Dogs and Kat is excited to present a 2 day seminar with the co-creator of
Bond-Based Choice Teaching -
Judy Luther.
See and learn about our dogs' amazing cognitive abilities as well as this innovative and game-changing teaching approach in action from one of its creators. Judy Luther is the co-creator of Bond-Based Choice Teaching - an entirely new philosophy based on social learning and canine cognition in which we build strong relationships with our dogs through bond-building exercises. Secure bonds enable dogs to learn quickly and willingly, resulting in more reliable and confident dogs and happier owners. Bond-Based Choice Teaching helps build great relationships based on mutual respect, trust, understanding and care. Bond-Based Choice Teaching is easy, fast, effective and fun for both people and dogs. Learn the science behind BBCT and how to apply the techniques in your own work with dogs either professionally or simply in your home with your pets. This seminar is for trainers, veterinary professionals, service dog trainers, pet parents, rescues, shelters, and anyone with a love of dogs.
