Course Details
Reactive behavior in dogs is one of the trendier topics in dog training, not surprisingly considering the incidence of the issue.
There are different reasons a dog may behave in ways we understand as being extreme or exaggerated, most of us agree that these dogs are not really having fun in these situations.
Plenty of effort is placed on creating behavior modification programs that aim to desensitize dogs to the triggers that lead to reactive behavior.
Are these programs being successful or have you notice that most people spend months or even years with little or inconsistent results at best?
This webinar will help you find that missing piece that might be stalling your progress through a holistic approach to reactivity. We will work on the things that you didn't know are likely influencing your dog's behavior.
Most of these things are at first glance not related to reactive behavior because they can be worked away from triggers, I will share with you my tried and tested protocol aimed to not only build skills but also develop resilience and fulfill basic needs to maintain our dogs open to challenges and learning.

About the Presenter:
Dante Camacho is a professional dog trainer, international presenter and has been involved in dog training since 1998, this quickly became a passion and took him to a never-ending adventure (including leaving college to become a full time dog trainer) of constant learning.
He was one of the first to introduce the use of clicker training in Brazil, "I was fascinated by the tool and all that I was able to accomplish with my dogs very early in my career", and went on to work with dog owners privately for the first years of his dog training career.
In 2000 he fell in love with dog sports and started teaching his own dogs in agility and freestyle. In agility he became a reference in positive training in Brazil, teaching seminars, being cited in magazines, websites and numerous TV appearances. he ended up representing Brazil in 4 FCI Agility World Championships as well as 2 European Open and 2 America’s & Caribbean.
In freestyle (Dog Dancing) he performed initially in Brazil, first in dog shows but soon in TV shows and fairs, he became a member of the Superdogs Team (Canada) and performed his Dancing routines in shows throughout the country and also in the USA.
Not only a performer, he eventually became a member of the production team of the shows, helping scout and train people and dogs to perform under the lights. The incredibly popular shows were seen by over 1 million people every year.
Dante was part of the Canadian Agility Team (European Open and Americas & Caribbean ) and also coached the Canadian Agility National Team, sharing his experience as a competitor and trainer.
He has also competed and titled dogs in DockDiving and Rally-O, and in recent years has been dabbling with FCI Obedience and ScentWork.
His experience teaching other species started in 2013 at a Chicken Camp with Terry Ryan and since then he's hosted a number of camps as TA and also as an instructor.
For the last year he's worked as a volunteer at a local Zoo in his town in Brazil, together with the Zoo administration he's developed training plans to enrich and benefit the lives of species that until then had lived in precarious conditions.
Dante is an invited teacher at Rio Preto University where he teaches dog behaviour and training for the post graduate degree course on "Animal Behaviour and Well being". He's an online instructor with several online courses (all in Portuguese so far, sorry....) available on his platform with over a thousand students, ranging from professional dog trainers to committed dog owners. He's also developing his own certification course for dog trainers in his country.
