This
exciting weekend with Steve and Jen White turns high performance training on
its head to help you, the dog owner or trainer.
You'll learn a simple,
systematic way to teach yourself how to read any dog's body language.
You'll
learn how stimuli trigger behavior and how to control them to keep a lid on
problems. By practicing with video clips and live dogs, you'll see the value of "thin-slicing" the information dogs and their people give you.
Peak
performance is not so much about the stuff a dog knows nearly as it is about the
relationship between dog and human. Steve and Jen show you how to build a
joyful relationship with your dog.
You'll learn how new scientific discoveries
bolster what great trainers have always done and at the same time smash myths
and old wives' tales. You'll find out how to make anticipation your ally
instead of your enemy. You'll learn proven strategies for banishing ring nerves
and other forms of performance jitters. You'll see how to mingle science and
technique to produce an artfully trained dog that is a joy to live with.
