OneMind Dogs - From the Dog's Perspective

In this last episode of our second season, we explore the remarkable journey of Beth MacLeod, a devoted dog lover and professional trainer living just outside Boston, United States.
With a lifelong passion for dogs, Beth shares how a single book transformed her approach to dog training in the late '90s, leading to a career dedicated to enhancing the bond between dogs and their people.
"What I thought a dog was, became something totally different." Since then, Beth MacLeod has been devoted to changing people's perspectives. She serves as the Director of Training and Behavior at a local humane society and runs a business focused on helping dogs and their owners overcome behavioral challenges.
Having lived with dogs almost all her life, she currently shares a home with three beloved dogs: two Goldens and a senior Pekingese, who all play a central role in her dreams and daily life.
This episode delves into the philosophy that dogs are more than pets; they are friends and family members who fill our lives with joy. Our guest emphasizes the importance of understanding and respecting dogs for who they are, fostering a relationship built on trust and mutual respect, and how OneMind Dogs has helped her on this journey.
Listen to the episode and get inspired by stories of personal growth, the transformative power of positive reinforcement, and great stories from her experiences as a behaviorist and work at the local humane society.
