Low-Drive Dogs

Games for Low-Drive Dogs Webinar Instructor Michele Ellertson When it comes to low-drive dogs, we need to convince them they are strong, powerful and able to successfully play the sniffing game. Learn how to do this in this webinar!

With softer dogs, we need to build them up and make them feel strong, powerful and to believe that they can indeed successfully play the sniffing game. It’s a labor of patience and love to instill in these dogs the fire! But done carefully, and slowly over time, the lower drive dog can believe in themselves as much as you believe in them! We do this through low-pressure games designed to make good dogs bad!

It really helped me recognize the types of behaviors my dog exhibits during searches that show she is overwhelmed that contribute to her low drive. It also gave me tools to work on supporting her to help build motivation.

Leah M. Games for Low-Drive Dogs Webinar

I love Michelle's energy, video examples, and especially examples of "going too far". As a CNWI I really needed this webinar to be able help my students with low-drive dogs and to remind us all that behaviors are communication. I love the idea of taking the time outside of NW to figure out what brings a dog joy!

I could have listened to Michelle for another hour! lol So much great information! I appreciated her building the background information for what a low drive vs high drive dog are in comparison to one another. Loved the easy to understand explanations and videos showing the games with various dogs. I so appreciated how she demonstrated moving to far with the box and visible tin. Then how to correct.
