SESSION 77: Conversation with Angie Burlingame of A Dog’s Life
In today’s episode, and after a few recording attempts, I sit down with Angie Burlingame, owner of A Dog’s Life Training School. Angie’s a trainer that uses a a board-and-train style method, and offers 2 and 3-week programs. She’s based in my neck of the woods (Woodinville, Washington) and we talk in detail about what a typical session would look like for those interested in this type of method for training your dog. Angie and I have known each other for a long time, but this was the first time speaking together in person. Enjoy!

In this session:
Angie and I go in detail, starting with how a boarding type training session begins. We talk about her initial analysis and what initial evaluation steps are important to her. She has a very positive-minded style and technique, and is extremely conscientious about her approach to dogs.
Some of the fun stuff we talk about are;
- How Angie got started (we have a similar story about our sort of “pre-dog training” corporate lives)
- What led her into the field of dog training
- Some of the important keys for her to analyze how a dog behaves on first approach
- What she thinks of training with treats
- What kind of criteria leads her to use a 3-week training approach
- We’ll talk a bit about thoughts on “pack” training
- How a “boarding” style of training differs and what is involved in the process
