| The use of schedules of reinforcement for
modifying behavior is very POWERFUL, yet why does it sometimes
seem to cause as many problems as it solves? Why do dogs
become dependent upon the presence of reinforcers such as
food or toys for performance and why must training programs
have to include a process for "fading" them? This DVD discusses
the incredible influence schedules of reinforcement have
on modifying behavior and how to apply these principles
in the most effective way possible when teaching new skills.
The hypothesis presented will be that because random schedules
are almost impossible to maintain without conscious effort
or computer generated templates, and fixed schedules create
dependence problems, maybe they could and should be eliminated
and replaced with a reinforcement system that is even more
effective. This system is called THE THIRD WAY'S Three Criteria
for Reinforcement and is an exciting new and powerfully
effective model for behavior modification including problem
prevention, problem solving as well as teaching new skills.

| This is a "must have" DVD
for everyone who uses food! If you don�t use food, this
DVD will show you what an effective tool it is and how to
use it to your best advantage. Using food has wonderful
and magical benefits, yet there are problems that can seriously
hinder progress and results. This presentation, which was
taped at a conference, addresses issues such as owners that
become too dependent on food; dealing with dogs that become
too aroused to learn or obey in the presence of food; and
what to do when a dog shows no interest in food at all.
Exceptionally effective solutions and alternatives are shown
that are easy and make sense. Using food THE THIRD WAY will
insure that each dog you train has a great foundation and
becomes the best it can be whether food is present or not.
Watch this DVD and become a Master at the art of food training!

| Professionally videoed at a weekend seminar
in March 2003, these DVDs include discussions and demonstrations
of THE THIRD WAY'S basic theories and techniques for effectively
yet humanely teaching dogs reliable skills in preparation
for any partnership endeavor. Also explained are the differences
between teaching and problem solving and then how to develop
programs that successfully satisfy the specific requirements
for each of these endeavors. Enjoyable and enlightening
"people" games are played that help attendees and viewers
experience life from the dog's point of view. These insights
are then used to help trainers easily incorporate THE THIRD
WAY into their own programs. Live demonstrations with dogs
and puppies are used lavishly to give participants (and
viewers) the best possible educational experience for learning
THE THIRD WAY'S novel and effective teaching, problem preventing
and problem solving premises and procedures. |

| This revolutionary and provocative
presentation on the escalating problem of dog "aggression"
was professionally taped at an evening presentation in March
2003. Chris shows this problem from a dog's point of view
by utilizing the most up-to-date research information from
studies of feral and free-ranging urban dogs and her years
of close, personal observation of dogs and people interacting.
Chris also presents her reasons for utilizing dogs and dog
behavior and not wolves or wolf behavior for accessing and
then rectifying this problem. Novel and constructive approaches
for understanding and dealing with this difficult aspect
of dog behavior are presented with the goal of empowering
all dog owners and trainers to be more effective in preventing
this problem and developing viable and realistic solutions
to existing ones. |

|
|
| Don't miss this opportunity to learn THE
THIRD WAY'S new and empowering approach to this number one
concern. This 2-day seminar that was professionally videoed
in July 2003 begins with exploring wolf behavior, interaction
and evolution as an inaccurate model for determining how
dogs should act and people should treat them. Disempowering
terms such as "aggression" and phrases such as "dogs should
trust people" are exposed so that dog owners can embrace
a more realistic vocabulary and way of understanding dogs
and their responses. Dog aggression is reframed as defensiveness,
a natural dog behavior. Good guidance and management procedures
are presented to help owners prevent dogs from learning
and rehearsing defensiveness. Solutions to the problem of
"aggression" are explained and demonstrated including techniques
for teaching dogs self-imposed impulse control and reliable
deference skills. |
|
|
|
| Learn THE THIRD WAY'S innovative approach
to problem solving and why it is different than simply teaching
skills. Suggestions are offered for identifying the real
problem and then unique and user-friendly options are offered
with the goal of rectifying the problem with the least stress
possible for the dog and the owner. The problem of "social
pressure" is discussed and demonstrated in rich detail because
it is the root of so many problems, most notably those termed
"aggression", and is also the reason why so many problem
solving programs fail. Games and discussions are utilized
to help owners understand problems from the dog's point
of view. The philosophy and techniques presented can easily
be utilized to assist anyone in developing a realistic and
acceptable solution to both common and unique behavorial
problems. |
