I am currently offering online classes through Your Dog's Friend!
Control Unleashed® Foundations
Based on Leslie McDevitt's Control Unleashed® program, this class will introduce you to the concept of conversational training. In this 6-week class, you will learn how to understand and empower your dog, and your dog will learn how to make good behavioral choices.
Start Date: August 16, 2022
Control Unleashed® Pattern Games
Build on your foundation in this 4-week class based on Leslie McDevitt's latest book Control Unleashed: Reactive to Relaxed. CU pattern games help your dog translate unfamiliar or overstimulating environments into a familiar, predictable framework that allows them to process the environment while remaining engaged and able to focus.
Prerequisite: CU Foundations
CU: cooperative care and counterconditioning
In this 6-week online class, handlers will focus on using Start Buttons to give their dogs the ability to say Start, Continue, or Stop a specific procedure. Each dog team will select a specific area to focus on during this course. Participants must have completed CU Foundations and CU Pattern Games.
Prerequisite: CU Foundations & CU Pattern Games
CU: Reactive to Relaxed
For reactive dogs who have completed CU Foundations and Pattern games, this 6-week online class will give dogs and handlers a solid grasp of how to utilize CU to help their dogs continue their journey from "reactive" to "relaxed".
