Learning Styles of Dogs-Ethology and Canine Behavior Lecture

By |


Speaker: Rachel Friedman, MSW, LISW 

Description: Many know about the different learning styles of people. In this lecture, learn about the Learning Styles of Dogs. Then how to use that knowledge in providing practical and reality based applications in dog training  –  regardless of age, breed or gender.

Excerpt-

Dog Learning Style 1 – Initial Input Conflict
(by far most common)
This type of dog has a trouble just taking in information to learn the very beginning of a behavior.  Acts out (“I can do this, I can do this”) or shuts down (contemplative). This learning style manifests in frustration for many owners. Dogs with poor impulse control often have owners who mirror that by repeating repeating repeating, then forcing. This often results in fallout, usually in some form of anxiety.

Cost: $25.00

Developing Self-Control in Dogs with Behavioral Issues-Ethology and Canine Behavior Lecture

By |

Dog Self Control

Speaker: Dee Ganley, CBCC-KA, CPDT-KA, CABC

Description: Dee Ganley, author of “Changing People, Changing Dogs” covers several practical methods of teaching dogs to achieve self control. This 90 minute lecture is jam-packed with information and video demonstrations that will have you and your dog, or your clients and their dogs, on their way to a happy and satisfying relationship. You will learn how to take your dog on calm and enjoyable leash walks, control exits from the house or car, be off leash in dog parks and much more. Dog self control is critical for a happy and peaceful relationship with your dog. Your dog will be happier and so will you! There are several “how to”  handouts for you with this webinar.

Excerpt-

What is the opposite of self-control? OUT-OF-CONTROL!!! Being out-of-control is what
brings almost all of the dogs to us. Obedience behavior by itself does not teach selfcontrol.
We start with the absolute basics. We use what the dog wants and show him how
to “manipulate” us to get it.
· To go through a door, the door will not open unless the dog backs up.
· To get attention and treats at the door, the dog has to put his butt on the ground.
· To go for a walk, the dog has to wear a gentle leader or sensation-harness and not
pull while out walking.
These are not obedience behaviors. They are self-control behaviors – but they are what
99% of the pet owning public desperately wants from their pets.

By |

Solutions and Strategies for Aggressive Behavior in Dogs

Speaker: Ken McCort , CPDT-KA

Description: Ken McCort presents information about solutions and strategies to address aggressive behavior in dogs. He discusses the comparative definitions of types of canine aggression, as well as strategies and solutions for working with aggressive dogs.  He uses photo illustrations allowing participants to learn to differentiate between the body language signals of these differing types of aggression. Ken discusses the importance of management and different ways to manage dogs exhibiting aggressive behavior. He explains what counter-conditioning is and how to apply it in aggressive dog cases. Sometimes the best way to work with aggression in dogs is to actually put the aggressive behavior “on cue.” Ken has years of experience as a behavior consultant who has worked with many aggression cases. Please join us in this very popular webinar.

Excerpt-

Management

  • Stop dog from practicing the behavior
  • Tether, leash, gate, crate, muzzle
  • Tiered system – A, B, C, D
  • Should be able to fade out over time if desirable behavior is demonstrated

Counter Conditioning (Operant)

  • DRO (other) *
  • DRI (incompatible) *
  • DRA (alternative) *
  • DRL (lower level) *

Differentiating Between Fearful and Submissive Behavior in Canines

By |

Fearful and Submissive Dog Behavior

Speakers: Monty Sloan and Monique Udell, PhD

Description: Do you know how to recognize when your dog is exhibiting fearful behavior? Can you recognize the difference between fear and submission? Why would this be important to know?

Monty Sloan and Dr. Udell present information about the comparative definitions of fear and submission. Beautiful photo illustrations allow participants to learn to differentiate between the body language signals of these differing emotional states in wolves and dogs that are exhibiting fearful and submissive dog behavior. It is often important to know the difference between fear and submission and when submission may be resulting from fear. There are many different ways a dog can show fear and/or submission. Fear and submission are also linked. Learn the different contributing factors to fearful and submissive behavior in dogs: how genetics, socialization periods, personality and epigenetics all contribute to fearful and submissive dog behavior. Dogs and wolves have different socialization periods that are critical to normal development for each. This webinar also covers some of the ways we can help our dog with fears. As usual, Monty’s presentations are visually stunning, lively and very informative.
