August Call for Questions and Deep Dive (Ignoring Distractions!)

Q&A Live: Wednesday August 6th @1pm ET (check your email for the live invite or come to Patreon on that day and time)

Deep Dive Live: Tuesday August 12th @6 pm ET (link in separate post for Inner Circle) Topic: Ignoring Distractions/Neutrality  (details below)

What is a Live Q&A vs. a Deep Dive? 

Live Q&A's typically last 45-60 minutes and are open to all paid DOGGY•U members. Inner Circle members can submit a question prior to the live. Q&A's are recorded and you can find every Q&A I've ever done in the "Q&A" section in the "Collections" tab. 

Deep Dive's typically last 30-60 minutes and are recorded and posted to the Deep Dive Collection. They focus on one topic, covered in a webinar-style lecture. Deep Dive's are a member benefit for Inner Circle members.  

LIVESTREAM Q&A INFO:

This month I we will again be using the Patreon Live feature for our Q&A, so you can attend live directly on Patreon or go back and watch the replay. You'll be able to put follow-up questions in the chat. Reminder that questions should be related to the topic I am currently covering and I do not take non-related questions during the Q&A.

Those members who are at the Inner Circle ($20/month) level are able to submit one question per month with their membership. Leave that question in the comments below.

The cut-off for submitting questions is 2 days prior to the live (Monday August 4th by 1pm ET is the last date to submit) so that I have time to prepare. Please limit questions to 1 per person so I have time to answer them within the hour. Questions should be general enough that I don't need to know your specific dog/behavior to answer the question (this also allows everyone to benefit from the question).

DEEP DIVE INFO: Ignoring Distractions with Taylor Lima

Tuesday August 12th @6 pm ET (link in separate post for Inner Circle)

This month I'm bringing on my friend and colleague Taylor Lima of Pup to Perfection to speak on training dogs to work around and ignore distractions. If your dog struggles with distractions, you'll definitely want to join as Taylor shares her expertise, along with real life exercises and video examples!
