Packed with information, "Reactivity in Herding Breed Dogs" will help you understand what reactivity is, why your dog is the way they are, how to help them, and common mistakes to avoid. You'll get helpful plans to use with your trainer to maximize your handling and turn you into a pro.

NEW BOOK: Puppy Kindergarten: The New Science of Raising a Great Dog by Brian Hare and Vanessa Wood is now available at Dogwise.com

What does it take to raise a great dog? This was the question that husband-and-wife team Brian Hare and Vanessa Woods hoped to answer when they enrolled one hundred and one puppies in the Duke Puppy Kindergarten. With the help of a retired service dog named Congo, Brian, Vanessa, and their team set out to understand the secrets of the puppy mind: What factors might predict whether a puppy will grow up to change someone’s life?

Never has cuteness been so cutting edge. Applying the same games that psychologists use when exploring the development of young children, Hare and Woods uncover what happens in a puppy’s mind during their final stage of rapid brain development. Follow the adventures of Arthur, who makes friends with toy dinosaurs; Wisdom, the puppy genius; and Ying, who fails at cognitive games that even pigeons usually pass with flying colors. Along the way, learn about when puppies finally start to retain memories for longer than just a few seconds, or when they finally develop some self-control.

Raising dozens of puppies on a college campus means you get pretty good at answering big questions, such as: When do puppies sleep through the night? How do you stop them from eating p**p? How can we help our puppies grow up to be the best dogs they can possibly be? Whether you are a new puppy parent or a perennial puppy lover, Puppy Kindergarten will answer every question you’ve ever had about puppies—and some you never thought to ask.

We mourn the loss of Karen Pryor, an iconic leader of our industry.
Let us honor her memory, and the legacy she leaves, by striving to always be eager to learn, so that we may continuing to improve the lives of animals in our care.

From the book "On My Mind: Reflections On Animal Behavior and Learning" by Karen Pryor:

I think the “game”—and the communicative aspect of our clicker work—is far from artificial. It exemplifies Mother Nature at her best. So much of the behavioral world divides what animals do into “natural’” behavior, such as dominance, fear and aggression, and “behavior modification” or training. In truth, I think it’s a continuum, with a lot of overlap. Let’s bring these diverging views together; let us talk about the whole animal, brain included—it’s the separation that’s artificial.
