Rowe Seminar – Journey to the Heart

Kevin Behan Training at Rowe Seminar 2009

Kevin Behan and the NDT staff delivered a great seminar at Rowe! The weekend started out with discussion about theory, personal reflection on pets and some simple training ideas. The rest of the weekend was a mixture of hands-on training in the field, as well as more in-depth information on Kevin’s theory.

The Spring Rowe Seminar was held May 1st – May 3rd at the Rowe Camp and Conference Center in Massachusetts. Kevin holds seminars at the Rowe Center twice a year. Visit www.rowecenter.org for more information about the Center, and for updates on the upcoming Fall seminar.

Books about Natural Dog Training by Kevin Behan

In Your Dog Is Your Mirror, dog trainer Kevin Behan proposes a radical new model for understanding canine behavior: a dog’s behavior and emotion, indeed its very cognition, are driven by our emotion. The dog doesn’t respond to what the owner thinks, says, or does; it responds to what the owner feels. And in this way, dogs can actually put people back in touch with their own emotions. Behan demonstrates that dogs and humans are connected more profoundly than has ever been imagined — by heart — and that this approach to dog cognition can help us understand many of dogs’ most inscrutable behaviors. This groundbreaking, provocative book opens the door to a whole new understanding between species, and perhaps a whole new understanding of ourselves.
  Natural Dog Training is about how dogs see the world and what this means in regards to training. The first part of this book presents a new theory for the social behavior of canines, featuring the drive to hunt, not the pack instincts, as seminal to canine behavior. The second part reinterprets how dogs actually learn. The third section presents exercises and handling techniques to put this theory into practice with a puppy. The final section sets forth a training program with a special emphasis on coming when called.
