| Connor, Harriet, Laura, and Evan on the PAWS Atlanta walking trail. |
We love Evan, and we want him to be a happy and confident guy. We know that we need to try a variety of things with him to ensure that he has the best possible life. Another thing we try to integrate into his training regime is the Tellington Touch. This is a way of using touch, balance, and massage to help calm stressed dogs and to develop a bond between the handler and the dog. During training, we gently move Evan's tail, rub his ears, and pet him in slow circular motions. Evan loves it, and it really does work! For a very basic overview you can check out this website (http://www.pawsnlearn.com/basic.htm), do a quick google search, and/or read the book The Tellington TTouch : A Revolutionary Natural Method to Train and Care for Your Favorite Animal by Linda Tellington-Jones.
