Zak George, one of the most influential dog trainers of the 21st century, has been using his large virtual platform to bring attention to the problematic methods being used by the Internet-famous dog trainer known as Dog Daddy.
Zak and Annie discuss the origins of this work, his efforts to get his followers to picket Dog Daddy's events, and more.
Annie also talks about why the conversation about whether or not it is advisable to use force in dog training feels especially important right now.
