Second Chances for Inmates and Dogs: A Story of Transformation and Hope with Mattison Simpson
Ever wondered how structured routines and dog training can transform lives? Join us in this enlightening episode as we welcome Mattison Simpson, a certified dog trainer and behavior consultant who found her true calling during a five-year prison sentence. Mattison shares her incredible journey from being overwhelmed by prison conditions to finding purpose through rehabilitating retired greyhound racing dogs and participating in honor dorm programs. Her story paints a vivid picture of how these programs provide inmates and dogs with a second chance and the profound emotional bonds formed through this work.
We also dive into Mattison's shift from balanced training methods to reward-based strategies, influenced by significant mentors and her evolving understanding of natural consequences in behavior modification. Learn about the broader impact of prison dog programs, including reduced recidivism rates and alleviated overcrowded shelters. Mattison emphasizes the importance of empathy, accountability, and second chances, not only for the inmates and dogs but also in her rebranded dog training business.
