Understanding your Dog's Drives Workshops
Over the years Brian has helped thousands of owners and their dogs and has built an international reputation as one of the foremost dog behaviorists in North America and Europe. His approach centres on an understanding of the instinctive drives that determine dogs’ behavior, and for the first time he is featuring his methods and techniques in a Workshop focusing on Drives and how you can use them to resolve behavior issues.
Understanding Your Dog’s Drives Workshop is a unique opportunity to work alongside Brian in a small group. Numbers are being kept low in order to give dogs and their owners the opportunity to work individually with Brian on training issues and questions. Students without dogs will have the benefit of being able to observe a range of dog behaviour issues and learn from them.
You will learn about dogs’ instinctive drives, and be able to identify the drives that are determining their behavior, and the techniques needed to resolve and re-direct those drives. Students will work directly with Brian and also in a group context so as to share concerns and experiences and provide feedback across the group.
Whatever your background this workshop will equip you with skills to understand and identify behavior problems, not just with your own dog but with any dog you may come into contact with, whether as a dog trainer, owner, rescue worker, volunteer or fosterer.
