DoggyDan Podcast: 5 Golden Rules Introduction – Becoming The Pack Leader

dog training to build a strong bond and better behavior.

Last Updated: December 2025

This is a really important podcast because it sets up WHY you need to become the Pack Leader in your home. This is the cornerstone of my training method and the cure for almost all behavioural issues. It also introduces my 5 Golden Rules that when put into place, will establish you as the Pack Leader.

Doggy Dan's Introduction to his 5 Golden Rules

You'll discover:

  • Why you need to become the Pack Leader
  • Why you think you may be the Pack Leader but in your dog's eyes you are not.
  • Who needs to become the Pack Leader
  • How becoming the Pack Leader is going to help you

Simple psychology

To understand a dog you really need to know where they're coming from. Learning the 5 Golden Rules will teach you the psychology of dogs. What they think, what they see, and how you fit into their lives – which is very different to how we think we fit into theirs.

Gentle journey for your puppy.
