| Are your daily walks more like scavenger hunts for your dog? Food and garbage on the ground are often irresistible distractions for many dogs, but these distractions can result in an emergency vet visit. Teaching your dog to control his or her impulses through the "Leave It" behavior will help you keep your dog safe, no matter what "treasures" await! |

CTP of the Month: Samantha Milner |
|
|
| Samantha (Sam) Milner, KPA CTP, had heard about the Karen Pryor Academy (KPA) Dog Trainer Professional (DTP) program, but attending a seminar conducted by Ken Ramirez in the United Kingdom, where she lives, led her to investigate the program fully. Sam remembers that Ken incorporated DTP students' work in his talk, which intrigued her. While Sam had always been a clicker trainer with her dogs, the organization where she works as a Guide Dog Mobility Specialist, Guide Dogs UK, was looking to make clicker training their standard. "I wanted to level-up my understanding and practical skills," explains Sam. "The obvious choice was to attend KPA!" |
