Is there a strict hierarchy in every wolf pack, which is enforced by the Alpha Wolf? Do I need to dominate my dog? If I lose the tug-of-war, will my dog assume that he's the pack leader?
Simone Mueller is a qualified dog trainer, dog behaviourist and author. She works as a volunteer in wolf monitoring for a large German conservation organisation and has worked with wolves in captivity.
In this course, you will learn about the real nature of wild wolves and what we can learn from them for life with our dogs. Which of our dog's behaviours are still typical wolf? How can we fulfil our dog's canine needs?
You will get an overview of how to use your dog's canine heritage for modern and reward-based dog training and you will get hands-on, practical training games that you can play with your dog to improve the relationship between you without being dominant and without the need to assure your alpha status.
