THE CONVERSATION
Episode notes
Rachel Welch is the founder of Dogs Walk This Way Rescue, an organisation that recently found itself at the centre of a controversy involving the RSPCA. The RSPCA ended its affiliation with Rachel's rescue group following concerns about the organisation's association with a trainer alleged to use aversive training methods. The decision has sparked debate about dog training, animal welfare, and the role of different training philosophies in rescue work.One thing is certain: these are the kinds of conversations that have to occur if we want to see real change. Change in Britain and around the world in how rescue dogs are trained, and their welfare is judged, especially when it affects the dogs these rescue workers work so hard to protect.Dogs Walk This Way Rescue Website: https://dogswalkthiswayrescue.com/index.html____________________William Chandler-Duff is one of the UK’s most sought-after dog trainers for behaviour modification and advanced functional obedience.
