Description
A retired college professor, Risë Quay, has been training dogs longer than she would like to admit! She grew up with Rough Collies, Standard Poodles, and Afghan Hounds. As a young adult, she titled Great Danes, Basenjis, and Standard Schnauzers in obedience, earning high in trial awards with the Danes and Schnauzers. Risë has bred Great Danes and Standard Schnauzers, breeding both best in show and high in trial dogs (agility and obedience), MACH, OTCH, and TDX, as well as many specialty winners. She has handled dogs from the Working, Terrier, and Herding group to specialty and group-level awards. Let’s not forget agility! She has just retired CH Uhlan Weesbad Duty Free CDX, RE, AX, AXJ…and will be starting a new dog in November while "Franke" works in Utility. Risë uses the Greg Derrett system of handling. If you are a person who has trouble keeping up with a dog, or want to have the most fun you can even imagine with agility, this system is for you! Risë has studied with and continues to train with Stephanie Morris (OR) and Maureen Strenfel (CA). Over the years, Risë has seen training evolve from “corrections” to positive training—and especially likes to utilize clicker work with young and beginning dogs. When used correctly, the clicker is a great tool to teach dogs quickly what behaviors people appreciate. A student of dog behavior for many years, she enjoys training because of the rapport it creates between dog and handler. Her goal as both a breeder and trainer is to pass on the joy she receives daily from her own dogs…and can give back to the dogs with positive and consistent interaction and play responses.
