My new podcast episode is live!

There is a lot of controversy still around which is the right way to play with your dog and even more when it comes to Border Collies!
I wanted to do a podcast episode to explain why I play and teach play the way I do that will be followed by a YouTube video too.

This podcast episode is also a great way to announce a very exciting collaboration! I have teamed up with Tug-E-Nuff to bring to my podcast listeners a bundle of my favourite toys! In the episode I explain why I choose these specific toys and how I use them!

Let me know in the comments how you play with your Border Collie and if you have any more questions about it don’t hesitate to ask!

Hello, my name is Martina Miradoli and I specialise in training Border Collies.

I’ve owned Border Collies for many years and have trained them, along with other herding breeds in every sport and activity available.

This has allowed me to gain invaluable experience and an understanding of these unique dogs and the behavioural challenges that we may have to face as owners.
