A Successful Approach – with Leslie McDevitt

December 11, 2021 @ 11:00 am - 12:30 pm

A Successful Approach

Saturday, December 11, 2021 at 11am EST

Join Leslie in a Deep Dive to explore how to give your dog control over whether he is ready to calmly approach something–or, over whether he is ready to be approached! Following Leslie’s concept of cooperative counter conditioning, learn how to use her Pattern Games with “startbutton” behaviors that let a dog specifically control Approaches and give him a way of communicating how much distance he would like between himself and a Helper.

In addition: learn how to create counter conditioning procedures that include an ‘opt-out’ and ways for your dog to say No; learn how to teach the ‘go say hi’ game for calm social greetings, using Approach patterns!
