•AM I
SAFE?
The art and
science of canine behavior assessments
Item# 200520 -
$49.95 |
This 2-DVD set covers the fundamentals of behavior assessments (also known as temperament testing) and builds on the
material covered in "The Language of Dogs".
What are these tests? Who should do them? When should they be done? Are they valid? What can they tell us about the future
behavior of a dog currently in our care, and just as important, what can't they tell us? How can testers and handlers insure
their safety during the assessment process?
Taken from a two-day seminar on this topic, the package includes the 2-disk set, a Blue Dog Behavior Assessment Form, and
objective scales for rating a dog's behavior on critical portions of the assessment.
The program focuses on teaching how to conduct each part of the assessment safely, what to look for in the dog's behavior
during the tests, how to document areas of concern, and how to determine if problem areas uncovered during the assessment
can be improved using behavior modification techniques.
Also explored is the validity of assessment protocols and why behavior evaluations are an important tool for anyone involved
in the re-homing of companion animals.
The most comprehensive tool available for anyone who is thinking about implementing a behavior assessment program in his or
her organization, "Am I Safe? The Art and Science of Canine Behavior Assessments" includes hours of video examples and shows
how to interpret the results, as well as providing all of the documentation needed to implement the behavior assessment
process - this set covers it all.
This set is also highly educational for ALL dog professionals, not just those working in a shelter or rescue environment,
wanting to see the broad range of canine behaviors exhibited during behavior assessments as these same behaviors are
exhibited by dogs in any environment they may be in. |

----------------------------------------
Most dogs do an excellent job of communicating with people, as well as with other dogs. Most people, unfortunately, are
not so skilled in understanding what is being "said". This lecture goes beyond the basics and takes an in=depth look at a
dog's repertoire of communication signals presented with countless examples in full motion video. Stress signals, calming
signals, distance increasing signals, distance decreasing signals and precursors of aggression will be covered as well as
situational examples such as reading a dog upon first meeting or around a food bowl.
