Your hosts, Eric and Ted, sit down with Dustin Winn, Canine Trainer & Instructor, and go through Winn’s remarkable career.
Winn began his career in 1999 as a United States Marine Corps Working Dog Handler when he graduated from the 341st Training Squadron, Military Working Dog Handler Course in Lackland Air Force Base Texas. During his active duty career in the Marine Corps, Winn was deployed to “Ground Zero”, Saudi Arabia, and Afghanistan in support of the Global War on Terrorism and Operation Enduring Freedom. After his active duty service, Winn continued his career as a contracted canine trainer with private security companies tasked with the physical protection of U.S. dignitaries in the Middle East. In 2012, Winn left the Middle East and took a position as a Multi-Purpose Canine (MPC) Trainer with Naval Special Warfare (yeah, same place Eric worked ) where he served for two years before taking a position with the Department of Defense as an MPC Instructor. The Boys even chat about things they learned from the other units, and how MARSOC does it a little … differently. During the last 20 years, Winn has honed his dog training skills, and has developed a unique training style through experiences and lessons learned. His passion for dog training, and desire to create an unbreakable bond between dog and owner, is second to none.

Episode 140: The Smell with Sinead Imbaro

Your hosts, Eric and Ted, sit down with Sinead Imbaro to discuss two of her biggest passions: fitness training, and dog training.
Imbaro has worked as a K-9 police and military trainer for more than two decades. After moving from Canada to Florida, Imbaro became a personal trainer and manager at a gym. For the last seven years, a big part of her fitness inspiration has come from training her Malinois, Magnus. Magnus is trained in narcotics, and SAR, and the pair even competed on America’s Top Dog.
Imbaro and Magnus were recently involved in the Surfside SAR efforts down in Miami as well. This gut-wrenching episode is one you owe it to yourself, and to the survivors and victims of the collapse, to listen to.

Your WDR Hosts, Eric @vanessk9 & Ted @ted_summers, sat down with Leblanc (a returning guest) to talk all things American Tactical K9 Association(‘s upcoming!) Conference @american_tactical_k9_assn. This thing is going to be H U G E and will have Police K9 handlers working side-by-side with SOF handlers, and there’s an incredible list of instructors – there will definitely be something for everyone!
Leblanc grew up in the Army in the 2/75 Ranger Battalion, and made it to the highest levels of Army Special Operations (trust us when we say the man is a true badass). Leblanc handled 4 dogs in the GWOT. Leblanc founded his company, Direct Action K9, while still on active duty (so check out our earlier podcast to hear more from Leblanc!)
So sit down, listen up, and learn a thing or two from this training, and get hyped about this upcoming conference!

Episode 135: “My Crocs Stay in 4x” with Joshua ‘Strotnium’ David

Joshua’s story might be every kid’s dream: he was kicked out of high school, joined the U.S. Army, became a Ranger. Then went to Selection and became a Green Beret where he handled a MPC named Timo for two deployments. Joshua then tried out for the new Army eSports team. Out of 16,000 applicants, they took 16 for the team, and he was one of them. Joshua went from real life sniper, to professional video game sniper (yeah, think Halo, CoD, Rainbow Six Siege, Fortnite, League of Legends, live-streaming on Twitch…!), and he’s now headed back to USASOC. Tune in to this unique episode to hear about how Joshua uses live-streaming as outreach in today’s day and age. Neat stuff! And be sure to follow him at @strotnium
