About this Podcast:

The Positive Belgian Podcast is your go-to place for understanding, training, and living harmoniously with the brilliant, sensitive, occasionally dramatic Belgian Shepherd. Hosted by Belgian Shepherd Specialist and behaviour consultant Natasja Lewis, this podcast blends expert training advice with real-life stories, practical guidance, and plenty of breed-specific insight. Whether you share your life with a Malinois, Tervueren, Groenendael, or Laekenois, you’ll learn how to build focus, confidence, engagement, and calm using positive, reward-based training methods that actually work for high-drive, high-sensitivity dogs. Each episode dives into topics like raising a Belgian puppy, navigating the teenage tornado phase, preventing reactivity, managing high arousal, building brilliant recalls, and understanding what makes Belgians tick. It’s equal parts education, empathy, humour, and “oh thank goodness, it’s not just my dog!” N
