Seminar Highlights
Barking Up the Right Tree: Unleashing Effective Training Methods
Discover the secrets behind successful dog training. Ian Dunbar, a world-renowned expert, will guide you through the quickest and most effective ways to teach verbally-cued responses, increase and maintain cue reliability, resulting in reduced 'misbehaviour' – ethical, simple, fast, and powerful methods that will transform your training skills and those of your clients.
Peace in the Pack: Navigating Canine Social Hierarchies
Ever wondered how to maintain harmony in a multi-dog household? Ian Dunbar unravels the complexities of group dynamics. Learn how to foster cooperation, prevent conflicts, and create a balanced pack. True 'top dogs' are cool & confident and seldom threaten or fight, they don't need to. This seminar explores 10 years of research into sex differences, social rank, and dog-dog aggression. Whether you have one dog or a whole group, this seminar is your roadmap to creating a healthy group dynamic.
Resolving Dog-Dog Reactivity: The Missing Parts of the Puzzle (with video demos)
In this seminar Dunbar dives into the psychology of dog-dog reactivity. When dogs are reactive, owners often feel helpless because they feel there is nothing they can do to change or stop the other dog's behaviour. But there is, and they can. This seminar delves into assessing bite history, selecting the best training method for the individual dog, how classical and operant conditioning can work together, turning toys into mega reinforcers, teaching dogs to become less threatening to others, and preventing reactivity appearing in the first place. Attendees will discover practical strategies to transform reactive responses into more desirable behaviours.
