(Lili Chin and I at the book signing)
I did two talks on BAT at the US conference for positive dog training hosted by the APDT. There was a 90 minute talk with videos and a 3 hour talk with live demo. I think both turned out well! Dogwise said they sold all but 4 of the BAT books they brought, and lots of awesome trainers came up to tell me they enjoyed the talk, so I think I did ok getting the word out about BAT.
There were a lot of people interested in participating in the research study on BAT, which will begin in earnest early next year. I’ll post info here soon.
I now get November and December off from speaking, then a full 2012 series of seminars (see many of them on the right of this page). Happy BATting!
Grisha, your presentations were a huge highlight of the APDT conference. I am so impressed with how well BAT works, for dogs as well as people. It’s a dynamic exercise in confidence building at both ends of the leash, and deserves a solid place in dog trainers’ array of training tools. It was also great to meet you after the Q&A for book signing~both Jennifer and I are thrilled to have copies hot off the press!
Best,
Lynn
Thank you so much! What a lovely, eloquent thing to say. You made my day!
