Just as we edged into the new year, news came through that Karen Pryor has died.
Karen had been living with dementia for some time. Always a cruel disease it seems especially hard when it hits minds like Karen’s.
In her long life, she built upon work of early behaviourists and brought their theories and practice into the world of many, many people and animals.
On the way she changed many lives for the better and has left the legacy, not only of her writings and videos, but of the Karen Pryor Academy.
Those of us who have graduated from her training course pledge to continue her work and she will be forever in out minds and in our methods.
Thank you Karen, for al of it.
