Discipline Irrelevance

The skills you will learn in Will Skill speak only to HOW the animal learns, not WHAT the animal learns. From lateral dressage work to reining stops, and from trail obstacles to mounted police work, the learning pathway is what's important. From sniffer dogs to sporting dogs to agility, motivational awareness is key. From working rats, to working lobsters, insects, octopi, reptiles, and fish... our partnerships with other individuals teaches us new perspective about our world.
