Imprinting and Handling Puppies Birth to 10 Weeks

By |

Learn how to establish lifelong canine habits  by  imprinting, handling, and understanding time table developments in Puppies in this recorded webinar with Speaker: Sue Anne Wilson.   Every breeder has a serious responsibility to  each puppy they produce, and each owner they connect with,  to provide every canine a mentally strong, healthy beginning for a long and fulfilling life.

This important webinar is for anyone who has ever considered or plans to breed a litter of puppies. It demonstrates how to raise healthy, mentally and physically strong puppies by influencing their environment, handling, and attention from pre-birth to permanent home placement at 10-12 weeks of age. Students will learn a proven method of imprinting and handling puppies that affect a canine’s lifelong ability to learn, be trained, and produce a superior companion or competitor because of their exposure to stimuli from birth to 12 weeks.

Practical Ethology: Breeding Selection and Training Choices

By |

Chris and Batuque_In Defense of Handler
Speaker: Chris Redenbach, CABC, CBCC-KA
So how does a trainer or behaviorist use “ethology” in their work with dogs? This 90 minute presentation highlights how one breeder/trainer used classical ethological principles to aid in breeding selection for working traits as well as how she uses classical ethology in analyzing behavior and training issues and problem solving. Why does one dog go forward while another runs away? Why does one stock dog use body slams and upper body contact while another goes for the legs? Why did a dog suddenly start attacking long bodied, short legged dogs but not small long legged dogs? Why was the presenter upset when Europe banned ear cropping even though she didn’t like to crop ears? How does ethology apply to teaching the “stay” exercise? The discussion will be an informal introduction to how classical ethology pervades all we do with dogs.

Dingoes, the ‘missing link’ between wolves and domestic dogs?

By |

Dingoes and Wolves and Dogs

Speaker: Dr. Bradley Smith

Description:  The dingo, a wild living canid endemic to Australia is one of the world’s most controversial animals, and remains a source of significant contradiction. Dingoes and wolves and dogs: How are they similar, different, related? It is considered both a native animal and an invasive pest; a tourist draw card and a dangerous threat; devastating to the agricultural industry yet crucial for a healthy ecosystem; a baby killer and a beloved companion. Some suggest that dingoes are an example of a ‘proto’ dog- one of the earliest living forms of the domestic dog, but the dingoes past remains enigmatic. This presentation explores the fascinating and little known story of the dingo. With the dingo-human relationship as a central theme, it traces the intriguing journey of the dingo from its possible beginnings as a semi domesticated wild dog in Asia, to its current status as a wild animal under threat of extinction. During this time, the dingo has demonstrated an unparalleled intelligence and adaptable nature seen in few species. In this presentation, I will attempt to define what a dingo is, how it relates to other members of the Canid family in terms of genetics, physiology, cognition and behaviour. As one of the few remaining wild dogs left in the world, I argue how dingoes offer valuable insight into the domestication of wolves and the traditional human–canid relationship.le as a recording after the lecture.

Exploring Taboos

By |

Taboo Behaviors in Dogs

Speaker: Julie Hecht, MSc

Most dogs live in our homes as four-legged family members, but sometimes their behavior can be a jarring reminder that they are not humans, but canids with their own unique behavioral and sensory systems. In this colorful presentation, Julie Hecht, MSc presents scientific research into some of dogs’ seemingly taboo behaviors, such as humping and crotch-sniffing. Though these are normal behaviors from a dog’s perspective, they are, to us taboo behaviors in dogs. This presentation highlights the importance of assessing behavior from the dog’s perspective, as opposed to through the lens of human social norms and standards. Discussion will follow, moderated by Dr. Monique Udell.

Intentional Thinking in Animals: Can They Do It and Is It Necessary

Intentional Thinking in Animals: Can They Do It and Is It Necessary?
Recorded Live-October 3, 2012
Speaker: Ken McCort In this presentation, Ken McCort will explore the subject of Intentional Thinking in animals. Intentional thinking will be defined, exploring what it means in terms of behavior, as well as the levels involved in the process. We will then discuss how intentional thinking may lead to the ability of companion animals, especially dogs, to plot, plan, deceive and trick humans. This subject was first explored in the 1700′s and has been more recently revisited by philosopher Daniel Dennett Ph. D. in the late 1980′s. This cognitive process is very important to understand by anybody involved in handling and training animals of all species. A question and answer session will follow, moderated by Dr. Monique Udell.
