The Ultimate Image
by John Buddie
The Ultimate
Image is created by the bonding and interaction of dog and owner.
“Engagement” is the most important motivation to stimulate learning, and most
breeders wait until puppies go to their new homes before trying to create a
learning environment. That is simply wasting valuable time. Every
breeder needs to begin creating that Ultimate Image from the moment a litter is
born. Every single day can stimulate learning, and more importantly, the
desire to learn. Learning how to manage stress, to reinforce positively,
to engage, and to create a stimulating learning environment for puppies is the
key to maximizing potential. This presentation offers a look into the
dynamics of making this all happen.
John Buddie has been breeding Collies for 44 years and has bred

RelationshipBuildingThrough
Play
by Karen Schelling
Relationship Building Through Play
Whether we are involved in competitive sports or simply want to enjoy our time
with our dogs as companions, the human-animal bond is the root of our
connection with our dogs. This workshop will explore the use of play and
games to forge a stronger bond with our canine friends. Based upon the
concept that “play drive is prey drive”, games will be used to focus attention,
build drive, and cement the closeness that we feel with our dogs. These
behaviors can then be applied as skills that are useful in agility, obedience
and/or other competitive venues.
