The Academy for Dog Trainers has made a huge commitment to helping dogs feel more comfortable at the vet. Academy staff, grads and students have spent hundreds of hours field-testing training plans and bringing them together in a super user-friendly format.
The Academy has made this important resource available to the public for no charge as part of our give-back to the community of dogs and those who care for them.
Jean has long been a trailblazer in the world of dog training. Her groundbreaking book “The Culture Clash” was named the No. 1 dog training and behavior book by The Association of Pet Dog Trainers. In fact APDT founder Dr. Ian Dunbar described it as “simply the best dog book I have ever read” and one that “redefined the state of the art of dog-friendly dog training.”
Jean has authored many other books and lectured extensively all around the world. She is the go-to trainer for other trainers looking for guidance or case support and spent six years handling only aggression cases referred by other trainers. She continues to take cases involving Chow Chows with aggression issues.
The Husbandry Project contains training plans for the crucial behaviors needed to make dogs comfortable including restraint, handling and blood draws.
