DeMello, Janice *The Around the Clock Method of Scent Discrimination
*Massage Ear-Pinch Method of Force Retrieve *Go Outs - The
Concept of Straight *The Eight Week course on Attention Each
tape order includes a handout or booklet that summarizes the
method. Each tape is very throrough in its description of the
progression and addresses many of the common problems
associated with teaching the exercise. I highly recommend all
of these tapes. (ngl)
(About Around the Clock Scent Discrimination) Really good and
very useful. But she does go into excruciating detail and I
found I fast forwarded through the middle section. I can still
remember her saying over and over "Reheat rescent recheese!"
But it worked very well for my dog and I recommend it. It's a
nice alternative to the traditional tie down method. (tc)
(About 8 Week Attention Course) Really good. I used her method
and it worked well for my dog. The only thing I didn't like was
I wished she used untrained dogs so she could show a
correction. She would say "if Stride looked away I would do
XXX." Well, Stride was great and never did look away! (tc)

Handler, Barbara

Pryor, Karen
+ Click!
+ Shaping
With Gary Wilkes. "Click!" explores the use of the clicker as a
secondary reinforcer and how operant conditioning can be
applied to dog training. This was filmed at actual seminars.
(kw)
"Shaping" goes in depth on how to use shaping and secondary
reinforcers in dog training. You should view this one first, in
my opinion, even though it is second in the series. (kw)

Silverton, Annemarie
+ Puppy Training
+ Novice
+ Open
+ Utility
+ Problem Solving in Open
+ Problem Solving in Utility
+ Problem Solving in Heeling - Focused Attention
These tapes are well made with an abundance of information. It
would be handy if there were a handout with the summary, since
the amount of information is almost overwhelming. One other
drawback with this series is that as the tapes progress, they
make many references to previous tapes. So if a person wanted
to buy only the Focused Attention tape, there is alot of
reference to the Novice and Puppy tapes. (ngl) They're full of
good information, but you have to watch them very carefully.
Sometimes she will show a dog doing an exercise or learning
something but necessarily explain everything. The Puppy and
Novice tapes go over all the foundation work. You really need
to watch those before the Open and Utilty. Also, the Open and
Utility tapes are shorter than Puppy and Novice and you might
feel like you didn't get your money's work. I really liked the
Focused Attention one since lack of attention causes problems
in everything! (tc)
These tapes can be ordered through J&J and quite possibly other
places like R.C. Steele and other book/video catalogs.
Volhard & Fisher
+ The Volhard & Fisher Training Video Tapes
These tapes use HIGHLY trained dogs to demonstrate the
exercises, which isn't necessarily any more useful than reading
a description of them in a book. (rg)
Wilkes, Gary
+ Touch!
This goes with the two Pryor tapes. This he produced on his
own. It explores how to use the Touch Stick in dog training,
and is applied to exercises in Obedience and Agility on the
tape. For example, he shows how to use the touch stick to teach
the go-out. (kw)
