However, when dogs learn to tolerate handling and husbandry procedures when they are young, they grow up to become active and willing participants in these experiences. In this video, KPA CTP Erin Britton is teaching her puppy, Dill, to be comfortable having his ears and mouth examined. | | | A Dog Trainer's Guide to Best Practices | | | | It's a great time to be a dog trainer!

Off-leash walks and hikes let you spend quality time together in nature and provide exercise, stimulation, and enrichment for your dog. But how do you keep your dog's attention in the spring and summer when there are so many exciting new scents emerging? One way to help your dog pay attention to you is to teach the habit of "checking in." In this video, KPA CTP Sarah Kaechele practices the "check-in" behavior on a quiet trail. | | | CTP of the Month: Dan Tower Anderson, KPA CTP | | | | Dan Tower Anderson, KPA CTP, who generally goes by Tower, is a crossover trainer.
