If you are interested in attending the Sam Malatesta Seminar March 1 &

www.whosthedog.net, then go to
schedule to get more information and sign up.
Sam Malatesta, a master dog trainer with over 25 years of experience and
an international reputation, is in demand in both the United States and
Canada. Sam began donating his time in an effort to rehabilitate and re-home
dogs for the Toronto Humane Society and the Ohio Medina County SPCA. His
goal is to reduce euthanasia by helping problem dogs regain their trust in
humanity while helping humans regain their respect for dogs.
This seminar, a fundraiser for Animal Protection Association (a not for
profit rescue organization located
in Jeffersonville, Indiana), will teach dog owners and rescue volunteers how
to achieve the ultimate humancanine bond and train without harsh
corrections, prong or choke collars, or clickers. Sam’s unique gift of being
a natural teacher makes learning easy, interesting, and fun for dogs and
humans alike.
The Animal Protection Association (APA) is located at
702 E. 11th St., Jeffersonville, Indiana. APA has been in existence
over eight years now and with a
lot of hard work from our volunteers we are very proud that we have placed
over 2,500 cats, dogs, birds and even rabbits in loving homes.
We still, however, have many dogs and cats that needs good homes.
