Welcome to the next episode of The Dog Real Talk!
My guest today is amazing Ryan Cartlidge, founder of Animal Training Academy (ATA). We talked about the convergence of animal training between species. Ryan is the the creator of a wonderful, most supportive and geeky Tribe you can find on the internet for animal trainers. Ryan provides amazing content for ATA members, doing podcasts, live classes to name just the few. If you are an animal trainer then you simply have to join the community he has created, I am myself proud member of ATA Tribe!

More about Ryan from his website:
"Hi, I’m Ryan, the founder of Animal Training Academy. For the past 11 years, I’ve been working as a professional animal trainer around the world, including in New Zealand, Australia, Canada and the US. I’ve trained teams, developed animal training programs, been published in leading industry magazines, spoken at international conferences and delivered presentations in a University on animal behavior
And through the Animal Training Academy, I connect hundreds of animal behavior & training enthusiasts with a large (and growing) library of lessons and tutorials delivered by renowned animal experts.
I’ve worked in many different zoos, across numerous countries in lots of different teams and with many different species. Working across different organizations I was consistently presented with opportunities to develop new animal training programs based on my experience.
After doing this for a decade I saw an opportunity to take what I was already doing and reach a much bigger audience, helping more trainers and animals. Animal Training Academy was born mid-2015."
