In this special travel edition of From Woof to Wow, Josh takes us all the way to Beijing, where he dives headfirst into a completely different dog training culture. From luxurious pet resorts and structured “board and train” programs to certified trainers and mandatory obedience routines, Josh explores what sets Eastern training apart from Western approaches — and what both sides could learn from each other.

He compares Montreal’s owner-centric “coach-style” training to China’s intensive, trainer-led model — where dogs may spend months in full-time boarding schools. Josh unpacks the pros and cons of each system, from relationship-building and consistency to discipline, structure, and socialization, while sharing his first-hand experiences visiting top Beijing pet resorts like Noble Pet Resort.

Tune in for a raw, eye-opening reflection on how culture shapes our connection with dogs — and what it really means to raise a well-trained companion, no matter where you live.
