DOG TRAINING / HANDS ON is a concise overview of motivational training methods. Each student is "issued" a dog from the local community to practice new techniques, fitting equipment, play games and classroom procedures. Course I students will do "The Art of Shaping" - teaching dogs to paint a picture (a Dog Scouts of America badge) and a scenting exercise. We use the same methods used with the chicken training. Course II exercises will include chaining behaviors.

ETHOLOGY / BODY LANGUAGE follows the path of domestication; how dogs view our world; canine body language including stress identification and reduction; matters of space and resources; the social development of dogs with an emphasis on puppies; agonistic behavior. Lot's of video evaluation.

FAMILY DOG SKILLS / CHILDREN & DOGS instructs on supervision of children and dogs, good games to play, multitasking for parents of dogs and children. Also includes Bite awareness - how to keep dogs and children safe.

HUSBANDRY / DOG CARE Course I, Environmental Enrichment...
Examples, demonstrations and products provided in several of the other listed topics.

INSTRUCTION / PEOPLE SKILLS includes crafting your information into messages readily understood by client learning styles. The six hats (E. DeBono) method of communication exchange; changing negatives into positives; explanation strategies, demonstration techniques, individual coaching methods.

LEARNING THEORY / APPLICATION Classical and operant conditioning, the power of extinction, surfing the extinction burst. Most of the information given is practiced throughout the course with chickens, dogs and each other! Learning theory is one category in the Legacy "Jeopardy" game. It was designed to help people prepare for the national CPDT examination.

OBSERVATION / PARTICIPATION, LEGACY CLASSES You will observe Legacy instructors and student instructors teaching one or more of the following classes: "Your S.O.C.I.A.L. Puppy", "Pet Dog Manners" I, "Pet Dog Manners II", and one of our twenty or so continuing education (Level III) classes. We practice collecting data for a dog and human ethogram, evaluating temperaments and methods.

PUPPY HEADSTART, SOCIALIZATION, TRAINING Students observe a class, then plan a lesson and teach (under supervision!) at one of our twice-a-week free puppy drop in session

LIVE CLIENT ORIENTATION takes you inside Legacy Canine for a real client orientation night. Terry talks to new clients and demonstrates what should be covered in any orientation event.

WHY DOG TRAINERS SHOULD TRAIN CHICKENS.
Trainer’s are not “bonded” to their chickens. Chickens do not have big brown eyes. Trainers do not have bad (or good!) chicken training habits because they’ve never trained a chicken before, thus avoiding the baggage often taken to dog training workshops. You will not be showing your chickens at the next performance event, nor will you be taking them home, so there is no pressure on what will happen in the future. You probably do not have a library full of chicken training books and DVD's to influence you, much less televisions shows on chicken training.
 

Training a chicken is a stretch and a boost to your mechanical skills. The average chicken is faster than the average dog, giving you a chance to improve your coordination and timing. Chickens will freeze or fly away if they don’t like the way you are training them. Unlike dogs, you will know immediately if you are taking advantage of a chicken or pushing too hard too fast. Chickens don’t give their trainers a second chance as often as our dogs Improve your mechanical skill and understanding of training basics by clicker training a chicken!

Terry Ryan's introduction to clicker training occurred in the late 70's at a Karen Pryor course. Her early association with Karen Pryor was inspirational. In 1979, Terry completed her first "real" clicker project, a hearing dog. In the mid 1980's Terry hosted and taught Legacy's International Behavior and Training Camps. Students trained rats and dogs. The transition from rats to chickens occurred in 1993 when Ingrid Kang Shallenberger (formerly of Sea Life Park in Hawaii) and Terry started to team teaching the first few "chicken training" camps. In the late 1990's Legacy invited Marian Breland-Bailey and Bob Bailey to come out of retirement to teach the chicken unit at Legacy's camps. The Baileys brought a great deal of experience and expertise to the courses and soon began teaching chicken-only operant conditioning courses in Hot Springs, Arkansas. In 2006 Bob Bailey began teaching his courses at Legacy's training center in Sequim, Washington. Terry has been using chickens as models for training in her various courses ever since. Some of Legacy's local continuing education courses have a prerequisite of a short course on chicken training!

Terry's Poultry In Motion class will focuses on mechanical skill and learning science. Each student is issued one or two chickens each. The hands-on chicken's portion of the course consists of 10 minute training sessions that total approximately two + contact hours. The remainder of the time consists of planning and learning about the exercises that will be taught to the chickens. Included are Systematic desensitization, shaping, discrimination, criteria setting, and extinction. Overshadowing, Premack Principle, and much more

Terry continues to tweak her original Toolbox, first published by Howell in 1995. For the last 30 years, the Toolbox has been Legacy's basis for addressing unwanted behavior. Four foundation blocks and eight specific tools (or ingredients) are presented and then considered as possibilities to create a program (or recipe) for various problems from the audience. Using the Toolbox as a framework, the specific behaviors of inappropriate barking and inappropriate elimination will be defined and addressed.

About Aversives is based on research from Sidman, Skinner, Breland, and Bailey and her own extensive experience. Terry talks about the possible "fallout" or "baggage" that can accompany aversives. What are the critical components for aversives if they are to be applied properly and why they are seldom called for. She talks about alternatives. The use of some common and not-so common training tools and equipment will be addressed. Dog Sense Course Sequim, WA 2004

OUTWITTING DOGS
Item# B1040 -
$25.00


Terry Ryan and Kirsten Mortensen
Training dogs has traditionally been done by using negative reinforcement and brute force. Take the choke collar as an example. But the tide is turning, and Terry Ryan, world-renowned dog trainer, is at the forefront of a revolution. Outwitting Dogs draws on her twenty-five years of hands-on experience helping people understand dogs, train dogs, and solve dog behavior problems using kinder, gentler methods. Outwitting Dogs uses more brain than brawn to motivate dog behavior with positive training techniques and helps readers truly understand the minds of their canine friends (and even enemies).

Not only will you learn how to outwit and housetrain puppies, but you'll also find techniques to cure:

  • the chronic chewer

  • the dog who won't come

  • the leash puller

  • the dog who barks too much

  • the dog who jumps on people

  • the biter

  • the dog who hates to be left alone

  • the aggressor

You'll even learn how to outwit the neighbor's dog, teach your own dog tricks, outwit dog trainers, outwit dogs and kids at the same time, and much more. No sensible dog owner will want to be without a copy.


LIFE BEYOND BLOCK HEELING

COMBINATION PACKAGE: DVD & BOOK
(
CLICK HERE for ordering information )

Terry says training time can be fun times. There is life beyond block heeling! Games are a part of every class and every workshop I conduct. I’m developing new games all the time. I make them up as I go along and I encourage you to do the same!

This book is a continuation of the collection of games that began in Games People Play To Train Their Dogs. It has more than forty new activities. As motivational training methods become increasingly more popular, instructors are finding that training games are a fun and effective addition to obedience classes.


THE BARK STOPS HERE
Item# B1019 -
$9.95


58 page booklet


If you’re a fan of 60’s music, you’ll remember the Tremeloes song, “Silence is Golden”. The lyrics imply that silence is sought after, but not easy to obtain. The quest for gold is rarely straightforward. Helping your dog be quiet isn’t either. Creativity and lateral thinking are paramount to success.

Rather than punishing a noisy dog, owners can learn a variety of alternative methods for successfully dealing with the problem. The Bark Stops Here is not a step-by-step recipe book for silence. Nor is it totally scientific. At times it borders on being anthropromorphic. Dogs probably don’t think in human terms as The Bark Stops Here might imply. If they did, they’d be taking mental notes for their next book on human training. They’re different, and knowing those differences enhances our relationship. This book’s strength is in giving owners insight as to why their dogs are barking and information on some behavior modification and management techniques to deal with it. Appropriately. Realistically. Humanely.
