About Me:
 
I am overwhelmed with hundreds of messages now, I am not sure I will be able to answer them all! Ack~!

I train my dogs using the clicker training method (used by aquariums and zoos)- which is a subset of operant conditioning. That means I don't use positive punishment or negative reinforcement (I don't say 'no!' or 'eh eh' etc) Instead I use positive reinforcement and negative punishment (I add good things and take away good things from my dogs environment)

Hi! I have a dog that looks just like Kiko. She was a rescue puppy and I was told she was 100% chihuahua. Pretty much everyone that sees her asks what she's mixed with. Is Kiko full chihuahua? I think it's the long legs and slender nose that throw people off. I've really enjoyed watching your clips!

Im having a little confusion with the "say NO" trick. My BC touches the targets but what is the command you use to get them to do it once the targets arent there anymore and when should you remove the targets and start using a command? Is it a hand gesture? When should I start it? Thank You!!

Emily - I wanted to thank you for so generously sharing your time and talents. Your dogs are cute and amazing and your videos have helped me IMMENSELY in training our two newly adopted dogs. I was so overwhelmed before stumbling across your loose leash video. Again, thank you SO much for helping me learn how to help them. Now we can all enjoy our walk time! :o)

Thanks for the time and effort you put into your wonderful videos. They've helped me and my dog so much. Without your lessons, we'd be miserable, because my dog is 4 years old, newly adopted, and without a clue about how to act . Now, with a stead diet of training and encouragement, he's becoming not only manageable, but wonderful to be around. He still has a long way to go, but thanks to you, the path ahead is clear. A picture is worth a thousand words, but your videos are of inestimable value.

How many times a day can you train your dogs and how long are the sessions?

You always use treats, or maybe sometimes their meals too?

Thx for all the tutorials! reaaally helpful :)
