Hello NePoPo®ers,
Been getting asked about what to expect during the week at New Gold. Our goal is to expose you to the ingredients of NePoPo® as it relates to the pet dog industry AND the working dog industry. Knowing the linking systems between typical pet obedience behaviors, detection, tracking/trailing and even bite work will give you a more three dimensional grasp of the training system and philosophy! Understanding aggression helps with reactivity in pets. Understanding how to power up a working dog helps you understand how to stabilize a service dog Etc etc.
