Science Saturday!
Counter conditioning must be done on a 1:1 basis in order to be successful; see dog, get food. See scary, human, get food. This is how we change the association that our pups already have with certain triggers.
Alfie and Mary show us how critical the timing of the ‘yes!’ Marker is in order to change that association in Alfie’s brain so that when he looks at a scary human, it becomes the cue to look back at mom for a treat. 
Well, done Alfie and Mary! Great counter conditioning session!
Sign Up For SCENT GAMES! 🐾
Tap into your dog’s natural instincts through scent-detection games! Harness their amazing sniffing skills as they hunt down a designated scent and signal its discovery to you. This class is perfect for cultivating collaboration, building self-confidence, and providing mental and physical stimulation.
Scent Games is especially beneficial for dogs that are fearful, anxious, or have some reactivity. Dogs of all ages are welcome, and no prior training is necessary.
Starting this Friday, June 14, 2:15 pm! Sign Up Today!
