PRODUCTION NOTES
Our goal is to produce a very high quality listening experience, using great equipment, editing software, and professionalism throughout each episode.
In post production, we do our best to remove all background noise, echo, in-breaths, lips smacks, um’s, long pauses, and other unwanted sounds.
“Puppy Talk is family oriented show, intended for all audiences, from a 6 year old child, to the adult owner of the puppy. Therefore, we try not to speak in technical dog trainer or behavior consultant terms, but for the novice puppy owner.”
ABOUT THE HOST
I am Dale Buchanan, the host and producer of Puppy Talk Podcast. I have over 35 years experience behind a microphone. My background in broadcasting started in the mid 1980’s when I founded my first company DB Sound Systems. From 1986-1995 I was the DJ and MC at over 500 wedding receptions and special events. I have been featured in People Magazine, The Washington Post, and numerous other national and local publications.
In 1990 I was the host of the radio show Last Call and TV show Music Talk in Falls Church, VA. During that time, I gained experience as an on-air host and producer for live broadcasts. During that time, I also hosted live outdoor music festivals and have been on stage speaking in front of thousands of people.
During the 1990’s I studied with some of the best professional vocal coaches in the world to perfect and preserve my voice. In addition I also took part in an improvisation acting group in Washington DC, making many live acting performances on stage.
Over the past 12 years, I have performed in over 5,000 videos for social media for various companies that I have owned.
Welcome to 2022! Starting this year, I combine my Dog Training experience from Top Gun Dog Training with 35 years of broadcast expertise to form the podcast Puppy Talk.
I have a CDTB and CDTK from Catch Canine Trainers Academy, along with numerous continuing education certifications. In 2020 I trained over 150 puppies ages 9-24 weeks old, and I also raised many puppies of my own since 2008.
