Book Review #11: Lads Before the Wind by Karen Pryor

Lads Before the Wind" has helped me make the biggest leap I feel I have made so far in understanding animal training.  I have studied the mechanics.  I have practiced and read.  I have great teachers.  I get results.  I feel like now it has all come together and I understand a whole lot more.

My first educational program presented with Grace - graciously but not gracefully

In addition to studying with the best animal trainners I can find, I need to go study with someone who does wild-animal shows.
