RE: Radio Program on Pets to Air Sundays at 2 PM

[Guest guest]

The show is by Dr. Patricia McConnell, a Certified Applied Animal

Behaviorist. She is one of my heroes! She is internationally known and is

the author of a number of books on humane dog (and cat) behavior and

training.

 

I have been to two of her seminars and she is wonderful. She only promotes

positive methods of training dogs. Her latest book is called " For the Love

of a Dog: Understanding Emotion in You and Your Best Friend. " I have both

the book and the audio version of the book and attended a seminar in

February of this year on this topic. She discusses a lot of the biological

basis for emotion.

 

You can find her website at www.dogsbestfriendtraining.com and you can find

out about her show at http://www.wpr.org/pets/. This show has aired on

other NPR stations across the country for some time now. It will be

featured regularly this fall at 1:00 pm on Fridays on KERA 90.1 starting

Sept 7.

 

Let's remember to let KERA know how much we appreciate this addition to

their programming, too.
