Found It, Fetched It - Your Weekly Dose of Gundog Wisdom from the LWDG

• 193. Why Force Free Fails High Drive Dogs

  Ever found yourself totally confused by the conflicting training advice buzzing around online? It feels like you’re constantly being told to aim for this impossible ideal, a kind of training perfection, that just doesn't seem to work with your chaotic, high-drive gundog. You’re trying to be kind, but your dog is eating the doormat and ignoring your existence. I get it. We’ve been there. This week on Found It, Fetched It, Claire and I are laying it all out: the whole concept of "force free" as it's often peddled online cannot and does not exist in the real world. We champion kindness and reward-based training all day long, but we also live with real dogs who need real boundaries. We want you to feel safe, supported, and confident in saying, "Uhuh, no," when it matters most. Boundaries are not the opposite of kindness; they are the foundation of a safe, happy life for your dog.Thanks for joining us for this episode of Found It, Fetched It.

• 191. Why You Train Differently To Everyone

  Have you ever watched a friend train their gundog and thought, “Why am I reacting like this, and they’re so calm about the exact same thing?” It’s easy to fall into the comparison trap, feeling like you’re doing it all wrong simply because your approach is different. But what if that difference wasn’t a weakness, but a key to unlocking your most effective training style?We recently sat down with our brilliant LWDG mindset coach, Emma Liddell, a trained psychotherapist, who has noticed powerful patterns in the way we women handle and train our dogs. Her new framework, The Dog Handler Archetypes, is a self-awareness tool designed to help you understand your core drivers, work with your strengths, and finally soften the edges that might be holding you back. It’s a game-changer that goes beyond obedience and straight to the heart of why you train the way you do.Thanks for joining us for this episode of Found It, Fetched It.

• 190. Genes Load The Gun Environment Pulls Trigger - Seven Lenses Series

  Ever found yourself peering at your dog's pedigree, trying to piece together a blueprint of who they are? Maybe you’ve felt that mysterious pull of their innate behaviours—that tiny puppy pointing at a feather, or the Springer Spaniel suddenly diving headfirst into a hedge. It can feel like pure voodoo, like trying to bake a perfect cake without truly knowing all the ingredients.This episonde on the podcast, we’re peeling back the curtain on one of our seven lenses of dog behaviour: Genetics. We’re untangling the genes from the mittens with LWDG Mindset Coach, Emma Liddell, to bring you clarity and a huge dose of reassurance. Because here’s the truth we all need to hear: Genetics create potential, not certainty. Your dog’s behaviour is not their destiny, and understanding this is the key to letting go of the guilt and training smarter, not harder.Thanks for joining us for this episode of Found It, Fetched It.
