A very interesting and informative course, delivered expertly by David. Goes beyond the surface level stuff and into the science behind it, a must for any serious person wanting to know more in depth knowledge and expertise about dogs and their behaviour.

So much to think about and really valuable information to take away from this course. Highly recommend to anyone who owns or working with working breeds particularly. I booked onto this course initially and saw a further 2 at the same location on the same weekend and decided to book them all together. They all linked really well and Dave did an excellent job at presenting all of the foundation science and information. Really enjoyed this course and meeting other trainers

Absolutely brilliant, Dave was patient and calm as usual when explaining this complex subject. I feel like I have learned so much and it is inspiring me to perhaps book my 4 day practical instructor training sooner rather than later!! Thanks again for another brilliant ZOOM course.

Great course that I thoroughly enjoyed. A lot of quite technical neurological background at the start . The videos and practical examples were great and there was plenty of audience interaction and questions. The Zoom format works far better than I thought it would! Thank you!

I found this really helpful and fascinating. I valued the practical approach, the insistence on the individuality of every dog, the emphasis on getting good behaviours in place first rather than having to devise protracted learning programmes, the application of the science and the humour and interaction throughout. There was a lot to think about and lots of tips to integrate into classes. Thank you so much. It was great.

It's really difficult to describe just how good this course was. It was packed full of important learning from theories of self-/impulse control to neurochemisty (made digestible) to delightfully simple practical exercises. It was engaging, enjoyable, and inspiring. This is the kind of material that makes all of the pieces of the puzzle fit together. An absolute game-changer with lots of eureka moments!

Another amazing course by IMDT ! Dave once more was excellent with his experience ! I find impulse control one of the most difficult subjects in dog training and I am so new in this ! But Dave made it look clearer and he went through the whole subject from theory to practice ! Although it was on zoom there was much interaction and no need to travel but from home ! Thank you IMDT !

Excellent course, clear and hugely knowledgeable delivery from Dave. Gives a great understanding of the subject, factors that impact it, and measures trainers can implement to tackle common problems. Delivered via Zoom which was very convenient.

completed the zoom course, fantastic. I really hope that the IMDT make more course available on zoom. It is so much better, particularly in these strange times, but also makes it so much more accessible.

This was my favourite IMDT course so far. Dave's knowledge is admirable and he teaches in a way that is easy to understand, using analogies and examples throughout the day. This subject is one that really needs understanding by dog professionals and owners alike and I think that to understand it is essential before trying to manage a dog's behaviour. I'd really recommend this course ....and all the others!

What a great course and so much information in one day (but not too much that your head is just spinning by the end of it). Dave provided the perfect amount of information and in an informative and easy to understand way. He was able to help answer lots of questions and queries about the subject making us all start to understand it that little bit more. Highly recommended and actually worth doing more than once to really get your head around it.

Just home after spending another day of excellent learning with IMDTB - this time Impulse Control with Dave Brice. The term 'Impulse Control' is rife in dog training circles currently but with very little clarity provided as to exactly what is meant and how to achieve it (as in how can you achieve something that wasn't defined). Not so the case today! I'm not sure how Dave managed to squeeze it all in, but in just one day he took us through understanding the brain chemistry of impulse control (or not) and how to work with this to gain the results we and our clients want for our dogs. Plenty of opportunities for discussion as we worked our way through video examples and discussed management as well as training strategies (the simpler the better), all the time being mindful of the welfare of the dogs and safety of everyone who might be in contact with the dog. Would recommend this course for all trainers as well as behaviourist - it's a day spent studying that the dogs in your life will thank you for.

Once again, a brilliant day of IMDT learning that answered all of my questions and opened the door to a whole new way of seeing the complexities of behaviour and its management. Well worth the five hour drive and would have been happy to spend another day discussing all the superb tips provided by Dave, who is a fountain of knowledge. I love the way Dave is able to simplify a training problem and make its solution accessible to all. So many new ideas to harness. 6 stars for this one.
