We'll also discuss anticipatory grief and the special situation of getting a scary diagnosis for your pet during quarantine. Participants will get and share ideas about how to memorialize a pet.

Choice Words: How Labels Can Get in the Way of Solutions When your pet is causing problems, you might have a number of choice words about them. Maybe you call them “stubborn,” “dominant,” “stupid,” “jealous,” or “unpredictable.” Maybe you wonder if that means they need a different type of training, or even a different type of home. Labels like these can cloud your understanding of the real problem and prevent you from finding solutions to the behavior challenges you face. Instead, Jessica will offer more accurate and useful explanations for common behavior issues.

The first session will cover management, defensive handling, and foundation training for focus. The second session will dive into desensitization and counter-conditioning to address the emotional components of your dog's reactivity.

This allows you to view the classes outside of the instruction arena without your dog present.

Cost: Free Is your dog a puller? Is it a challenge to manage your pup's enthusiasm for the outdoors when walking the neighborhood or hiking on trails? We have all had this challenge! Please join us for a demonstration and instruction on beginning to teach your dog to walk comfortably and happily with a loose leash. This is a HUMANS ONLY introduction. We will have a demonstration dog at the event, but to minimize distractions, please leave your pup at home. Our instructor for this event is Annelliese Delacroix. Annelliese specializes in relationship-based training, helping dogs and owners overcome everything from leash-pulling to reactivity and aggression. She holds a certificate in dog behavior from England and is currently working toward her animal behavior certification - CBCC-KA (Certified Behavior Consultant Canine Knowledge-Assessed). Annelliese uses force-free methods— she helps dogs succeed by working at their pace, and by keeping training fun. She prefers force-free methods because it allows people to build deeper, more trusting bonds with their canine companions. Annelliese is mom to the amazing Maze, a gorgeous Belgian Malinois, and she recently fostered Charlie, an American Staffordshire Terrier, with Silicon Valley Pet Project.
