The minimum standard of a dog trainer is a talking point we had with our friend, Jo Rosie Heffenden. The topic around being a trainer and standards gets brought up a lot in conversations.

The reason being is that there are so many trainers who do not have any certifications and in some cases, no real training at all.

So how can you be a dog trainer with no qualifications with such a huge responsibility? The answer is easy. Nobody seems to care much.
