Shaping and Free Shaping in Dog Training with Michael Ellis

Uploaded on June 16, 2020 • 4 min

Michael Ellis offers a 5 day Puppy Development Course at his school for dog trainers in Ca. for $1,000.00.

Leerburg filmed one of Michael's 5 day classes in the summer of 2019 and turned the footage into this online course. It contains over 20 hours of video broken down and organized into 232 video clips.

This course is an in depth primer on rearing a puppy for success in any discipline. It covers early “critical” socialization, “learning to learn,” shaping behavior, controlling environment to keep problems from emerging, proper play techniques (to maximize motivation), house breaking, and teaching manners without destroying a dogs motivation to work, and general management. This course is designed for a variety of trainers, from active pet dog trainers to competitive obedience, agility, or protection sport trainers. Learn to lay a solid foundation… it will pay off in the long run.

It's fun to watch the evolution of Michael's instruction talents and refinement of language and explanations. He's always been good but he keeps getting better.
I hope that he addresses the way free shaping can result in high levels of stress and shut down when it's not applied carefully and well. I find this is an area that many all positive trainers are in denial about.
