[NAGDU] July Guide Dog Vook Club guest Graham Buck

[Ann Chiappetta]

Greetings from the Guide Dog Book Club Team!

 

We are pleased to announce that the next book club discussion is scheduled
for Wednesday, July 17 at 7:00 p.m. Eastern. For this meeting, the Club is
thrilled to welcome Graham Buck, professional dog trainer, former guide dog
mobility instructor, and published author. He is the author of Buck's Best
Dogs: Private Dog Training and Socialization Groups: a Comprehensive
Approach to Training Your Dog. Graham is a devoted friend of the guide dog
community, and we hope you'll join us for this discussion! 

 

Below are Zoom details for the meeting on July 17 and some additional info.
Everyone is welcome to join. Whether you're a graduate, puppy raiser, or
friend of the guide dog community, we'd love for you to drop by.

About the book from Graham:  

"This book began by providing documents on different areas of dog training,
behavior, and management to my clients. As I started to put documents
together, I soon realized that a book was beginning to take shape. This is a
starting point of building dog understanding with people and their dogs."

 

The book is available from Amazon and Kindel:

About Graham Buck

Graham is a professional dog trainer with a comprehensive approach based on
the east end of Long Island, New York. He grew up with dogs and has trained
them for 36 years. Many of you may know Graham from his 31 years at Guiding
Eyes for the Blind training guide dogs and their handlers. During that time
he came to truly appreciate the need for consistency and repetition in order
to develop reliable dog behaviors. 

 

As Graham says, "When training guide dogs it is very important to be able to
proof the shaped behaviors in real life scenarios." He currently helps
people and their pet dogs accomplish their goals through his extensive
training efforts. At the meeting, we'll also chat about an online library of
descriptive audio training files developed by Graham. You can read more
