Dr. Spophia Yin is another excellent trainer who is out there. I'm particularly impressed with the information she has on "Sophia's Approach to Modifying Behavior of Dogs and Other Animals."
As I've stated before, there seems to be a lot of information about what NOT to do, but not so much (at least not as accessible, in my opinion) about what you should do... or more appropriately, outdated methods vs. methods based on science.
The other thing I really like about her site is the number of videos she has on how to apply a positive reinforcement technique in everyday situations, among other things.
I hope this will be helpful to some people and their dogs.

Missourians for the Protection of Dogs
As I've mentioned before (click here), Missouri leads the country in the number of puppy mills. There is an initiative to get something on the November ballot to change that. I hope everyone will participate.
Missourians for the Protection of Dogs is spearheading a new, citizen-backed ballot initiative that will improve the lives of dogs in commercial breeding operations in Missouri.
