Hey there everyone! I have the opportunity to attend a local Sylvia Bishop seminar in the near future. From what I can find online, she seems to be very highly respected as well as very successful in the world of obedience. The only thing I can't seem to find out about her is what, exactly, her training philosophy is. As a recent cross-over trainer, I would hate to show up and find out that hers is a method that relies strongly on compulsion.... especially as I would prefer to sign up for a working spot (I'm very much a hands-on learner).
I know this forum has a strong showing of people who use marker training and other positive reinforcement based techniques.... so figured it would be a good place to throw this out there for opinions. Thanks for any info you can provide!
