Unveiling the Wonders of ACE Free Work: Transformative Dog Training Insights with Jo from Paw and Order Noosa

In this engaging episode, I had the pleasure of chatting with Jo from Paw and Order Noosa, based in beautiful Queensland, Australia.

Jo shares her inspiring journey into the world of dog training, initiated during the COVID-19 pandemic with the innovative Animal Centered Education (ACE) Free Work method developed by Sarah Fisher.

We discuss the principles behind ACE Free Work, a technique that uses different sensory stimuli and environments to help dogs feel safe, relaxed, and naturally expressive. Jo delves into the practical aspects of setting up free work stations, recognizing individual dog needs, and the incredible benefits this method brings, especially for reactive dogs.

By providing dogs with choices and observing their behaviors, caregivers can build stronger bonds, enhance trust, and potentially uncover hidden health issues. Jo's ongoing educational journey with Sarah Fisher aims to bring this unique approach to dog training in Australia, and she shares insightful advice for both novice and seasoned dog caregivers.

Tune in to discover the magic of free work and how it can transform your relationship with your dog.

Website: https://vrushaliandblossom.com/does-a-rescue-dog-need-training/

Bio: Early on, I decided if my child can be well mannered without having candy everytime he throws a tantrum, then my dogs don't need treats either. We welcomed Golden Retriever puppy girl Blossom in April 2018 and Marshal, our very own rehomed adult Catalan Sheepdog rescue, our secret Santa in December 2018. The no-treats formula took time, modification, patience and hard work on my part- but I can confidently attest- it worked for us!
I like to say "I had 6 months of hard work for many many honeymoon years!"

My name is Vrushali, Operations Manager with Blossom my Telepathy energy partner at vrushaliandblossom.com

Together we are your personal mentors for properly goofing off. Sifting through a superficial lifestyle to get to the sparkle of living a rich, meaningful life. With a little help from your very own fur buddies.
