Industry Reviews

"In this book, Barbara does an excellent job translating the training of chickens in a classroom to training dogs to herd sheep in the field by describing the stepwise introduction of novice dogs to the various skills the dogs will need to become proficient herders. All in all, she has written an introductory 'How to' I believe would be useful to trainers new to herding, as well as to veteran trainers looking for new ideas, and maybe even a different training philosophy."

BOB BAILEY (Hon PhD)

"Positive Herding 101 is a wonderful addition to the working dog world. In traditional training, it's common to take big leaps, think: leaping from 2+2=4 to long division, with nothing in between. In positive training, the goal is to set achievable criteria so you don't have to give aversive feedback and Buchmayer is acutely aware of this. She has the experience and knowledge of both herding and the science of how animals learn to teach others these important skills."

SUSAN SMITH, co-author, Positive Gun Dog
