Description
Using feral dogs as our teachers to improve our knowledge of dogs and ourselves, this two-day feral dog rehabilitation workshop in New Mexico is like no other dog training experience out there. Feral dogs are like magnifying glasses on our dog training skills, behaviors, and mindset. Feral dog rehab gets to the essence and depth of the human-dog relationship with an animal that has developed street smarts and survival techniques without human influence. The lessons feral and fearful dogs teach can be applied to help ALL dogs.
Register to watch the online compilation of three (3) Fearful/Feral Dog workshops recordings and interviews with Nelson Hodges discussing the challenges, actions and results of working with fearful/feral dogs. You will be guided by Julie Hart, an experienced and effective feral dog rehabilitator, in collaboration with Nelson Hodges, founder of Canine Human Relationship Institute. The workshops focused on classroom and demonstration with some hands-on opportunities. The class focus will be on trust building, human/dog body language, leash handling, predictability, and building relationships. You will learn how humans can connect with dogs on a deep level by being what dogs need to feel safe. Learning how to be present by controlling your mind, energy, emotions, and expectations are all side benefits of working with feral dogs.
