S5:E14 Reading The Dog In Front Of You: Temperament Assessments & Behaviour (Guest: Jens Didriksen)

Dog trainer Jens Didriksen from NorAus Canine Services joins Sam and Max to chat about his journey into dog training and the experiences that shaped his approach.

Jens is also one of our locum TDA temperament assessors, and shares his perspective on what goes into a comprehensive therapy dog assessment and why handler education matters.

They also dive into neuroscience, reactivity and aggression, reading stress signals, breed drives and why understanding the dog in front of you is so important.

A great listen for therapy dog handlers and anyone wanting to better understand their dog.
