EVENT SUMMARY:
Barking, growling, snarling, lunging and biting. They are the
behaviors that worry shelter and rescue people the most. For veterinary staff and trainers they are the behaviors of tough cases. For people who live with dogs, they are often the behaviors that break relationships. Fortunately we know more now than ever about the early signs of potential aggressive behavior in dogs, and how to use the science of behavior to affect clear and lasting change.
Dr. Sophia Yin, DVM, MS learned early on in her veterinary career the high stakes for dogs labeled as aggressive or dangerous. When she realized more dogs were being euthanized for behavior problems than for medical issues, she dedicated herself to finding solutions. Now she’s focused on teaching the art and science of animal behavior. (Read more about veterinarian and animal behaviorist Dr. Sophia Yin).
Join Dr. Yin for a lively and riveting day of learning and problem solving.
· The two-step process for changing most behavior problems.
· Recognizing fear and imminent aggression.
· Rapid reversal of fear and aggression.
· Teaching dogs to Learn to Earn – the fun, quick and safe alternative to the alfa roll.
· Many faces of fear and aggression (case studies).
Dr. Yin teaches with a clear straightforward approach incorporating lecture, discussion, and video. The information is detailed, but still accessible and applicable to real-life. This seminar is specifically designed for trainers, behavior consultants, veterinarians and veterinary staff as well as shelter and rescue staff and volunteers.
