So for those, um, you know, whether they're, uh, Aussie or they're, uh, you know, we've got a lot of quadri- li- listeners in, uh, the USA, UK, around the world, um, can you tell us a little bit about, I suppose, let's start with your, um, your dog training, um, business and a little bit about you there.

We did, we, as I just said, we did the National Dog Trainers Federation course, I think it was about 2007.

Like, you know, we kind of finished the course and, uh, she had a dog grooming business, which we still have now, um, and was doing some sort of private consults.

But Cat was along the lines of like, "I wanna get sort of some accreditation and learn a little bit more." And then I was doing the NDTF course because I'm like, "Well, if I do the course, then I can go and work at customs, or then I can go and work basically any job I want working with dogs," right? That was my mindset.

And I'm pretty sure that's what got sold to me, too, to be honest with you, Daniel.

Um, but what we found was, like for where we were and what we wanted to do, uh, there was a market for, you know, private group classes or private consults, group classes and that sort of thing.

So that was kind of what we started to do and, um, found ourselves, you know, pretty quickly getting really busy, and, and everything still is, is busy 20 years later, mate.
