In his day job Hungarian Attila Szkukalek is a biochemist in Norwich, England. In his private life he's a husband, father, and dog training instructor. To the rest of us, Attila with his dog, Fly, is the best freestyle trainer and performer on the planet—and a powerful ambassador for reinforcement-based training. Attila and Fly are the UK freestyle champions and perform regularly at Crufts (the British equivalent of Westminster, but bigger) and throughout Europe. Attila is a regular teacher and participant in Kay Laurence's clicker training conferences in the UK. Now this dazzling team will be coming to the spring ClickerExpo, in Newport, Rhode Island, March 31, and April 1 and 2, 2006. Each day during the lunch hour they will perform a different routine. You'll have a chance to see and study their most popular routines, "Charlie Chaplin," and "Gladiator," plus a new performance now in training, which may in fact be Fly's last routine, Attila has announced. You can see video clips of this must-see-to-believe duo at Attila's site. Then come and see Attila's work in person at next season's final ClickerExpo. This is a precious opportunity; we are lucky to have him. Please join us in Newport.
