What Dogs Want, Mat Ward - a podcast by RNZ

Taranaki-based clinical animal behaviourist Mat Ward specialises in positive reinforcement training, for new pups and throughout their life. It's never too late to teach an old dog a new trick, says Mat, who has even taught a dog to fly a plane. His new book is What Dogs Want, illustrated by Rupert Fawcett. Mat tells Kathryn here he explores the key needs of the animal - and owner - and what might be contributing to bad behaviour.
