The Humane Society of Dallas County, Dog 'n Kitty City, is
holding two seminars on August 3 and 4 at the Public Building of the
Dallas Farmers Market, 1010 S. Pearl St. They feature food,
goodies/samples, a raffle, and superior education from Lee Mannix, an
Austin dog trainer and behaviorist.
The first day is designed for the public focusing on behavior (owner's
and dog's) and dog care issues that individual owners may encounter.
The second day's seminar is specially created for animal welfare
organizations and issues that prevent dogs from being adopted, or cause
them to be turned in to shelters. This event is priced so as to be
affordable for volunteers and is not a fund-raiser, but a service to the
animal welfare community offered at cost.
Please see the below documents for complete details of both events.

Lee is a pack behaviorist who consults on dog behavior and

based on improving relationships between people and their pets. He began
his career at the Austin Humane Society/SPCA. Confronted daily with the
breakdowns in animal/human relationships that cause people to surrender
their animals, Lee set out to make positive changes in those
relationships. He started training people and their dogs at DogBoys?s
Positive Power Kennels, located outside of Austin. His unique approach
to training and his understanding of dog behavior and animal/human
relationships has brought him local, state, national and international
