From the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review online: When Massachusetts dog trainer Emma Parsons taught a not-so-old dog a new trick, she learned a big lesson herself.

The workshop is Parsons' first appearance in this area and is one of a growing number of workshops she has been doing since her book, Click to Calm [1], came out in December. "I just wanted to reinforce the absence of behavior [1]," Parsons says about the twist she put on the well-known process known as "clicker training [1]." Read the full article [2]
