Behavior Talk show

Summary: Part of our series of interviews from the 2010 Association of Pet Dog Trainers conference in Atlanta, Georgia, this episode features a conversation with Victoria Stilwell, host of the popular TV series “It’s Me or The Dog,” and noted presenter.  During my talk with Victoria Stilwell, she shares who some of her professional influences have been, and what she’s learned that has made her the kind of trainer she is today.  She also discusses some of the special issues involved when working with a dog  while filming a TV show. And we talk about “Thinking Dog,” how to better understand how a dog relates to his environment, and how it’s different from the way people see the world.  Finally we talk about her efforts to extend and promote the use of positive training methods through her many ventures which can found on her website, Positively.com.
