Steve Williams is very excited to announce Part One of a Three-Part Training Seminar with Kris Kotsopoulos from Von Forell Australia.
Regardless of what your training application is this seminar will offer something for you all. A key secret Kris will deliver is the deliberate application of classical conditioning as compared to ones created unintentionally. 

Part One is where Kris will delve into the specifics of Obedience and Engagement with our canine companions. Part Two will be on tracking and part three is on protection or as he prefers to call it "Drive Fulfillment"



Topics Include...

‣ How dogs learn
‣ What drives them
‣ How to motivate them
‣ How to balance concentration and motivation
‣ How to amplify attitude and not suppress it
‣ How can/should we interact for best results
‣ Dominance-what is it?
‣ Classical conditioning & Instrumental / Operant
conditioning simplified
‣ Markers-what are they and how do we use them
‣ Schedules of reinforcement & timing
‣ Deep discussion on the 4 learning quadrants
