Summer School
While my teaching (human kids) days are coming to an end for summer, I am just beginning something I have been wanting to do for a long long time! I have just signed up to take Karen Pryor's online "dog trainer foundations" course. I am super excited! It is all positive reinforcement based using clickers. It also includes teachings on how to better understand and interpret dog emotional signals and behaviors. The whole course will take 12 weeks or less. My summer vacation is the perfect time! Murray should be an ideal partner for me to work through this course with. I am looking forward to our summer learning and bonding together! I hope to share my adventures along the way here. Stay tuned...

Not too far from where I live, tragedy struck Wednesday morning. Six people were shot while out doing everyday errands at a car wash and bar...
Learning and bonding sounds good to us. We hope you both enjoy it. Have a marvellous Monday.

That sounds like a very neat course. I do hope you'll keep us updated with all the cool things you'll be learning.
ReplyDeleteSort of the Busman's holiday??!! Maybe you can get some good ideas about training the human kids to respond to a clicker. (SHE is a retired teacher so thinks anything is a good idea.)

I think you will both enjoy the course. Murry is so intelligent he will excell at something like that.
