What to listen for:

The Dames of Detection, are joined by Martha Hoffman, who is acclaimed for her work with the San Francisco SPCA in training rescue dogs as service animals. Martha unravels the mysteries behind canine temperaments suitable for service work, focusing on the essential trait of positive sound reactivity.

As Robin, Crystal, and Martha circle back to the art of training dogs, they reveal the challenges of encouraging independence while keeping them tuned in to their handlers, especially in tasks like sound work or scent detection. The conversation takes a turn into the compelling strategies used in training for bed bug detection, where precision is king. By the end of this episode, you'll have a new appreciation for the complex dance of independence and obedience in our four-legged friends. And, don’t miss part two of this convo next week!
