Speaker 1: have a guest in the studio today, Tom Gun likes Tom,
Speaker 1: thank you for.
Speaker 2: Joining me, sir, well, thank you for having me.
Speaker 1: And usually you've been sitting in this chair. Recently he's
Speaker 1: been doing a podcast, it's the Dog Behavior Podcast Pawdcast.
Speaker 1: Heidi was like just quick on the gun thinking of that.
Speaker 2: We were looking for something and she came up with us.
Speaker 1: It's like how about this, and we're like, well why
Speaker 1: not that? So every Wednesday, the last couple of Wednesdays,
Speaker 1: we have another one that's out today. People can tune
Speaker 1: in and listen. And the thing that's really neat. You've
Speaker 1: been in this space for quite a while. How long
Speaker 1: ago did you kind of follow the calling calling to
Speaker 1: become a dog behavior.
Speaker 2: It's been almost twenty two years now.
Speaker 1: And what was it that And if they listened to
Speaker 1: the first podcast, I'll find out, But what was it
Speaker 1: that kind of drew you into this.
Speaker 2: I got bit by a dog when I was a
Speaker 2: paper boy and it made me afraid of dogs. And
Speaker 2: then I met my wife Sarah, and she was very,
Speaker 2: very involved with dogs, so if I wanted to be
Speaker 2: with her, I had to learn it. And I'm a
Speaker 2: competitive man. So then we built the boarding resort. I
Speaker 2: didn't take over right away because it was slow, but
Speaker 2: I kind of went, well, maybe I'll go do this
Speaker 2: and look at this, and I loved it. I loved
Speaker 2: the dogs, even the breathe I had been afraid of
Speaker 2: in the past. I learned how to love them, and
Speaker 2: being a competitive man, I knew I wasn't doing things right.
Speaker 2: So we went to a seminar and this guy that
Speaker 2: did dog behavior, Lee Mannix, tragically passed away, as I
Speaker 2: mentioned the first week in a car accident. But he
Speaker 2: was so I can't even describe it, just drew you
Speaker 2: in and drew me in. And then he told me
Speaker 2: I should become a dog behavior and I kind of
Speaker 2: laughed at him and said, Lee, I don't know anything.
Speaker 2: He goes, that's why you'll be good. Most people think
Speaker 2: they know a ton about it. You don't think you
Speaker 2: know anything, and you'll be good at it. Yeh. So
Speaker 2: I went down to Austin, Texas a few times and
Speaker 2: trained with him, brought him up here once, and now
Speaker 2: over fifty eight hundred dogs later, here I am.
Speaker 1: And the stories that you and I have had a
Speaker 1: chance to talk about are just amazing to me. And
Speaker 1: we've had a chance to see at firsthand as well,
Speaker 1: So I know for a fact that Tom knows what
Speaker 1: he's talking about. And I think it's great that you're
Speaker 1: doing this podcast and the thing the snicce You've got.
Speaker 1: Some sponsors are kind of helping with this too. Let's
Speaker 1: talk a little bit about them.
Speaker 2: Yes, well, Todd Schoenfelder's got several businesses, but he's doing
Speaker 2: it mainly for his real estate group. And Pam, she's
Speaker 2: got this beautiful facility out out in the country up
Speaker 2: by Rowena and it is just absolutely gorgeous. I've been
Speaker 2: there several times and if you ever need someone coming
Speaker 2: to town to stay, I highly recommend it.
Speaker 1: River Valley Retreat.
Speaker 2: It is a River Valley retreat and it looks out
Speaker 2: over the river, and ironically enough, my oldest daughter just
Speaker 2: lives about three miles away from her there, so nice.
Speaker 2: But I'd never been in that area to see how
Speaker 2: nice it is. Yeah, that's neat. And then we have
Speaker 2: the tittors group that have several things do SSS Casinos,
Speaker 2: Jack Rose Social Club, Wiley's Downtown. Be supportive of all
Speaker 2: these people because they're all supporting me and of course
Speaker 2: precious pets. My wife and sister in law still own it.
Speaker 2: My son is the general manager. I have retired from
Speaker 2: managing the resort, but I still do my dog behavior
Speaker 2: down there and I love bumping into the clients that
Speaker 2: I had for years and years so when I have
Speaker 2: my doctorate need so it is very good, very enjoyable
Speaker 2: to do these podcasts. Hopefully can keep them going and
Speaker 2: keep them going. I've got many stories to tell about
Speaker 2: individual dogs that will really blow your mind.

Speaker 2: With me, and you've done a great job with it
Speaker 2: so well. Thank you very much.
Speaker 1: I've been trying to convince my wife you need to
Speaker 1: listen to what he says and we need to do
Speaker 1: these things because we've got some dogs that like to
Speaker 1: bark at people when they walk past. And I said,
Speaker 1: we're going to get that fixed. I said, we're gonna
Speaker 1: We're I've been paying attention. We know how to do this.
Speaker 1: We're going to do these things and then people in
Speaker 1: our neighborhood are going to go, how in the world
