The Dog Trainer’s Thoughtbook is a podcast hosted by dog trainer John Clawson, who aims to educate the public about various topics about dog training, owner education, and more.
In this powerful debut solo episode, John dives into one of the most critical — and often overlooked — aspects of dog ownership: safely integrating children and dogs.
Whether you’re thinking of adding a new puppy or rescue to your family, preparing for a baby on the way, or navigating the chaos of toddlers and tail wags, this episode is packed with practical advice to help you create a safe, respectful, and balanced home environment.
Inside this episode:
- Tips for families introducing a new dog (puppy or rescue) into a home with kids
- How to prepare your current dog for the arrival of a baby or child
- Boundaries, routines, and why supervision isn’t optional
- Red flags to watch for (and what to do about them)
- The mindset shift every parent-dog owner needs to make
John brings real-world experience and no-nonsense insight to a topic that can truly be life-changing — or, if handled poorly, dangerous. This episode sets the tone for thoughtful, preventative dog parenting with your entire family in mind.
Let’s raise dogs and kids that respect each other — and thrive together.
