4/01/2014: Seminar: Last weekend I attended a two-day seminar by Connie Cleveland, one of the country's leading obedience dog trainers. The seminar was titled "Dogs Are Problem Solvers". Here's a link to her home page: http://www.dogtrainersworkshop.com/; you'll find valuable information there.
I will be using Connie's method and techniques as best I can throughout Trey's training, and am grateful to her for her materials and the experience of the workshop. Connie gave me a "sneak peak" at her new training material for puppies, and most of what you see on these early videos is taken directly from that material; I'm not experienced enough to make any of this up!
