About this episode
We are joined by the NAVHDA judging coordinator Mark Whalen this week. Mark has a lot of time and experience within NAVHDA and offers a unique insight to testing and training. Give it a listen for some quick training and testing tips, some of the more common questions such as Desire vs. Cooperation vs. Obedience, and a few fun stories in between!
