SPECIAL ONLINE EVENT: Positive Training with Annie Phenix
ABOUT THE EVENT:
Join us for an in-depth discussion with Annie Phenix, certified professional dog trainer and author of Positive Training for Aggressive and Reactive Dogs. If you have read the book or would just be interested in hearing what Annie has to share about positive training, we encourage you to take part in this discussion. Annie will review proven techniques to help your dog overcome fear and anxiety. She will also share ways to rehabilitate your anxious dog to be calm and stop bad behavior.
Annie’s new book has been on the bestseller lists in the #1 spot for a year and a half, including a year prior to publication. She interviewed 16 world class experts in this book and she loves sharing what she learned from these bright minds. She shares what to do first with a reactive dog that actually helps dogs quickly, and it is very different than what the industry has been focusing on for decades.
In addition, Annie will host a Q&A with participants.
This event will take place in our Zoom Room. You will receive the Zoom Room link after registering for this event.
