APDT Conference!

Well I'm heading out early tomorrow morning for the Association of Pet Dog Trainers annual conference in Denver, Colorado. Every year the APDT brings together top trainers and behaviorist in the field of dog training for 5 days of continuing ed. for those in the field. Every year I come back with exciting new methods and information to pass on to students. We are very lucky to be training dogs in such an enlightened era. Positive reinforcement techniques have enabled us to not only communicate with our dogs much more effectively, showing us how truly capable these animals are but in a way that encourages a strong bond and relationship like no other, between 2 animals of different species, working together as a team.

I haven't even left yet and I'm already excited about getting back and showing you all that I'll learn!

See you all next week!
