Giving your Dog R.E.S.T.™️ is a proven process for rehabilitating difficult dogs and laying the perfect rock solid foundation for service dogs
However, more and more trainers are posting about nervous system regulation as though that's all that matters
Don't be confused. Regulating a canine nervous system is a step in the process... it takes about a week, and then you have to build on that from there
I hate when I see trainers advertising 2 week board and trains for reactive dogs
Talking about how they are going to lay you a foundation...
Sorry but... that's not how it works.
No one can regulate your dog's nervous system but you, in your home.
It doesn't matter if your dog trainer can do it...
But don't let them trick you into thinking it's all that hard... in fact it's easy
Crate your dog overnight + 6-8 hours during the day
Follow the Leader + Forced Follow walk 60-90min daily
Permission for resources and at thresholds
Enhanced Nutrition
Nail trims and bathing
These things alone are all it takes to start to see a major difference
You don't even need tools to really get this (although they make it WAY easier to integrate which is why we use them)
That said I see a ton of trainers doing this part and then heading to home depot in week 2 and that breaks my heart 💔😭
Because so many things have to happen between regulating the dogs nervous system and taking them out into the world so they feel more calm and confident about it When you do...
2 weeks is way too long for nervous system regulation.
And 2 weeks is not enough to start focusing on advanced socialization or advanced offleash work either...
that literally undoes the regulated nervous system almost immediately... trying to rush results to impress clients while doing serious damage to dogs and just extending the timeline for healing...
When you want to reset your Foundations the right way
1. Do it yourself
2. Do it at home
3. Do it using a proven program
4. Don't rush i

The 1st step to Using an Ecollar to Rebuild your Relationship ❤️🩹
Is to teach your dog that it means Connection vs Correction
& How to turn the pressure off
When we layer it over Leash Pressure, we teach our dog
👉 Feel Pressure = Pay Attention / Follow Me
Once they have committed & are Paying Attention / Following
👉 The Pressure turns OFF
Repeat this exercise with low or motivational level stim EVERYTIME your dog becomes disengaged or starts to walk ahead of you
Ps. I LOVE THIS QUESTION 😍
💬 Comment to tell me if you're going to try this at home!
Pss. Make sure you're only using a high-quality ecollar! ⚠️Not a cheap shock collar from Amazon or Chewy⚠️

**This is my demo dog, Savannah. She is a 2yo goldendoodle who is formerly reactive, control aggressive, and resource aggressive. I spent thousands of dollars on bad rewards-based obedience training and we earned a CGC at a highly reviewed training center nearby but she was still a terror 10% of the time. After discovering a variety of issues in training practices and center operations, I left the center to learn about k9 psychology and behavior independently. Networking with some of the best balanced trainers in all of North America.
After learning all that there is to know about pack leadership, how a dog's psychology and physiology are directly related, the k9 nervous system, developing a comprehensive approach to healing reactivity and rebuilding our foundation and relationship, Savannah is now fully rehabilitate
