous and continuous to ensure the dogs remain at the top of their game, especially when tasked with real-world emergencies. Janet and Goz joshed about the intricacies of their own pet care routines, drawing a parallel to the intense training and responsibility shouldered by K9 handlers. The hosts also discussed the emotional bonds that form between the handlers and their dogs, making it understandable why most handlers choose to adopt their partners upon the dogs' retirement. Captain Gosnell explained the master deputy ranking system and how these specially-trained deputies have accumulated years of experience and mastery in their field. Five of the six deputies in the unit have earned this prestigious title, highlighting their dedication and expertise. As the show wrapped up, Janet and Goz encouraged listeners to consider adopting or rescuing pets. Captain Gosnell lifted the mood by acknowledging the various officers and their respective canine partners, offering a heartfelt salute to their invaluable service to the community. The broadcast was a fascinating peek into the world of K9 units, their training, and the unyielding commitment of both the officers and their dogs to public safety. If you weren't already a fan of these four-legged heroes, today's enlightening discussion surely gave you paws for thought.

Some food stuff this morning, including jalapenos in your wine, a caviar & cocktail combo that costs $33,000, Starbucks looking for influencers to fly around the world, Did you catch Peyton Manning playing golf this weekend with Scottie Scheffler? Needless to say, it didn't go well for the former Colts QB.

Send us a textWe truly enjoyed interviewing Tony. There will likely be a second episode. After listening to this one we know you'll see why we need to have him on again. Lots of subjects were covered in a slightly longer episode than normal. Tony Pallotta started training dogs in 1993, with over 25 years of experience thus far, his knowledge and experience has made him a leader within his industry. Like most it is not uncommon he started out in obedience training and found within him the passion and desire to learn, absorb and to become more competent and proficient within. It was with that mindset and goal he began to study and train in the sport of Schutzhund. Once he became proficient in Schutzhund as a successful handler and decoy. He realized early on that he felt there were some key components missing that caused him to raise some questions about what was being achieved and what was being taught to believe in. Subsequently he continued on with his desire to study and research and he began to prepare dogs for protection sports. This tested the handler's skills as well as the dog's skills to work in un-patterned programs. This is known as a real street type application in personal protection for both K9 and Handler. This experience allowed the furthering of comprehension and knowledge base by competing in protection venues such as, K9 Pro Sport's, Sundog Protection Pro Series and Iron dog.His desire to understand and specialize within the field took him to Italy. While in Italy working with Renzo Zolli and his community of training partners reaching into Austria and abroad, there a re-affirmation of skill set and advancement occurred. The realization that there was so much more to learn he continued on his travels to study disciplines and to further acquire a knowledge of skills and excellence, it was then that he landed in the Netherlands and began working with Erik Huft in the KNPV program. This was an unanticipated, eye opening experience for Tony and a catapult into a whole new style of training in the world of working dogs. At that time little was known about the Royal Dutch Police Dog Association Program outside of the Netherlands. Many of the world's Elite Military and police K9's have come from this program and it was with great honor for Tony to have been given the opportunity to work and study with such high caliber trainer's.https://workingk9.ca/workingk9-trainer.htmlWe are pleased to announce that Vested Interest in K9's has become our newest sponsor.

Maine Warden Service Pilot Daryl Gordon was known for his faith, his love of family, fishing and flying, and his steadfast dedication to the people and natural resources of his home state. While flying over the North Maine Woods after a busy day of service, Pilot Gordon's Cessna went down in a snow squall, prompting a massive search. Warden Preston Pomerleau, whose K9 service partner is named in Gordon's honor, shares his memories of that day, and reflects on how the entire Maine Warden Service continues to honor and remember their friend.   “It is not how these officers died that made them heroes; it is how they lived.” ~ National Law Enforcement Memorial, Washington, DC    Our Sponsors: Thin Green Line Podcast Don Noyes Chevrolet North American Game Warden Museum Hunt Regs SecureIt Gun Storage XS Sights “A Cowboy in the Woods” Book Maine's Operation Game Thief International Wildlife Crimestoppers   Credits Hosts: Wayne Saunders and John Nores Producer: Jay Ammann Warden's Watch logo & Design: Ashley Hannett Research / Content Coordinator: Stacey DesRoches   Subscribe: Apple Podcasts Spotify Amazon Google Waypoint Stitcher TuneIn Megaphone Find More Here: Website Warden's Watch / TGL Store Facebook Facebook Fan Page Instagram Threads YouTube RSS Learn more about your ad choices.

Today we are sitting with one of our East coast brothers in retired Braintree Massachusetts PD and founder of the KITT Foundation, Billy Cushing. Billy was a 17-year veteran of the Braintree Police Department where he served as a patrol K9 Handler for 10 of those years. He is a two-time recipient of the Geroge Hannah Award for Valor among other honors. In this episode Billy tells the story of his K9 partner, Kitt, and the bond and partnership they shared.   On June 4th, 2021 Billy, Kitt, and backup officers responded to a domestic dispute at an apartment complex on McCusker Drive, in which the suspect fled to a wooded area. Billy and Kitt began their trek to locate the suspect when they were ambushed by the suspect, who was hiding. Kitt, upon locating the suspect, advanced into the hail of gunfire. Kitt was struck by 3 fatal bullets and Billy was hit 5 times and Officer Donoghue was hit once during this gunfight. The suspect was eliminated during this gunbattle. Billy was critically injured during this incident but recovered to start a new mission and journey to honor his hero partner Kitt. In the wake of Kitts death Billy organized a Foundation, named the KITT Foundation, that would connect members of the public interested in providing support to K9 Teams across the country. Dallas Police K9 Handler, Scott Jay sat in as a cohost.   HTTPS://K9KITTFOUNDATION.COM

Matt Allert and Deputy Shane Day (Riverside Sheriff's K9) debrief a deployment in which the use of a canine brings a dangerous situation to a safe conclusion. Episode Summary In this episode of Police K9 Radio, we break down a powerful real-world deployment where a police K9's decision-making and training directly saved the life of a suspect.

If you're a working handler, supervisor, or trainer, this episode is a must-listen. We dissect the incident step-by-step, focusing on tactical choices, canine control, and the split-second decisions that made the difference between life and death. What You'll Learn • Real-World Deployment Analysis: How a K9 team's restraint, control, and training helped preserve life during a volatile encounter. • Handler Judgement Under Pressure: Making the right call when lives are on the line — including the suspect's. • Training That Transfers to the Street: Why your obedience, out, and recall reps matter more than ever. • Tactical Integration: How the K9 handler worked seamlessly with patrol and command to manage the scene. • Ethics and Expectations: The evolving role of police K9s in a time where every bite, video, and decision is scrutinized. Why It Matters This episode challenges conventional thinking and highlights the life-saving potential of police dogs beyond apprehension. It's a wake-up call for those still chasing bites and ignoring discipline, control, and scenario-based training.

In this powerful episode of The MisFitNation, host Rich LaMonica sits down with Ben Vernon, a U.S. Air Force veteran whose journey from military K9 handler to successful dog training entrepreneur is a testament to resilience, adaptability, and passion. Ben's story begins with zero prior experience with dogs before the Air Force assigned him to be a canine handler. Through his military training, he developed a deep understanding of K9 behavior, training techniques, and security operations. His skills led him to an elite Secret Service mission, providing security for President Trump in 2020. Inspired by conversations with Secret Service K9 handlers, Ben pursued an opportunity with them—only to have the door close at the last minute. Instead of letting that setback define him, Ben pivoted to dog training as a career, realizing it was both profitable and deeply fulfilling. Taking a leap of faith, he and his wife relocated to Tampa, Florida, ranked as one of the most dog-friendly cities in the U.S., to turn his passion into a full-time business.

Mike Ritland served as a United States Navy SEAL for 12 years. During his service, he navigated the training ground and battlefield within the special operations community. While on deployment in Iraq with a group of Marines and their combat K9, this highly trained combat dog saved the Marines' lives during a dangerous operation, making the K9 a true hero. And just like that, a light switch went off for Mike. Using the knowledge gained as a SEAL and his growing experience with the most elite dogs in the world, he left the military in 2008 to start his own dog company, Trikos International. Trikos' reputation, forged from Mike's career as a SEAL, grew rapidly. The company was awarded government contracts with DHS, DOD, TSA, and Customs & Border Protection. Circa 2010, Mike Ritland and Trikos International accepted the contract as the training group for the West Coast SEAL Canine Program and reunited Mike with his former teammates. Trikos became a highly reputable dog training & procurement company that specialized in providing working K9s to a multitude of clients to include celebrities, private individuals, and government agencies. Mike's career brought him full circle while working on the West Coast. He discovered that former high-level working dogs were being euthanized when they could no longer serve. Most of these dogs were psychologically compromised from chaotic and traumatic experiences that occurred while “doing the job.” After years of service in some of the worst places on earth, they were physically broken down, causing many to default to aggression. Mike saw this as another opportunity to make an impact, so he started the Warrior Dog Foundation. The purpose of the foundation is to prevent euthanization and provide care & dignity to retired working dogs who have served in any capacity. Some dogs are rehabbed or rehomed, if possible. For others, the goal is to make them comfortable while bringing them back to health. Since 2010, the foundation has cared for over 200 dogs who were all scheduled for euthanization. Training and rehabbing the finest working dogs on the globe provided empirical data for what all breeds require mentally, physically, and emotionally. The methods and proper canine nutrition required to care for these warriors further expanded Mike's experience, thus revolutionizing his methods.
