This is her side: http://www.canis.no/rugaas/
I read some of her books and I learnt a lot about animal communication and dog training.
I think she is a very special woman!
And next year she is in Germany and I visit her course.
I got one of the very rare tickets! 8)
Yes, it was great!
It took me one week to collect my notes I wrote during the seminar (28 pages in handwriting ... 8O )
I would write some parts down here but it is all in German ... perhaps later!
Turid told a lot interestin things about:
1.) Stress
Why dogs have stress?
How you can recognise that your dog is stressed?
What are the causes for dogs beeing stressed?
What happens in a body when it has stress?
How to train a puppy or a dog that it will have not so much stress in its life?
2.) The language of Dogs
What are the calming signals?
How to use the calming signals?
The meanings of barking, growling, baying
...
Turid showed us her new DVD "What do I do ...
when my dog pulls?" and I like it more than the book, because it is easier to
understand if you watch a DVD than to read a book (and the DVD is funny
...lwatching other peoples mistakes is funny ..).
And in the last week I read Turids book (I bought it so she could autograph it)
"Barking: The Sound of a Language (Dogwise Training Manual)"
It is not only about barking ... Some things she mentioned in her
seminar are written in this book to - about stress, and barking and
what to do ... And to the book belongs a CD with the different sounds of
Barking ...
Now I know Gero shows 3 kinds of different barking and most of them
are nice (not to worry about..).
Some of these informations are new for me and now I have to use
this in real life ... :wink:
