Jeff Meyer’s class on Marker Training for Detection Dogs will walk you through the process of establishing the marker training method for both the green dog as well as introducing it to a dog that is already trained in detection work. The step by step program that Jeff uses is effective and easy to implement. In this class, you will see how Marker Training for Detection Dogs will help speed up your training time. We will explain how quickly the marker will make the essential connection for the dog between the odor, his response and the reward. This class will discuss the other benefits of Marker Training for Detection Dogs, to include lessening the dog’s learning curve, aiding trainers who struggle with poor handler timing, helping reduce frustration for both the dog and the handler. Markers also assist in removing issues with handler cuing, thus making canine communication clear.

This decoy class is focused on fundamentals for new decoys. Primary focus is on leaning how to be safe for the dogs and decoys as well as learning how to read behavior. The decoy is responsible for teaching and training the dog, learning the difference in drives and how to communicate and channel those drives depending on the dog. We will cover dog behavior – genetics vs. training, what the different drives are and how to recognize them, as well as different types of equipment and tools and the differences between good and bad.
