Course Details
Bark bark, whine, whine, stalky sticky prey freezing. Did you have any of those behaviors when you trained last? What about when you went to a new place? Or trialed? I mean, my puppy comes out of the crate screaming in anticipation about all the fun things he gets!
I don’t know about you, but I look at other dogs heeling happily around without vocalization with envy! I’ve got German Shepherds and that means heeling without sounds coming out of lips is a thing of beauty. Something all we GSD owners strive for and rarely attain. That means that on my 8th GSD, I am basically an EXPERT on high arousal.
In this presentation, we’ll go through what high arousal looks like and what behaviors are attached to that label. Then we’ll cover some steps on how to help your dog come back to their brain, how to get less vocalization and stalky prey behaviors and what to do about it!

About the Presenter:
Shade Whitesel (she/her) has been training and competing in dog sports since she was a kid. Always curious in how dogs learn, she has successfully competed in IGP/IPO/Schutzhund, AKC obedience and French Ring. Along the way, Shade has received a perfect score in the IPO tracking phase on two separate dogs, a perfect score in IPO obedience, placements at Nationals and Regionals in Schutzhund and numerous 1st in class in AKC. Shade currently competes with Talic, who just started his AKC obedience career with 3 High in Trials on his way to his CD.
Though Shade is owned by highly motivated working line German Shepherds and is known for her toy skills and marker cues classes, she especially enjoys teaching foundation skills to all manner of dogs and their people. Good training and learning starts at the beginning.
What started out as an experiment — competing at the National level in IPO without the use of an e-collar — has now turned into a firm commitment to the positive method, and the desire to teach other trainers and dogs how to be successful in all the things with as little aversives as possible.
