ABOUT CHRIS:
Chris Bach is a dog trainer who has dedicated
the last 35+ years of her life to learning about the true nature of
dogs, and about how they learn. She is a pioneer in her effort to
help dog owners stop feeling that they must battle with their dogs
for control. She has proven that such conflict is inefficient and
more importantly, unnecessary. She has developed a unique, friendly,
yet very effective approach to training called THE THIRD
WAY.
Chris
presents obedience seminars across the United States and Canada, in
addition to writing articles for “Front & Finish” dog training
magazine. Chris has been invited to speak at the Association of Pet
Dog Trainers, and has been asked to join the top fifty dog trainers
in the country on an American Humane Association committee. This
committee was brought together to build a code of ethics and
guidelines for logical and ethical dog training techniques. She is
currently writing a book on her exclusive method of dog training
called THE THIRD WAY. Visit
