Is your dog’s behaviour shaped by its breed and genetics—or by how it's raised? In this episode of The Dog People Podcast, professional dog trainer Max O’Neil dives deep into the age-old debate of nature vs nurture in dogs, breaking down how much of your dog’s personality and behaviour is inherited versus influenced by environment, training, and lifestyle.
Max shares real-world examples from years of training dogs across all breeds, explains why understanding your dog’s natural instincts is just as important as the way you raise them, and offers practical tips for shaping balanced behaviour. Whether you're raising a new puppy, struggling with a rescue dog, or curious about the role of breeding and early socialisation, this episode gives you the tools to better understand what really drives your dog’s behaviour.
