Brooklyn, the greyhound who inspires Christine A. Dorchak and Carey Theil

If you’ve been around here for a while, you might remember Christine A. Dorchak and Carey Theil, the founders of GREY2K USA Worldwide, a non-profit advocacy organization working to end the cruelty of greyhound racing across the globe.

Christine and Carey shared their personal journeys and how they both became passionate about helping greyhounds when they were the Pawsome Humans in the Christmas edition of the Weekly Treat.

Now they shared the remarkable work they do on the TEDx stage:

This week’s Pawsome Human: Paul Owens - Celebrating Compassionate Dog Training with the Original Dog Whisperer

In this heartwarming episode, I sit down with the original dog whisperer, Paul Owens, to discuss his journey in dog training over the last 50 years.

Paul shares insights from his latest book celebrating the progress in treating dogs with empathy and kindness.

We explore the dramatic shift from viewing dogs as property to seeing them as family members and the profound impact of positive reinforcement training.

Paul emphasizes the importance of increasing your value to your dog through rewards and building positive behavioral habits. We delve into science-backed methods and the joy of connecting with our furry friends.

Don't miss Paul's invaluable tips and the announcement of his book, which includes videos demonstrating these concepts in action.

The Bio: Paul is the best-selling author of The Dog Whisperer: A Compassionate Non-violent Approach to Dog Training, The Puppy Whisperer: A Compassionate, Nonviolent Guide to Early Training and Care, and the 2024 release of Training for the Joy of Dogs  Fifty Lessons Learned.

In 2015, Paul was one of 27 individuals in the world accredited by the prestigious Pet Professional Guild Accreditation Board as Professional Canine Trainer. In 2019, he was recognized as one of the 10 Top Dog Trainers in the United States by Topdogtips.com.

His public service work has included prison programs,  safety and bite prevention programs in elementary schools and high schools and monthly dog training classes in shelters, rescues and Humane Societies.

“I believe nonviolence fosters nonviolence. Because of the link between dog and human behavior, nonviolent dog training contributes to helping build a world of peace for humans and dogs. When people, especially children, are successful using nonviolent methods with animals, they are empowered and encouraged to share and manifest a kinder, more peaceful attitude with their friends, family, and the environment.”
