ETHICAL DOG TRAINER
Author - Jim Barry - Publisher - Dogwise / Corpus
Dog trainers face ethical decisions all the time. Do I keep working with a client when it is obvious that the owner will not keep up the training program to the detriment of the dog? Should I accept payments from other dog professionals to whom I refer clients? What is the proper way to interact with other dog trainers who use methods I disagree with?
Author Jim Barry dives deep into the ethical questions frequently faced by dog trainers and offers up a systematic approach to helping trainers resolve difficult dilemmas.

World’s leading canine experts meet at
International Symposium on the Dog
Luminaries from the canine world descended upon London this week as the Kennel Club hosted its first International Symposium on the Dog at its headquarters in Piccadilly.
The two day event, held on 6th and 7th July, was run with the support of the American Kennel Club, Canadian Kennel Club, Fédération Cynologique Internationale and Societé Centrale Canine.
Attendees heard 15 guest speakers present to the gathering of over 50 delegates on a wide range of subjects including canine welfare through genetic testing, health screening and breed programmes,
as well as anti-social behaviour with dogs.
Other topics covered were freedom offered through dog ownership, stray dogs in the UK,
the therapeutic aspects of dogs and breed standards in France, Canada and the USA.
Representatives from the Animal Health Trust, Battersea Dogs and Cats Home,
the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons and Guide Dogs for the Blind Association amongst others met with delegates from kennel clubs from several overseas countries including Barbados, Estonia, the USA, France and Canada
to exchange ideas and forge important links.
Caroline Kisko, Secretary of the Kennel Club, said: “We were absolutely delighted to have had such a large attendance from around the world for what turned out to be a very enlightening couple of days.
“The exchange of ideas from all corners of the globe is vital for ensuring the continued health and welfare of dogs in all countries, and the relationships we have developed with delegates and the information that everyone concerned went away with is invaluable to further the knowledge of dog issues.”

More 4 to broadcast Crufts 2010

More 4, a division of Channel 4, has signed a deal with the Kennel Club, organiser of DFS Crufts, to broadcast the event for the first time in 2010.
More 4 will bring a fresh perspective to coverage of Crufts while retaining the show’s popular highlights including the stories of ‘hero dogs’ in the Friends for Life competition and the live award of ‘Best in Show’. The programming will also provide a high profile platform to inform the public about issues of health and welfare in pedigree dog breeding.
Coverage of the four-day dog show will be broadcast between 11 – 14 March with an hour long programme from Thursday to Saturday and a two-hour special on Sunday.
Hamish Mykura, Head of More 4, said: “More 4’s coverage will enable dog lovers to see all the Crufts favourites, with fresh and stylish coverage that will give the show a More 4 twist. Crufts has a long-standing place in British broadcasting, and people who watch it want to know that the dogs are, above all, happy and healthy. Our programmes will place a particular emphasis on dog welfare issues, reflecting different points of view.”
Caroline Kisko, Kennel Club Communications Director, said: “Dogs and dog lovers look forward to Crufts every year and we are delighted that More 4’s coverage will give them the opportunity to celebrate with us the special and unique bond between dogs and their owners. The programme will not only show a range of the fun competitions and events that celebrate the diverse role that dogs play in society, but will also give puppy buyers the opportunity to learn how to choose, train and care of their dog, throughout its life.

The coverage will be produced by Sunset and Vine.
