Building a strong relationship and understanding your dog should be essential parts of dog training. Lucy focuses on these areas as well as human factors which influence this relationship. Her methods are based in science and learning theory. Positive reinforcement methods are used most often and she doesn't use aversives such as shock or e-collars, or prong collars. Lucy has two dogs, Krueger and Myers, who compete in dryland sledding. She also has three cats, Voorhees, Torrance and Wilkes. |
