Elizabethanne Stevens' Poodle, Chase, stars in the Canis Film Festival Finalist video, "What Is This?"
2011 marks the third Canis Film Festival hosted by Karen Pryor Clickertraining. The contest is designed to showcase short videos promoting training using positive methods.
The Canis Film Festival encourages entries to demonstrate not only the amazing end behavior, but also the process and methods used to achieve the final result. Other criteria include innovation (in the end behavior and the approach), entertainment value, use of positive training methods, and the general usefulness of the video.
