Unraveling the Puzzle of Behavior, Training and Performance.” Clothier will highlight practical and powerful methods of understanding behavior, training or performance problems, and will help owners identify areas needing attention, recognize effective training methods, and understand their dog as a physical, emotional and mental being.
Clothier teaches with humor, scientific knowledge and a deep passion for dogs, emphasizing relationship-centered training principles and combined with her lifetime of experience raising dogs and helping others do the same.
