SUMMARY:Click to Calm for Canine Confidence with Emma Parsons
DESCRIPTION:The purpose of this seminar is to teach dogs to focus on their handlers in high distraction environments. These exercises will be perfect for the competition dog and handler team. \nWe will begin by reviewing the new Click to Calm protocol (the presence of the trigger IS the cue to look at the handler) as well as work on necessary Foundation Behaviors such as the Back Up Sit\, Get Behind and Re-orienting. We will also explore the role eye contact plays when building certain behaviors. \nFaulty behavior chains will also be explored: how the handler thinks they are helping the dog\, while in fact\, it is creating more destructive behavior. \nFun games will be played towards teaching specific skills like acclimating dogs to the movement of other dogs\, (Parallel Jumping or Heeling) navigating small spaces in public areas safely (Follow the Leader) and teaching dogs to better tolerate the “head to head” movement towards other dogs. (Musical Chairs or Magical Hoops) Novel stimuli will be used to add complexity to the exercises. \nCEUs pending. \nSaturday\, June 10th & Sunday\, June 11th\n9AM to 4PM \nWorking Spot: $375 + tax\, limit 8.
