Review: Crate Games with Susan Garrett

I'm always on the lookout for new educational tools for animal trainers and I think we've found a winner with Susan Garrett's fun and effective approach to crate training. Garrett's method is not only aimed at making your dog tolerate being in its crate, it is designed to make going to its crate REINFORCING for your dog! I have a friend who owns a dog daycare and, after watching Susan Garrett's new DVD Crate Games for Motivation and Control, she'll be trying this with all of their daycare dogs. If you are a dog trainer looking for a new way to train dogs to kennel up or looking for some fun and inspirational training methods to add to your toolbox, I highly recommend picking up a copy of Susan Garrett's newest DVD! And, if you're a parrot trainer and you want some creative ideas for teaching parrots to return to their crates, you'll find a lot of useful and new ideas in the video too. You'd need to modify them to be appropriate for parrots, but I could see this method working with parrots and many other small animals!
