I’m Brent Hartman, Founder and Lead Researcher of Poodle Report. After losing my Standard Poodle, Angus, my search for Brent Hartman | Lead Researcher & Founder Brent Hartman is the founder of Poodle Report and a dedicated student of canine cognition.

His work focuses on evidence-based protocols like the Metabolic Reset and the Independence Protocol, transforming the bond between humans and high-IQ dogs into true genius partnerships.
