Raising Canine Presents

The Brave New World

of Dog Training
 

Roger Abrantes

Live in Austin, Texas

May 23-24, 2009

This new talk and seminar are the result of a thorough research project conducted at the Etologisk Institute in Denmark under the supervision of the speaker. The discoveries made by the Abrantes’ team tested all old principles and theories, and uncovered new revolutionary principles. These discoveries enable dog owners to train their dogs more efficiently and effortlessly—actually, the dogs train them selves! 

Roger Abrantes describes and illustrates all techniques, and explains the basic concepts of learning theory, as well as the new concepts his team introduced. To this purpose, the speaker uses multimedia presentations, and an artificially intelligent computer program simulating the application of learning theory. This talk and seminar deal with complex issues; however, and as usual, Dr Abrantes presents the topics in plain English. Talk and seminar are therefore suited to both the experienced and knowledgeable trainer as well as the novice dog owner.
