Webinar – 3/25/21 – Resource Guarding or Rule Setting – Suzanne Clothier (fee applies)

Virtual

Suzanne Clothier Presents (fee applies): This webinar focuses on the poorly understood behaviors that we label as “resource guarding.” This topic deserves a clear eyed look at these behaviors, what may be motivating them, how these fit within the context of natural dog behavior, and how to approach working with these behaviors with a more nuanced understanding. I see important differences between resource guarding and rule setting, an important distinction.
