Gary Wilkes worked for eight years in animal shelters in every capacity: poop scooper, shelter manager, euthanasia tech, dog catcher, humane investigator, educator and board member of one of the largest shelters in the country. He has worked for the last seventeen years offering behavior services by veterinary referral including the position of staff behaviorist for a veterinary neurological clinic. He has physically handled tens of thousands of animals over more than 25 years and a goodly number of those animals were certified whackos.

Gary is most known for developing the practical side of clicker training. Wilkes' methods and techniques are, above all, effective. This isn't the "bribe the doggie with a biscuit" or a "swing them around by the neck" sort of thing. Contrary to the whimsical rules of modern dog training, you don't need to be abusive or permissive to teach an animal that there are rules that need to be obeyed. This is a simple, effective way to predict and control behavior and any professional will benefit from learning these methods.

How To Help Fix
A Client's Pet

Gary Wilkes

Learning to stop unacceptable behavior is the key to keeping dogs alive. Many modern methods for behavioral control focus on teaching an alternate behavior and gradual desensitization. By the time those things can possibly work, the dog has been at the pound for a couple of days - where it is unlikely that he or she has survived the experience. Most dog owners seek help at the last minute - and last minute solutions are the only ones that are going to save the dog's life. This presentation will describe what it takes to stop the most common canine catastrophes in an effective, safe and proactive manner. Don't miss it - you won't find this information anywhere else.
