Meet Needs – Change Behaviour
Reframing Reactivity is the most comprehensive course on dog reactivity for professionals available anywhere in the world. Taught by reactivity specialist Janet Finlay, with special guest presentations by Sonia Catherall, this course brings together techniques from ACE, Control Unleashed, Your End of the Lead and more to give you confidence that you are getting the best results for your clients.
As with everything we do at HeartDog, this course is built around meeting the needs of the dog - and guardian - before we teach the dog new behaviours. We will show you how to work through the different steps in the Wellbeing Framework to support your clients and their dogs, addressing their physical, emotional, mental and social needs as well as environmental factors. We will give you a practical understanding of three of the educational approaches that are most valuable for working with reactivity: ACE, Control Unleashed and Choice-Based Training.
Stand out from the crowd by showing your clients and colleagues you have the required skills and knowledge to work reactivity cases with excellent results.
