Relationship Centered Training

This course is clear and concise. It gives you easy ways to impliment change and forge a better relationship with you dog on a walk.

I identified with the leash habit types as described by the quiz. The advice and suggestions to improve our leash habits was clearly explained and the advice on how to implement the changes was practical. I’m glad I took this free course - thanks Suzanne for offering tips and guidance for free!

This course is a great beginning. Most notably, for me, because Suzanne Clothier acknowledges the handler's motivation, and our good intentions, that lead to mixed signals or worse. I am a leash feeder. Because I feel my responsibility to my dog's need to smell things, and explore new places. He is my first solo dog -- I've always had multiple dogs. I feel guilty that he doesn't have more dog-orientedactivity than he does. Today, I concentrated on my breathing, during our walk. Really concentrated, as if I were in a yoga class. Huge difference. Stevie Ray dog was relaxed and happy. Same, at home. His post-walk hyperactivity dissolved into napping, just because I practiced breathing.

Very simple course which I have covered with other training.

Some good beginning strategies for maintaining a consistent leash length and for knowing how loose your leash should be.

I love knots in the lead and have found these so useful. Having a new young rescue dog, it was a great reminder!
