So happy to read that Encore is better. We worry so when there is anything wrong.

Here’s hoping Encore’s troubles are behind her!
It must be interesting teaching in countries where English isn’t the native language?

Wow! Thanks! It must be my luck day

It was really cool seeing everyone’s videos. I love watching the process way more than the final trick.

Susan, I will email the address off of your website rather than post my address here, but thanks again!

Dejavu…I was just thinking “I haven’t seen a newsletter for some time!”

Perhaps it will announce some new training workshops to come!?!?

I can’t believe you’re leaving us again!!!!!!! Hopefully this time next year you’ll be a little more tied to home

Hmm Andrea, perhaps I should define “off.” It was used not in the context of down time but as in leaving. I am off to Orlando where I am crewing at a Tony Robbins workshop, I catch a flight the night it ends to teach in Italy for a week, then I return home for 3 days to re-pack and head to Finland to teach for 3 days. Not really “off” and yes my teaching skills will be put to use:).

Off again until the end of the month? That won’t do, you’ll totally get bored or feel hollow and empty not being able to use your natural teaching abilities, hmmm don’t worry Phoenix and I have lots of things to work on, we can keep you busy lol

One of the biggest things I have learned from you is when to put the clicker away in shaping! It has helped me tremendously with my young dog, and my students’ dogs, to decide when to use the clicker and when not to. I am really grateful for that insight, since the clicker can be really reinforcing for the humans and sometimes not the best tool for the task at hand. My dogs are grateful too!
