Diving Into the Decades: An Enlightening Chat with Ken McCort

The Bitey End of the Dog

This is a fascinating discussion that dives into everything from dogs to coyotes; from selective breeding to feral dog populations; from social facilitation to intentional thinking --- a jam packed episode! Join us for a compelling chat with my longtime friend and esteemed colleague, Ken McCort, a luminary in animal training since 1979. Together, we share our journeys through the early days of animal training and reminisce about unforgettable moments from conferences. Ken's illustrious career, notably his exceptional work with wolves and contributions to veterinary education, provides invaluable insights into the complex world of animal behavior.
About Ken:
Ken is a professional animal trainer and behavior consult that has been working with multiple species since 1979. With an education in psychology, ethology and neurobiology, he strives to understand animal behavior based on the niche that the animals live in. He looks at modification of unwanted behaviors and modification for desired behaviors using all three sciences.

As the receiver of the 2020 Association of Professional Dog Trainers Lifetime Achievement Award as well as many other international recognitions, he thrives to teach people the animal’s perspective. Having taught people and trained animals in many countries around the world, Ken strives to get other trainers and pet people to embrace science as the modality for change.
