I felt compelled to write this post, hopefully I did it without judgement.  I know I have addressed this topic many times in the past but it certainly is worth more than one look. Do you know [...]]]> http://susangarrettdogagility.com/2011/08/the-possibilities-in-dog-training/feed/ 173 http://susangarrettdogagility.com/2011/07/mixing-methodologies/ http://susangarrettdogagility.com/2011/07/mixing-methodologies/#comments Fri, 15 Jul 2011 17:53:50 +0000 Susan http://susangarrettdogagility.com/?p=7201 Okay, I just love this photo of the “great white” from yesterday’s video, yes this is my special “DeeDog” girle “DeCaff.” She claims not guilty, I tend to believe her as all our dogs are just a product of what we know. To follow up on yesterday’s blog post about the impact of “corrections” on [...]]]> http://susangarrettdogagility.com/2011/07/mixing-methodologies/feed/ 58 http://susangarrettdogagility.com/2011/01/is-good-dog-training-static-or-dynamic/ http://susangarrettdogagility.com/2011/01/is-good-dog-training-static-or-dynamic/#comments Wed, 26 Jan 2011 12:16:17 +0000 Susan http://susangarrettdogagility.com/?p=6138 We just wrapped up four days of puppy and young dog training. It started with our two day Advances in Dog Training (AiDT) and then rolled right into Critical Elements (the camp formerly known as puppy camp:)). As of January 2010 we now been honouring a policy that allows anyone that has attended AiDT once [...]]]> http://susangarrettdogagility.com/2011/01/is-good-dog-training-static-or-dynamic/feed/ 28 http://susangarrettdogagility.com/2010/04/a-pictorial-glimpse-at-the-critical-elements-of-say-yes/ http://susangarrettdogagility.com/2010/04/a-pictorial-glimpse-at-the-critical-elements-of-say-yes/#comments Mon, 19 Apr 2010 09:35:43 +0000 Susan http://susangarrettdogagility.com/?p=3230 Well we have launched! Two weekends ago we unrolled the first “Flatwork Secrets” & “Blueprint for Handling Success.” This past weekend it was “Advances in Dog Training” and “Critical Elements.” I like the way things piece together and although it always seems I have more I want to teach, I like the way the entire [...]]]> http://susangarrettdogagility.com/2010/04/a-pictorial-glimpse-at-the-critical-elements-of-say-yes/feed/ 14 http://susangarrettdogagility.com/2009/08/puppy-camp-success/ http://susangarrettdogagility.com/2009/08/puppy-camp-success/#comments Mon, 31 Aug 2009 11:14:40 +0000 Susan http://susangarrettdogagility.com/?p=1746 Another puppy camp has been put to bed. What fun! It was all I thought it would be and more. Fun puppies and great students, I mean they really embraced the program. More energy by the last day on Sunday, then even the first day Friday!
