Dog Trainers Have Fun While Learning Techniques to Help Others

“This year’s E Collar Palooza 4 was awesome.”  That was the response we got from so many who attended this year.  E Collar Palooza is not only about how to train dogs but it’s also about how to communicate with people, and how to bring life to a place of clear direction.

The professional dog trainers came from all of the US as well as Greece to an event and an advanced dog training academy taught by Robin MacFarlane of That’s My Dog, Hazel Green, WI and Jt Clough of K9 Coach, San Diego.  These pro dog trainers have businesses that provide private lessons, group lessons, board & train, and canine boot camps.

The profession of dog training is so much more than just how to get Fiona to sit!  It’s a lot about helping people to have a cohesive family.  To provide the help so that that best friend feeling lives throughout people’s lives on a daily basis.  It’s also about providing a way for dogs to have clear communication so that they live a life that has boundaries as well as a lot of freedoms.

This year’s theme was “Think Outside the Box”.  It was well named as several lessons and exercises that each participant did was like no other dog training presentation before.

One participant from New Jersey wrote us with this quote, “To the Advance E-Cademy - I cannot put into words what those 5 days meant to me and my dog.  It was an enlightening and growth experience on so many levels.  The energy, support and caring of all that participated will stay with me for a very long time.”

We are busy planning next year’s event already.  In the meantime Dog Training Camp goes on here in San Diego, and the Dog Trainers School goes on in Wisconsin.
