The Dogs’ Spot Speaker Series Presents Ben Perkins on Box Feeding: The Why, The What, and The How
Tuesday, August 12th, 6:30 pm
Free event, designed for humans only.
Ben Perkins, a Physical Therapist, Adjunct Professor in Neuro Conditions, and Dog Uber Nerd, will take you on a deep dive into the realm of Box Feeding. While at first the name and idea sound simple, the focus is on teaching a skill not a behavior. Box feeding is a wonderful way to create a predictable training space we can take with us, and to communicate the ways we will interact with the dog and reinforce the dog. Ideal for busy, antsy, or stressed dogs, Box Feeding helps dogs learn how to cope with and in high-energy or trying situations. Ben has a passion for helping people and dogs become the best they can with what they have, building interest in ongoing learning and exploration, and helping (and living with) high energy, high drive dogs.
