In this episode, Steve sits down with Rachel and Marilyn, the force behind the Canine School of Trailing. We explore how two trainers with completely opposite backgrounds found common ground in the world of scent, leading to a partnership built on friendship, a little prosecco, and a very specific boundary line on the M6. This was so much fun!

In this episode, we "un-pact":

• From Penguins to Dolphins: Discover the vastly different origins of our guests—from leading zoo parades and tickling dolphin tongues to escaping the corporate banking world.
• The M6 Boundary: How these former "local rivals" ditched the scarcity mindset to create a unique partnership that split the UK right down the motorway.
• The Inclusive Sport: Why trailing is the ultimate "safe space" for reactive dogs and a non-judgmental community for handlers who usually feel shunned.
• Business & Boundaries: The raw reality of running a dog business, including the importance of saying "No" and how AI is reclaiming their admin time.
