Description

Host and Canine Psychotherapist, Billie Groom, dives deep into the science and psychology behind Canine Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, a scientifically proven method proven to address behaviors leading to surrender, euthanasia and general frustration.  Are canine industry experts providing you with the most up-to-date information? Are you hearing the same advice over and over, saturated with gimmicks, and ineffective advice?  This podcast is a thought-provoking journey into the world of canine psychology and science and introduces the only psychotherapeutic method grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy proven effective with dogs over the age of six months. Renowned for her tenacity and candor, Billie refuses to put popularity over impact. Her dedication to spreading awareness of the life saving benefits of CCBT has earned her the reputation of industry disruptor and leader. Billie is the CEO and founder of the Institute of Canine Psychotherapy, the only recognized educational platform teaching Canine CBT. She is an award-winning author and was featured in Psychology Today Magazine by Marc Bekoff. She has appeared on many shows, including LA Tribune, IGNITE Your Essence, DVM 360, The Animal Innovations Show, and is a featured speaker at the Animal Behavior Society Conference, and the Animal Science and Veterinary Medicine Conference (2022/23/24). She completed the PhD program at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, "Cognition and Emotions to Improve Animal Welfare", and the course on Adolescent Brain Development. She is currently enrolled in the Transpersonal Ecology PhD program at the University of Sedona. She is honored to be a TedX speaker (2025) and to be a guest speaker at Hartpury University in their Animal Assisted Therapy Program (2025). Billie openly shares her experiences and knowledge, in a straight-forward and often humorous manner, acquired over three decades working with dogs, rescuers, fosters, adopters, and industry experts. She describes how dogs think, learn, process, and absorb our urban world, compared to that of puppies, and explains, without judgement, the inherent limitations of conventional training methods. Billie uses the most interesting and "relatable" examples to explain Canine Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CCBT) and how it is changing the landscape of canine behavioral rehabilitation and animal welfare on a local and global scale.  www.instituteofcaninepsychotherapy.com

"Sentience" - How Does Dog Training Impact Sentient Beings?
2025/04/29
Welcome!  (oops again on the music - my apologies!) The concept of "Sentience" seems simplistic - animals have emotions. Now what? Why is it important to us, as pet parents, dog professionals, and animal experts, to ensure dogs are treated as sentient beings?

"Treat Motivated" Dogs - What Does This REALLY Mean?
2025/02/25
Welcome! First off!  I apologize for the dead air space, I am using a different recording platform that apparently does not like my taste in music :-)  And, as you cat lovers can relate to, I had to attend to my cat's needs. :-)  This episode explores the term "Treat Motivated" referencing common scientific studies to determine what this really means and if the focus on treat motivation means the study is missing some very important information about our dogs! Secondly, I use the example of a client of a student in the CCBT Diploma Program at the Institute of Canine Psychotherapy to discuss the challenges in using Conditioning Methods with dogs that are not "treat motivated" And, finally, is "treat motivated" an advantage when adopting a dog? Be sure to check out www.instituteofcaninepsychotherapy.com for info!  Our students are making waves in the canine behavioral and welfare sectors!

Is Your Dog Trainer "Popular" or "Impactful"? Why 2025 is the year of the Pet Parent.
2024/12/31
Welcome to the final episode of 2024!   2025 is becoming the year to not simply demand more from industry leaders that have no interest in providing more, but rather, finding those solutions, stepping outside the comfort zone and putting one's own goals first!   Does this sound selfish?  Pet professionals cannot succeed in this industry by following mainstream, pleasing the industry, remaining loyal to leaders who are more concerned with their own success than that of dog trainers.  Continuing to divide the industry and blaming pet parents  drives away progress.  Pet parents, having an allegiance only to their dog, family, and community expect more from their trainers, and pet professionals need to provide the solutions.  When pet professionals empower themselves, they are better equipped to educate pet parents, and, in turn, the needs of dogs are met.   The launch of the Institute of Canine Psychotherapy is much more than the launching of a one-of-a-kind institute - it represents the movement toward positioning pet parents and forward-thinking, brave, dog trainers as leaders in the canine behavior and animal welfare realms. Empower Yourself to Make An Impact.   We invite you to research our courses, including our flagship diploma program.

Dog Anxiety - What we can learn from Human Anxiety.
2024/10/29
Welcome! Anxiety is not a singular behavioral condition, nor does it have a "tick the box" solution. In this episode, I explore Misophonia – a condition that creates a strong negative reaction when hearing triggering sounds. I am using this specific example to show the importance of studying "human" conditions leading to behaviors associated with anxiety. By studying the symptoms, causes, cures, and statistics of these conditions, we can advance our understanding of canine anxiety and how to effectively address the specific form of anxiety as it pertains to the individual dog.

My Childhood Story Revealed - Why I Do What I Do
2024/06/25
In late 2019, I was contacted by a man whose story completely changed my mindset and brought clarity (ah-ha moment that lasted years) of who I am and why I am so compelled to ensure all dogs are treated as individuals, with dignity and respect, and that people have access to the skills and tools to make previously traumatized and unwanted dogs feel comfortable, loved, understood, and welcome.  Close to this time, I was contacted by another man who enlightened me on my method, thus changing my professional direction and positioning. These two life and career changing events profoundly impacted me as a person and the influence of CCBT in the animal welfare industry.  These stories have only been revealed twice - embedded into other shows, and never as stories unto themselves and on this level. These stories continue to impact me, as I continue to absorb and process the information.  I appreciate your interest and genuine desire to help animals.  As always, please reach out with any questions or concerns, and, if you like the episode, please share and/or provide a rating and review.

Why Analyzing Behaviors is Important!
2024/04/30
Welcome to Dog Training DisrUPted.  Do you get overwhelmed by the amount of conflicting suggestions and advise?  You are not alone!  Surprisingly, many of those approaches may be effective, and many ineffective - why?  Many methods assess behaviors and then implement solutions to address the behavior. CCBT analyzes the situation, determining the reason for the dog's behaivor, based on the goal and thought processes.  This episode explores one situation (a dog growling) in four different scenerios,  Based on the information we gather, we can determine the reason for the behavior - which is different in each situation, which is important in determining the platform exercises we develop.   Put on your thinking cap, or perhaps your detective cap, and join me on a journey in dissecting dog behavior.  More fun than it sounds!

Dog Anxiety! Can Emotional Replacement Therapy Help Dogs?
2024/02/28
Dog anxiety often leads to behaviors that results in frustration for pet parents, leading to surrender or euthanasia. There are a plethora of approaches to address it, so how do you choose the best one for you and your dog?   Anxiety is an emotion, not a behavior.  It is essential to apply a method that acknowledges emotions, taking an approach whereby we do not suppress the emotion, but rather, provides skills to regulate, process, and replace "harmful" emotions with positive ones.  In this episode, I introduce Emotional Replacement Therapy. I address common changes that occur as we work our way through the program, and discuss "coping mechanisms" and "impulse control" My TEDX Talk is live!

Puppy Training! Can they think "cognitively"?
2023/12/26
I recently took two puppies in off a reserve and here is what I learned!   By understating puppy training and braining , we can better understand how different methods are effective at different stages. Meet Jonesy and Jackson, 3 month old puppies who are very different from each other. How are methods adapted? Why is it important to view training as bonding and harnessing cognitive skills, as opposed to "tick the boxes".   Referencing specific examples with these pups,  this episode explores operant conditioning and Canine CBT.  Find all the episodes on Feedspot, where Dog Training DisrUPted is rated in the top 5 shows in the dog category in Canada: https://blog.feedspot.com/canadian_dog_podcasts/ To become a certified Canine CBT Psychotherapist, and for courses on related topics, please visit the Institute of Canine Psychotherapy. www.instituteofcaninepsychotherapy.com Become a Certified Canine Behaviorist and Dog Trainer My Linktree with all my media, presentations, shows, articles Billie Groom - UPWARD Dogology | Instagram, Facebook | Linktree Here is the link to the recent article in Psychology Today Mag by Marc Bekoff on Canine CBT Dog Training: Perception, Cognition, and Emotions | Psychology Today Buy My Book!

The Connection Between the Canine-Guardian Bond and Dog Behavior
2023/10/31
In this episode, I read my scientific paper from my PhD course (Cognition, Emotion to Improve Animal Welfare - Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences). No scientific knowledge or prep required. I discuss canine enrichment, street dogs, adolescent dogs, and the guardian-canine bond to bring to light the benefits of human-based approaches, such as Flow, Cognitive Enrichment, and CBT meet the needs of pet parents and dogs.  ABSTRACT - "The aim of this paper is to highlight the connection between cognitive processes, affected states (primarily in relation to the guardian-canine bond), and behavior to explore the effects of these factors on the welfare of domestic dogs. I begin by presenting the proven benefits, as well as the limitations, of enrichment activities and training programs. I discuss the importance of stimulating cognitive functions and establishing the guardian-canine bond to prevent and address behaviors leading to surrender, euthanasia, and the implementation of aversive measures, and refer to studies to highlight the benefits of further research into factors affecting behavior. I then move beyond enrichment and the discussion of positive verses negative conditioning methods to introduce strategies borrowed from the human world to heighten cognitive stimulation, enhance bonding, and address behavioral issues as potential suggestions for future exploration to improve the welfare of domestic dogs."

Canine Aggression and Anxiety - How Cognitive Dissonance Affects Dog Behavior
2023/08/29
Dog behaviors associated with aggression and anxiety are caused by many factors, of which cognitive dissonance is rarely discussed, yet has a profound impact, in particular with adolescent and adult dogs, while, perhaps surprisingly, upbringing is not a differentiating factor. This episode covers what it is, common signs/behaviors including examples, what NOT to do - and most importantly, why, and why CCBT is so effective in addressing behaviors stemming from cognitive dissonance. As always, I appreciate your support, questions, feedback. Please feel free to share to help other professionals, pet parents and dogs. If your dog is reactive, nervous, fearful, experiencing change in behavior, or acting unpredictable, I recommend this episode as a starting place.  Links mentioned in episode.

Comparing Humans and Dogs in Applying Cognitive Behavioral Therapy
2023/06/27
David Roberts, Licensed Master Social Worker, is an expert in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and has extensive personal experience, claiming "it played a major role in saving my life after my daughter died at the age of 18."  Dave and I dive deep into what CBT is and use comparative examples in human and dog behavior and rehabilitation. We discuss the role of mindset, perception, habits, and cognitive appraisal in making decisions. We discuss the difference between CBT and Counter Conditioning, and why CBT is so effective with dogs in different life stages, as with humans. We discuss the benefits of methods not requiring the stimuli to be present or relying on rewards. This episode is sure to inspire, allowing you to see your dog's behavior in a new light.
