Glenn Cooke is a veteran of the working canine world in Australia.
His early impressions in the training world left him insatiably curious and thirsty for knowledge, which he continues to this day which means Glenn presents as an extremely technical, capable and knowledgeable trainer.
He worked the streets of Melbourne in the late 80s and 90s with violence all around him as a Security K9 handler, so he is no stranger to the dark side of what the canine world can encounter in their daily duties.
We delve into his personal journey not only in the dog world but his earliest influences in the family home which has significantly shaped who Glenn is today.
Glenn is also a co-host of The Canine Paradigm alongside Pat Stuart, a podcast dedicated to the working canine world.
He was an absolute pleasure to chat with and someone that we will definitely be associating with more.

Paul Warren is a former Australian Infantry soldier who was deployed to and subsequently wounded in Afghanistan in 2009.
He joined the Army relatively late at 27 years old after a professional fighting career in an effort to serve something greater than himself.
After the blast that took his leg and killed his friend Pte Benjamin Ranaudo, he has dedicated his life to serving others by sharing his story and imparting a lifetime of wisdom and rich experiences, especially to young fighters.
He is not for the faint of heart, Paul is a no bullshit bloke who wants others to achieve their goals and never succumb to the victim mentality that he could so easily have adopted, but never did.

John Devine is a former US Navy SEAL, the US Navy’s special forces direct action unit.
John has multiple deployments to warzones both in a direct combat capability as well as advising host nation forces in their fight against terrorism.
After his first deployment John was trained as a K9 handler where he went on to complete more deployments to Afghanistan against the Taliban.
He speculated that he and his dog found one of, if not the, largest explosive caches of the entire GWOT. Not something to sniff at!
He now runs Devine K9s where he focuses on protection dogs for private individuals as well as training service dogs for Veterans as part of the Rescue 22 Foundation to save veterans from suicide.
Despite his huge accomplishments and substantial experience, John is extremely humble and interesting to speak to and his passion for what he does is extremely evident.

She has been in the sport since her mid teens and has won multiple world titles competing against the best in the industry, including Ivan Balanaov.

Benny Olson was a Direct Support K9 handler for the Tier 1 Navy SEAL team, the Naval Special Warfare Development Group. He deployed multiple times to Iraq and Afghanistan during the GWOT with various K9s on direct action missions. Most of his deployments occurred AFTER he was blown up on a target in Iraq that killed another of his comrades and left him severely injured. His physical and mental recovery are nothing short of remarkable and his tenacity to get back into the fight shows the true dedication of a warrior, which Benny surely is.

Mike Jones is a man who has overcome adversity, time and time again.
We talk about his early life and the influences of growing up in East San Hose and how brushes with the law saw him self reflect and turn him into the man he is today.
He has shown his worth in the K9 industry repeatedly both in his pet training, decoy work and his new mission 'The Fight' to help survivors of human trafficking in their recovery.
We thoroughly enjoyed recording this and we know you'll love listening!
