Koheler method of dog training?

[JamieSchommer]

I am going to start koehler training my basset/beagle mix tonight. Any pointers/tips? He is 1.5 years old, and cannot focus when I have treats, but only performs when I do. I need a reliable dog. When we are done with koehler will he be able to pass a cgc test? What about doing rally? I know he is a mutt but I am going to sign him up for the akc thing where he can do agility/rally/obedience. He screams in his kennel, any suggestions to calm him down? Should I ignore him and wait it out? Thanks.
