This month we sneak in an extra podcast on the timely hot topic of the potential biting incidents with President Biden’s younger dog, Major. As of the posting of this (3/31/21), there have now been two incidents involving Major, and the media is all over whether Major is a bad dog, will be euthanized, will be trained out of the behavior, etc. Nevertheless, there is a paucity of information regarding the possible bites, and we use this information (or lack thereof) to frame the conversation around this and similar situations.

To help us with the conversation, we have special guests, Drs. Suzanne Hetts and Dan Estep, who are incredible leaders in the field of animal behavior. See: https://animalbehaviorassociates.com/about-us/
