Hi list, I just finished reading a very interesting article in Whole Dog Journal, "Obsessive/Compulsive Dogs." In this article CKCS fly- snapping behavior is mentioned. What is interesting is the article states that although fly-snapping behavior was thought to be a form of epileptic seizure, current beliefs are that it is a behavioral issue, although with a genetic component. And that behavioral modification techniques can often control or cure the behavior.
This magazine is an excellent one and I recommend it to anyone who wants to keep up with the "cutting edge" of holistic health issues and positive reward training techniques.
