Welcome
to the world of positive reinforcement dog training!
In the past dozen years, the world of dog training has undergone a
marvelous revolution. As the scientifically based learning theory
has permeated all kinds of animal training, we now are able to reach new
heights in training but more importantly in our very relationships with
our dogs. We owe Marian and Bob Bailey, Karen Pryor, Ian Dunbar,
and Gary Wilkes much for their role in this transformation and many
trainers who followed, including Morgan Spector, Pat Miller, Melissa Alexander, and Susan Garrett (to name just a few
who have
influenced me) for translating this method for dog trainers.
The
Association of Pet Dog Trainers was formed in 1993 to promote these
new techniques into every day dog training.
