Pet Partners – Why Force-Free Training Matters in AAI
Date/Time
Date(s) - Wed, Feb 12, 2025 MST
11:00 am - 12:00 pm
Did you know the AAI Code of Ethics requires that therapy and facility dogs be trained exclusively with positive reinforcement? This standard not only protects animal welfare but also allows our canine partners to make free choices and supports handlers in advocating effectively for them. Using outdated or forceful training methods risks burnout, robotic behavior, or even critical incidents. Join us for an in-depth discussion on the significance of force-free training, and explore real-world scenarios that bring this essential philosophy to life.
