Welcome to ”Dog Training Bytes” – the show where canine professionals share their key takeaways, big a-ha moments, and hardest lessons learned from working with dogs.

On today’s episode, for the Season One Finale, Mattison is speaking with Zach Skow!

Zach’s story begins not as a dog trainer, but as a human who saw his life slipping away from fatal liver disease at the age of 28. Through a power I’m very familiar with, Zach’s dogs gave him a reason to live and to start fighting for something greater. In 2009, Marley’s Mutts was born, a rescue with a focus on community outreach through their brilliant and transformative program, Pawsitive Change. The Pawsitive Change program brings together dog rescue and incarceration through a powerful business model that provides endless benefits to multiple areas of our community. Prison inmates receive life-changing and recidivism-ending skills as dog trainers, and rescue dogs avoid euthanasia in over-crowded shelters while they learn the skills that can help them successfully transition to THEIR new life.

You can connect with Zach on Instagram and Facebook, and through his rescue Marley’s Mutts and the Pawsitive Change Program.
