What to listen for:“Trust your dog, but trust your training first.”Our hosts, Robin Greubel and Stacy Barnett, welcome back veteran USAR handler Bob Deeds to talk about the artificial divide between working dog and sport detection communities, and why both sides desperately need each other!Bob shares his journey from FEMA disaster work into nose work, leading into his innovative "geo-scenting" protocol. This hybrid sport combines geocaching with scent detection using clove oil, specifically chosen to avoid the venue-hopping confusion he observed in sport handlers who switched between organizations.Sport handlers often remain clique-ish, loyal to single venues (K9 Nose Work vs. NACSW) despite identical underlying science. Bob advocates aggressively for cross-training, noting how watching elite sport handlers transformed his leash skills after a Belgian trainer bluntly told him they "sucked."Meanwhile, working dog handlers can learn environmental assessment and body language reading from sport competitors operating under time pressure. Bob describes sport handlers' eyes "scanning like machines" upon room entry.He also considers puzzle work as the great equalizer. He recounts how a struggling student's reactive Standard Poodle transformed after two weeks of pure puzzle training.All this and more in this episode of K9 Detection Collaborative! Key Topics:Geo-Scenting Origins and Clove Oil Selection (08:04)Building Confidence Through Scent Work in Reactive Dogs (16:00)Environmental Assessment Skills in Sport vs. Working Dogs (17:56)Leash Handling Skills and Learning from Sport Handlers (19:34)Final Response Debate and Reading Body Language (21:02)The Clique Problem in Sport Detection Communities (26:13)Puzzle Training Philosophy and Adapting on the Fly (35:58)Takeaways (41:15) Resources:Dog Scouts of America: GeoScentingCanine ConnectionK9 Sensus: Using Chickens to Train TrainersFenzi Dog Sports Academy: Schedule We 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.

This episode we head to Soda Springs, Idaho to visit with Tony and Monica Rosen of Dirtbag Ranch—first-generation Texas Longhorn breeders and well-known Bloodhound breeders/trainers. We dig into how they built a Longhorn program from scratch, what they prioritize in structure and disposition, and how Idaho weather, forage, and terrain shape day-to-day decisions. Then we switch collars to talk Bloodhounds—breeding philosophy, training foundations, and how nose work, patience, and reading behavior carry over to working cattle.Tony and Monica share the realities of juggling two serious programs, winter prep and calving in the high country, fencing and handling for calm cattle, and the community that's helped them learn fast. It's a conversation about grit, good dogs, good cattle—and carving out a ranch identity on fresh ground.Dirtbag Ranch: https://www.dirtbagranchid.com/THE NOSE KNOWS: Missing local 8-year-old found safe thanks to community effort and bloodhound Miss MaeSend us a text From the Pasture with Hired Hand:Hired Hand Websites (@hiredhandwebsites): https://hiredhandsoftware.comHired Hand Live (@hiredhandlive): https://hiredhandlive.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/hiredhandwebsites/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/HiredHandSoftwareTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@hiredhandwebsitesNewsletter: https://www.hiredhandsoftware.com/resources/stay-informed

In this episode, I'm talking about working dogs—and what happens when one goes missing. After a brief life update, I share the story of our livestock guardian dog, Ranger, and the events leading up to his disappearance. From late-night disturbances to injuries on multiple dogs, this episode explores the reality of relying on a guardian dog to protect a farm and the emotional weight of not knowing what happened. I also address common misconceptions about working dogs, especially livestock guardian breeds like Great Pyrenees—how they're raised, why they live differently than house pets, and why pet standards don't always apply to working roles. Drawing from my background with hunting, herding, and farm dogs, I explain the difference between livestock guardians and farm guardians and invite listeners to think critically about breed-specific needs, farm protection, and respectful support during hard seasons.

Do you remember the feeling you had when you first started hunting? Maybe it was the first time you were able to hunt on your own with no supervision. If you were born before social media it was not an event to capture content for likes and shares.

This week marks 8 years since the finale of the beloved series "Wishbone". In the 1990s, PBS introduced young audiences to a canine star like none other: a Jack Russell terrier who imagined himself as characters from classic works of literature. The show was called Wishbone. Today there's a whole generation of adults who were first weaned on Mark Twain, the legend of Faust or the Greek epics through this series. Wishbone is also the first TV show Mo wrote for. Mo talks with Wishbone head writer Stephanie Simpson and dog trainer Jackie Kaptan about the show and the life and career of its beloved lead actor, a dog named Soccer.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
