In this powerful and heartwarming episode of Found It, Fetched It, Jo sits down with LWDG Group Expert Claire Denyer to explore something that’s often overlooked but deeply impactful in our dog training journeys—our own emotional energy.

From giggles that accidentally reward bad habits to the subtle signs a dog gives when something just isn’t right, Jo and Claire unpack how much our mindset, mood, and even body language shape our dogs’ behaviour. With a mix of personal stories, expert insights, and more than a few “oh wow, I do that too” moments, they show how connection and calm always start with us.

You’ll hear:

• Why laughter can accidentally reinforce unwanted behaviours
• How energy affects everything from heelwork to recall
• What signs to look for when a dog’s trying to tell you something’s wrong
• The subtle shift from training at your dog to training with them
• How to reset your mindset when a session starts going sideways
• Why play isn't just fun—it’s emotional first aid
• 
  

Whether your dog’s doing zoomies mid-session or lying down instead of retrieving, this episode will leave you feeling more empowered, more in tune, and more aware of the power you hold in every interaction.

Because calm starts with you—and your dog is always watching.

Think dog breath is just part of the deal? Think again. In this eye-opening episode of Founded Fetch It, Jo sits down with canine dental expert Anastasia Waugh—aka the Dog Tooth Fairy—to talk all things teeth. From silent pain to stinky breath, and the often-overlooked dangers hiding in your dog’s mouth, Anastasia shares the truth about dental health, what’s fixable at home, and when it's time to call in the pros. We talk ultrasonic toothbrushes, teething tips for puppies, natural chews, and the one transformation story that’ll make you rethink skipping tooth care.

Whether your dog’s a raw-fed retriever or a kibble-crunching companion, this is your reminder: their teeth matter more than we realise.
