  • AI Has No Excuses | The Future of Dog Breeding, Marketing & Education is Here
    2 Jul 2026

    Artificial Intelligence isn't coming to the dog world—it's already here.

    In this episode of Outside the Kennel, we break down how AI is changing everything from breeding decisions and pedigree research to marketing, puppy sales, customer communication, and content creation.

    More importantly, we tackle the mindset that's holding so many people back.

    "I don't know how." "I don't have time." "I'm too old to learn it."

    Those excuses don't work anymore.

    AI doesn't replace good breeders—it amplifies them. The breeders willing to learn these tools today will build stronger programs, create better content, educate buyers more effectively, and spend less time doing repetitive work.

    Whether you're raising French Bulldogs, English Bulldogs, XL Bullies, American Bullies, Mini Aussies, or any other breed, this episode is about staying ahead instead of getting left behind.

    No hype. No gatekeeping. Just real conversation about where the dog game is headed.

    Topics Covered:

    • Why AI is changing the breeding world
    • The biggest myths about artificial intelligence
    • Using AI for kennel marketing
    • Social media content in minutes instead of hours
    • Health, DNA, and pedigree education
    • Customer communication and puppy sales
    • Podcast production and video creation
    • Why adapting matters more than ever
    • How to use AI as a tool—not a crutch

    If you're serious about improving your program, this is an episode you don't want to miss.

    Outside the Kennel No Gatekeeping. Just Real Game.

  • Practice What You Preach: Do Breeders Believe Their Own Advice?
    22 Jun 2026

    In this episode of Outside the Kennel, we tackle a question that affects every breeder, stud owner, and kennel owner in the game:

    Do breeders actually follow the advice they give everyone else?

    We're not calling out individuals. We're examining the bigger picture and looking at the contradictions that exist throughout the dog community. Breeders often tell others to know their value, stand on quality, build demand, and treat their kennel like a business. But when the market gets tough, do those same principles still apply?

    We break down stud fee price wars, supply and demand, marketing, branding, market conditions, and why some breeders abandon their own business advice when sales slow down.

    This isn't about attacking people. It's about asking a simple question:

    If the advice is good enough to give, is it good enough to follow?
