Training According to Temperament Workshops
Improve the diversity of dog training skills
Want to expand your flexibility and diversity as a dog trainer? Phyllis and Julie consider each dog's individual temperament when devising training plans. The first step starts with accurate evaluation of each dog, then create ways to connect with, rehabilitate, and train the dog according to the temperament. By applying a wide range of techniques and methods, Phyllis and Julie can show trainers how to individualize training per dog that creates better results, better relationships, and longer lasting behavior changes. Learn how to apply the right technique at the right time with the right dog.

FEEDBACK from previous workshops
".... It was very fascinating learning about some of the nuances of dog behavior and how to manage them. While I am sure it’s often difficult to deliver unpleasant messages about someone's dog, I find that you do so in a very non-judgmental way which is greatly appreciated. "
"It was different from others I have attended - in a good way. Came away with the understanding that a dog's temperament can't necessarily be fixed...which other trainers won't say or believe. I learned alot and appreciate the time spent with my dogs"
"I felt like I learned perspectives I hadn’t known before and validated some of the things I knew. It also taught me a gentler approach to training."
"I have been to a lot of seminars and I felt this to be one of the best as far as helpful hands on information. Phyllis' and Julie's knowledge will help many trainers."
"No judgement. Very welcoming to everyone."
