Can dogs provide a gateway to a richer emotional life? When Skye the lurcher entered the home of Lisa Tenzin-Dolma, he provided her with new depths of understanding of canine communication. Lisa has been an influential force within the dog industry and played a pivotal role in educating future generations of trainers and behaviour consultants. During this conversation we talk about changes in the industry and what they mean for the future of dog training, as well as ways we can build harmonious lives with our dogs. We discuss Skye's rambunctious teenage phase and how he went on to help many other dogs recover from trauma and live better lives. This is a 'that dog' story that celebrates the power of friendship.
