Akenhead, Ed.D 45 James E. Akenhead, Ed.D 46 Brenda Aloff Brenda's childhood love was training and showing horses. She has taken this knowledge about working with large, po- tentially dangerous animals and applied it to training dogs with problem behaviours. Unsatisfied with the results of "traditional" dog training, Brenda studied marine mammal training, exotic animal training and learned about wolf pack behaviour. Puzzled by the lack of answers in dog lore and literature, and because traditional dog training techniques did not offer the tools needed to deal with aggressive dogs, in particular, she became an expert in behaviour modification and positive reinforcement. Published works: Get Connected with your Dog; Canine Body Language, a Photographic Guide; Aggression in Dogs: Practical Management Prevention & Behaviour Modification; Positive Reinforcement: Training Dogs in the Real World; Brenda Aloff’s-Fundamentals: Foundation Training for Every Dog DVD 47 Brenda Aloff Negative Reinforcement Is Not An Evil Word In my work with the most difficult dogs I found myself desperately looking for more tools. In my work with a horse that kept trying to murder me on a regular basis, I discovered many techniques, that are sound and in line with learning the- ory that increased my effectiveness - and my safety - with him one hundred fold. In light of this, I started trying some of the techniques with my problem dog patients. The results were quite impressive. Curiosity then drove me to develop a series of exercises that used "pressure" to work with my canine patients. One of the things that I loved about this is that, in the process of doing these exercises, my human clients discovered much about themselves and the way they interacted with their dogs while doing the exercises, too. I thought a lot about how dogs perceive personal space and how humans generally do not address the issue of the "space between us." I worked to develop exercises that addressed the canine's point of view about these conversations and a way to get the right message across to the dog. I wanted to find effective and yet humane ways to "correct" a dog. During this process my goal was to explain to people how to improve the relationship with their dog and how to "support" the dog in ways the dog would be able to understand and appreciate. It was requisite to me that all of these techniques and ways of thinking would be able to mesh with the Positive Reinforcement training that I already know and love to do. This journey has made me more aware of what is important to the dogs that we are training, and how our training goes awry. Teaching dogs, in a systematic and deliberate way, to cope with stress and to include you in their decision making process is what I would consider the basic skill sets. When these items are in place, teaching specific behaviours, such as weave poles or heeling becomes a very simple task that goes along relatively quickly. This lecture will include film clips of meshing negative reinforcement with negative punishers and positive reinforce- ment to illustrate the uses of pressure in dog training. I am so sorry I only have 50 minutes, because in this way, I can only introduce you briefly to the efficacy and gentleness that these techniques can embody when they are deliberately and thoughtfully applied. 48 Brenda Aloff Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed Something Blue. Core Strength, Stretching and Back Health In Equines and Their Use In Rehabilitation I have always tried very hard to take excellent care of my animals and I pride myself on my husbandry skills. I ride and compete in Dressage and in our world much emphasis is placed on the horses back. I was always careful that my horses had carefully fitted saddles and that they regularly see a chiropractor. I felt rather righteous about the fact that I was do- ing all the “proper” and politically correct things. I already knew the close connection between core strength and back health and its direct effect on comfort for the horse and the rider. (Riding on a soft, “lifted” back is good for both of us!) However, it was when my gelding had a pasture injury requiring extensive rehabilitation (still on-going 11 months later) that brought home to me how crucial this pack- age is to the very soundness of our animals. The New: I am unbelievably fortunate to live within 2 hours of Michigan State University, therefore have direct access to the vast knowledge and research that goes on at the McPhail Equine Center there. Thanks to them (specifically Nicole Rombach and Narelle Stubbs) I was able to draw on the latest technology in equine biomechanics and movement. This includes a variety of core strengthening and stretching exercises to increase range of motion. The Old: I didn’t stop there, because I am incredibly interested in the history of Classical Dressage (differs slightly from the philosophy of competitive dressage) and work in hand. (Not such a hot topic. Very few people do the classical work in hand.) The old Masters knew their stuff! de la Gueriniere published in 1733 the use of the Shoulder-In, which is an incredible strengthening and gymnasticizing technique that helps teach the horse to carry more weight on the hindquar- ters. Then there is “Goat on the Mountaintop”, another exercise used to prepare a horse for piaffe and the deep collection work of pessade and levade. Goat on the Mountaintop is an amazing stretch for the back and a core strengthening exer- cise.

Abstract In this thesis we create a method to allow dogs and humans to interact over the Internet. In particular, we generalize an established dog training technique known as "clicker-training" such that the remote and co-located interactions are reported by dog owners to be similar. In the process of creating this computer-mediated interaction, we learn what it means to design an interface for a creature with very different sensory modalities than humans. Dogs are not "furry humans" but entirely different creatures with very different perceptual, motor, and cognitive systems than humans. This work is significant because by systematically applying HCI design principles to non-humans, we include animals in the HCI community.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 Abstract As popular music eclipsed Hollywood as the most powerful mode of seduction of Western youth, rock-stars erupted through the counter-culture as potent political figures. Following its sensational arrival, the politics of popular musical culture has however moved from the shared experience of protest movements and picket lines and to an individualised and celebrified consumerist experience. As a consequence what emerged, as a controversial and subversive phenomenon, has been de-fanged and transformed into a mechanism of establishment support.

  • The Abcs of Living with Dogs
    The ABCs of Living with Dogs Care and training resources About Best Friends Animal Society Best Friends Animal Society is a leading national animal welfare orga- nization dedicated to ending the killing of dogs and cats in America’s shelters. In addition to running lifesaving programs in partnership with more than 2,500 animal welfare groups across the country, Best Friends has regional centers in New York City, Los Angeles, Atlanta and Salt Lake City, and operates the nation’s largest no-kill sanctuary for companion animals. Founded in 1984, Best Friends is a pioneer in the no-kill movement and has helped reduce the number of animals killed in shelters na- tionwide from 17 million per year to about 800,000. That means there are still nearly 2,200 dogs and cats killed every day in shelters, just because they don’t have safe places to call home. We are determined to bring the country to no-kill by the year 2025. Working collabora- tively with shelters, rescue groups, other organizations and you, we will end the killing and Save Them All. For more information, visit bestfriends.org. About Sherry Woodard Sherry Woodard, Best Friends’ resident animal behavior consultant, wrote many of the resources in this manual. As an expert in animal train- ing, behavior and care, she develops resources, provides consulting ser- vices, leads workshops and speaks nationwide to promote animal welfare.

The Department of Justice estimates that American police officers shoot 10,000 pet dogs in the line of duty each year. It is impossible to ascertain a reliable number, however, because most law enforcement agencies do not maintain accurate records of animal killings. The tally may be substantially higher, and some suggest it could reach six figures. Deferring to officers’ judgment when they reasonably fear for human safety is sound policy because they regularly must make split-second, life-or-death decisions in highly stressful situations; but many pet shootings occur when officers mistake the behavior of a friendly, curious dog for aggression. Further, some animals have been deliberately shot and killed under questionable circumstances, including through doors or while tied, running away, or hiding.

  • Pop Goes to War, 2001–2004:U.S. Popular Music After 9/11
    1 POP GOES TO WAR, 2001–2004: U.S. POpuLAR MUSIC AFTER 9/11 Reebee Garofalo Mainstream popular music in the United States has always provided a window on national politics. The middle-of-the-road sensibilities of Tin Pan Alley told us as much about societal values in the early twentieth century as rock and roll’s spirit of rebellion did in the fifties and sixties. To cite but one prominent example, as the war in Vietnam escalated in the mid-sixties, popular music provided something of a national referendum on our involvement. In 1965 and 1966, while the nation was sorely divided on the issue, both the antiwar “Eve of Destruction” by Barry McGuire and the military ode “The Ballad of the Green Berets” by Barry Sadler hit number one within months of each other. As the war dragged on through the Nixon years and military victory seemed more and more remote, however, public opinion began to turn against the war, and popular music became more and more clearly identified with the antiwar movement. Popular music—and in particular, rock—has nonetheless served con- tradictory functions in American history. While popular music fueled opposition to the Vietnam War at home, alienated, homesick GIs eased the passage of time by blaring those same sounds on the battlefield (as films such as Apocalypse Now and Good Morning, Vietnam accurately document). Rock thus was not only the soundtrack of domestic opposition to the war; it was the soundtrack of the war itself. This phenomenon was not wasted on military strategists, who soon began routinely incorporat- ing music into U.S.

  • KFOR Chronicle: Health & Fitness Get in Shape with Major Laguna
    [Commentary] New in the KFOR Chronicle: Health & Fitness Get in Shape with Major Laguna I have always been very fond of sports. Horse riding, basketball, swimming, skiing, roller skate hockey are some of those I have prac- ticed and competed. My favorite hobbies are travel, reading, and cooking. Although I work in Madrid I have a flat in Alicante where I spend my holidays under our beloved Spanish sun. My interest in fitness & well-being was born a long time ago. As a young captain, I had to take care of troops physical condition as a part of their training. During this appointment I developed an interest in Anatomy, Physiology and Physical well being and training methods. I then attended a Physiotherapist one-year-course. These studies facil- itated the transformation of my hobby to a new profession. It was then a natural progression to continue my studies in Osteopathy at Madrid University. I should also say that most of my family members as well as of my best friends are doctors so they have been a great help for me. My post in KFOR is JIOC (Joint Intelligence Operational Center). JIOC mission is to fuse all-source intel- ligence to develop intelligence-driven multi-agency operations against High Value Targets (HVT's). My international background started in 1996 as a member of the OSCE in Chechnya where I stayed for 6 months in some sort of a Peace Keeping Operation. I was then assigned to the Spanish Verification Unit where I had the opportunity to work in many different environments and to get to know other approaches for 4 years.
