I love these podcasts!! Even though I have been involved in breeding and showing for many years, I can not believe how much I have learnt from Laura and her guests. We live in NZ, and these podcasts make us feel not so far away from the rest of the dog world, to have this kind of information shared is remarkable. Allison Foley is my fave Laura guest and as a result listening to her, we have purchased several of the Leading Edge Dog Show Acadamy lessons and boy! they are good! Thank you Laura, amazing work. I can not recommend you highly enough!
I must admit, I've been very selfish about this podcast... my most recent obsession.. I wanted to ingest all of it before everyone else. Currently on episode 130 ? Laura Reeves is so engaging, informative and sincere it's hard not to get choked up when she does. The passion just pours out of her and her interviewees. She's everything I want to be for my #OEBCommunity ... She touches on health, education, wellness, giving back, SHOWS and the history of our beloved animals, animal rights and PUR RIGHTS TO HAVE & BREED our babies ?
I'm addicted. I love the shoptalk, and also the humor and friendliness.
What a great resource for a novice handler and breeder. Informative and very supportive! What a great way to promote purebred dogs, and support thoughtful breeding and confirmation (among other dog activities) in an unbiased and modern way. Kudos to Laura.
Thank you so much for all the info you share! I love this podcast and can’t wait to hear new episodes ?
Love listening to Laura while I walk, groom or drive to shows. Showing my first dog right now and it’s helping so much! Love Pure Dog Talk!
Love you Laura! I listen to this one as soon as an ep is posted. Great topics.
Each interview gives great insight into our sport. The deatil of history and how the sport is progressing should be heard by everyone involved in our sport. Well worth the time!!
These podcasts have information that I may have stored somewhere, but the succinct, timely and well detailed reminders are welcome! AND I'm learning so much new information to be a better owner, handler and trainer.
Excellent content on every subject with valuable information that all worldwide authorities could adopt. Unbiased, and practical knowledge.
Fascinating information I haven't found anywhere else! Thanks so much!
A must, if you show your own dogs!
I love the variety of topics and inclusion of top names all aspects of dog sports/breeding. Can't recommend this podcast enough to the purebred dog community!
My first one was 81. I will now have to go listen to the others.
Well produced, interesting, informative. Awesome!
Such a wonderful service to the fancy! People have said for years that it's sad to lose the wisdom and insights of the "great ones" of the sport. Thanks to Laura, these personal interviews will go on to inspire breeders and exhibitors of the future. I wish that the ones who are lost to us had had this avenue to share their knowledge in their own words.
Great information in compact, concise episodes in an array of interesting topics. I've learned a ton of helpful hints. Highly recommended.
I am just getting started into the dog show scene. Every podcast answers question and/or makes me aware of things I should know.
I enjoy the wide range of topics discussed on this podcast. I am slowly working up the courage to start showing my dog in conformation and it is a direct result of listening. This podcast breaks down many different aspects of dog sports but also discusses topics like whelping a litter, search and rescue, and up and coming new dog sports. Keep up the good work! Definitely one of my favorites!
This podcast is superb. It's very well done and filled wtih useful, insightful and entertaining information for any and all interested in purebred dogs and the activities that surround them. For passionate newbies (like me) and long term ethusiasts there is a lot to love here! I'm excited to hear more.
I have listened to just about every Pure Dog Talk podcast that I could find and learned something from every episode. Laura Reeves is an engaging host and her guests are among the best in the dog world. Laura's questions sometimes get a little long winded but they elicit informative responses. I wish there were more past episodes to download. Keep up the great work.
I REALLY enjoy Laura Reeves podcast! They are super for listening to while driving to a dog show. They are informative, professional, upbeat and often funny. Also enjoy her column in "Best In Show Daily".
From novice to pro this podcast is for everyone. Interesting topics and people. The puppy series was great and as I've just taken on the mantle of "specialty coordinator", Betty Anne's could not be more timely. I LOVE that we get three episodes a week! Thanks to all, great job.
Thank you for doing these informative and entertaining podcasts.
I am always looking for resources to better me as a breeder and a breeder-owner-handler. Happy to have found Pure Dog Talk!
This is a great podcast for all dog show people!! Although I am fairly new to the sport of dogs I learn something new with every podcast.
These podcasts give wonderful, up to date information about starting your dog right. It has been a long time since I have had a puppy and now I have the tools to help my dog get it right. Mary and Laura are very knowledgeable and share their knowledge. Super podcasts.
Excellent and informative!
I am so excited to have open access to the latest in education, training and expertise from some of the best in the dog world. Kudos on being a one-stop-shop for all things dog....
Really enjoyed "Bomb Proof your Puppy"! Very pro- nice podcast!
I've been a fan since the beginning, and I'm glad to see something catering to our dog world. I've downloaded them all, and listen to the podcasts on long trips to dog shows, or just quick jaunts across town. My only feedback would be for the hosts to remember that not everyone has been in the sport forever, so maybe a little introduction and background to some of the guests would be good. Otherwise, top notch!
Well done, badly needed
What we all wish we'd known when we got our first puppy. Really invaluable information on socializing the right way!
Great for dog people of all levels, a great review for anyone, and guidance for those new to dog sports. Thank you for all your hard work!
If you are a dog lover you'll want to know about this PODCAST. Professional and experienced guests are asked interesting questions and give expert insight and advice. I'm super excited to have found this Podcast. I can't get enough of it. For those who do not have mentors, or their mentors are not the best communicators, this show is greatly appreciated. I feel like I've found gold at the end of a rainbow. I want more episodes and I want them longer! lol :) Thank you, thank you, thank you for doing this Podcast.
It is great advice I am gonna use all of your advice for the new puppy's and my other dogs
Terrific, honest and fun podcast all about dog shows. Finally, here's someone explaining dog shows in detail without being too "inside baseball". Great discussions whether you're just starting out in dogs or have spent a lifetime handling. EVERY new dog owner should listen and every breeder should share with their puppy owners.
BRAVO to Mary Albee and Laura Reeves for creating this amazing podcast! I love that the topics change, so there is something for every purebred dog lover.
I listen to different local Northwest podcasts every day. Dog Talk is my new favorite! My 7 year old daughter who is in 4-H with dogs loves it too and requested that I share it with all the kids. I've shown dogs for 28 years but still found so many helpful pearls. And a great way to reinforce good habits. Keep them coming!
This podcast is fantastic at explaining the in's and out's of handling your dog. I am new to the sport and love it!
This podcast is a great resource for the purebred dog owner!
Pure Dog Talk pod cast are very informative and easy to follow. Laura does a great job explaining how to work with your dog to get the most out of them in the show ring. I have only listened to the first 4 so far and I look forward to listening to many more to help improve my showmanship and my dogs performance.
Clear and concise information with a friendly tone. As a brand new exhibitor (of Standard Poodles, no less!!), the information presented in these episodes are priceless!
This a a great podcast by long-time dog people: breeder, handler, owner. Laura is a straight shooter and has been in dogs since birth. She has a wealth of experience to share—all you have to do is listen!!
This is an amazing source of information from professional handlers in the know. So much to learn from the professionals. Wish I had access to this info years ago.
Love it! Great for dog show enthusiasts!
What an awesome new resource for purebred dog owners!
Sometimes audio is a tough medium to work with. When people are busy and buildings are noisy. Sometimes you just have to go back to your roots…. I absolutely LOVED the talks and knowledge *I* gained in the conversations that led to this article… I hope you enjoy this story as much as I did.
