Shapsing:
1.) A process in which a selected behavior is obtained by
differentially reinforcing successive approximations of it; 2.)
Breaking down the training objective or target into more manageable
and easily learned parts
Are you looking
for an opportunity to spend several days in the country having fun
with your dog in a relaxed, supportive environment? Want to help
your dog learn how to offer behaviors more freely? Sharpen your
shaping skills? Make new positive dog training friends?
If so, then
Shaping Camp is for you!
This three-day
camp created and taught by Certified Pet Dog Trainer/author Pat
Miller is designed for the novice-to-experienced shaper with plenty
of built-in flexibility and opportunity for you to pursue your own
training goals.
Release your
creativity: practice basic and free shaping exercises; learn tricks,
targeting, good manners behaviors, retrieve, shave points off
obedience and Rally scores. Shape your dog to take a bow; crawl; go
to his place; put his toys away; bring you a tissue; say his
prayers; play jump rope, climb a tree; the sky’s the limit!
Peaceable Paws’
80-acre campus is located just south of
Hagerstown, Maryland
– 90 minutes west of Baltimore and
Washington DC.
Please feel free to call or e-mail if you have questions. We look
forward to playing with you and your dog!
Woofs,
Pat
