ADB-SG

The SG certificate is to learn how to apply ADB in real live through our Skill Week.
Skill Week is entirely customized to your professional or personal needs.
Currently, we offer three ways to take Skill Week:

  1. If you are located in the Southwest, Scott Stauffer can travel to your location where he will coach you with your clients or your own dog(s).

  2. You can also opt to spend a week at our homebase in south-central Colorado and combine Skill Week with vacation-style sightseeing and exploration.

  3. Last but not least, Zoom is a great medium for Skill Week when travel might not be an option.

K9 Life Coaching/Affective Dog Behavior disclaimer: Affective Dog Behavior is a combination program founded of experience, skills and Dr. Jaak Panksepp's Affective Neuroscience as well as Social Neuroscience and various research in general Neuroscience. While your ADB Team is knowledgeable in the topics covered within the program, the Team continually adds new knowledge through their efforts in translating ongoing modern (neuro)science into "dog". That said, please understand that the ADB Team is not a team of scientists but a team of canine professionals who with a keen interest in the various branches of Neuroscience. 
Our mission: In the scope of Affective Dog Behavior, it is our mission to (1) collect and translate into "dog" research that will help us better understand and connect with dogs, (2) make said research and translations easily accessible, understandable and relatable to non-professional and professional dog guardians, (3) embrace and follow a community and connection-oriented approach where social equity, diversity and equality are not only encouraged but a foundational pillar, (4) continue on our path of self-education and our commitment to providing reliable up-to-date information to our members ad non-member readers.
