Who is this Class for?
This class is for dogs who bark, lunge, growl or otherwise overreact to other dogs, strangers, or wildlife. It is also for fearful dogs who don't do well with strangers or other dogs.
What will you learn?
The Control Unleashed program uses “conversational” training and its underlying principles are based on the behavior modification concepts of desensitization and counter-conditioning. In this class, we will focus on CU foundation behaviors that teach your dog how to relax and focus. In addition, you will learn pattern games that will help your dog to translate unfamiliar or overstimulating environments into a familiar, predictable framework. Through the program you will learn how to understand and empower your dog, and your dog will learn the power of choice.
How does it work?
I will introduce concepts, demonstrate exercises, and assign homework each week. Participants will work on the exercises and then submit a recording for review. We will meet online every Thursday for interactive coaching sessions and discussion of the material. Participants are also encouraged to share videos or ask questions online for additional feedback during the week. Upon successful completion of the course, participants will be eligible to register for Reactive to Relaxed Outdoors to work on applying these skills in a group setting.
