About this episode

Successful dog training is all about conditioning and giving rewards for good behavior. Yet when we want people to change their behavior, we are more inclined to criticize and correct the negative more than we reward the positive. So what if we treated people the way a dog trainer trains a dog? That’s what Dr. Karen London advocates. Karen is an experienced dog trainer and behaviorist and she is author of a book called Treat Everyone Like a Dog (https://amzn.to/3m9y1w1). Listen as she explains how to take the principles of positive dog training and use them to get people to do what you want without fighting and criticism.

Our language is constantly changing in interesting and sometimes unusual ways.

David is a writer and editor at the Guardian and author of the book, Don't Believe a Word: The Surprising Truth About Language (https://amzn.to/3ngvp0x)
