Webinar – 8/6/20 – Anatomy of Attention: When the VAN ran over DAN, and other tales with Suzanne Clothier (fee applies)

Virtual

Suzanne Clothier Presents: However we may define it, here’s the reality: We can get frustrated and confused when a dog doesn’t (can't?) focus, or won’t give us his attention no matter how much we know or how good our timing may be. We’re smart trainers, so we know it’s not dominance or being stubborn or blowing us off but sometimes, we’re left scratching our own heads and asking, “What’s really going on in that dog’s head?”
