This two-day seminar is packed with information on the joys and successes of positive-reinforcement training. Leslie will
share training tips and techniques that will turn training theory into reality. This seminar will be of interest to trainers,
pet professionals, shelter workers, rescue organizations, and dog owners who would like to learn more about the effective
use of positive reinforcement as a training, teaching, and management tool.
This seminar will be part lecture and part workshop. There will be ample opportunities to try things with your own dog,
especially on day two.

In the mid-nineties, after being introduced to Ted Turner, the head trainer of Sea World of Ohio, Leslie developed a training
program for family dogs based on the training done at Sea World. Her busy training center has been the perfect location for
like-minded trainers to experiment with and practice positive reinforcement techniques.
Leslie has a degree in education and has been teaching classes since 1973. She is also a APDT member. She has been involved
with animals her entire life and has bred and shown numerous Afghan breed champions and performance dogs. She has trained
two of her Afghan Hounds to the Utility Dog title. She continues to compete with her own dogs, which include Afghan Hounds,
Whippets and Standard Poodles and she has recently caught the very contagious agility bug.
Leslie instructs both family and competition classes and has an active schedule of private lessons and behavioral consults.
Leslie oversees over 50 classes a week and a staff of more than 30 instructors and assistants.
She is a member of the Association of Pet Dog Trainers and this past year was honored as a keynote speaker at their annual
convention. She is a sought-after seminar speaker and was featured along with Ted Turner and Patty Ruzzo in the popular training
video, The Power of Positive Training and its follow up, Proof Positive. Her booklets, Management Magic, The Really Reliable
Recall and her Family Dog workbook are used in training classes across the country.
