Emily Larlham runs the dog training business Dogmantics Dog Training in San Diego, California. She is known around the world for her popular Youtube Channel ‘Kikopup’ where she has posted over 200 free in-depth dog training tutorials. She believes that by putting out free training tutorials that don’t involve any forms of physical or psychological intimidation, it will not only effect how people t

reat animals but also how people treat other human beings. Emily began her training career as an animal care-giver in a shelter about 12 years ago where she met her dog training mentor Kyle Rayon. After many years study, learning from both human and animal mentors, she began her own business. She combines her artistic background and training skills to invent creative, fast and reliable ways to solve problem behaviors as well as train complex behaviors and tricks. Emily has been invited to conduct seminars on her techniques for training dogs without intimidation in North and South America, Europe, Africa, Australia and Asia.

Bliss has started to shake his head to tell me that he doesn’t want to do the training that we’re doing anymore. He’s done it multiple times. And it’s usually when the position is also similar to a down. So in this occasion, I thought he was just confused because he was laying down, but instead he decided to shake his head to tell me he had had enough of the bowing. His way of telling me he’s had enough is usually laying down, but now he started to shake his head when I’m not getting the memo. This is something that splash my border collie who passed did. One day when I was in New York and I was asking splash to go to the toilet in a gutter instead of on grass and she shook her head so much that someone passing by actually screamed and laughed at her because they couldn’t believe the dog was saying no when I said go p*e. When Epic doesn’t want to train a specific behavior she will jump on a chair, and cloud and halo will move towards the door to leave, wish turns her head away. It rarely happens with my dogs so I finally got it on video.
