What do the car-stalking border collie, the pup who terrorizes the family cat, and the critter-hunting hound have in common? Less than you’d think! The chasing issues you are going to encounter in your work with your clients are as diverse as their solutions. This workshop looks at common temptations as well as different training and management approaches for dealing with dogs who like to chase.
