Signing Up For Class In order to secure your place in class please book online One-Hour Clinics Free Zoom Presentation: Prey Drive - 1 Hour While dogs have been human companions for thousands of years, adjusting their behaviors to fit our world, each dog still retains some degree of prey drive. While some dogs seem uninterested in other critters, other dogs can become obsessed with any number of moving triggers: small (or not!) furry animals, running deer, blowing leaves, and passing cars or bicycles can all draw your dog's attention. Once a dog is locked onto a trigger, it can be very hard to get their attention back. Greg will discuss the scientific basis of prey drive and then share management and training methods to combat the allure of those moving things and creatures. Free Zoom: Prey Drive Distracted Dog - 1 Hour If you like the idea of nice leash walking, a good recall, and a dog that listens, the foundation skill you need to be successful, are attention and focus. Stop struggling through the training of basic skills and let's help you work on your connection with your dog. A dog that is at the end of a leash pulling toward other dogs, people, or distractions, is not paying attention or listening and is not capable of learning. This class will help you create a connection that will then help you be more successful in your other classes and in your training at home. In this one-night class Robin Crocker, Telling Tails owner and long-time service dog trainer, will give you the techniques you need to work on having more focus from your dog. When appropriate for the dogs level of progress, we will work on attention around increasingly more difficult distractions.
