Workshop Description

This Reactivity Workshop is a must for anyone who dreads bringing their dog out in public due to reactivity. If you fear seeing another dog, person, bike, scooter, or skateboard and hardly leave the house with your dog, or avoid being outside entirely, this class is for you! In this class, we will cover: - Understanding the root cause of your dog's reactive behavior. - Focus & attention exercises: Teach your dog to focus on you in distracting environments and around triggers. - Counter-conditioning: Pairing the presence of triggers with positive experiences like treats, toys or play. This can help change your dog's emotional response to the trigger. - "Sit" or "down" command: Practice obedience commands in various situations. This helps your dog focus on you and remain calm when faced with triggers. - When to allow for observation and reward calm behavior: Reinforce and reward your dog for calmly observing known triggers. This helps your dog associate calmness with positive outcomes. - The difference between bribing and rewarding: Using food can create problems when not done correctly. - Impulse control: Teach your dog to wait for permission before approaching triggers and to think about their actions. - Desensitization and exposure: Expose your dog to triggers in a controlled and positive way. - Learn to train proactively and with intention, rather than reacting to your dog and feeling overwhelmed. - Learn how to read your dog's body language and respond accordingly. - How to implement corrections if and when needed. Most importantly, you will gain confidence, and clarity and learn how to engage with and lead your dog. BONUS ADDITIONAL TRAINING: Access to 4 weekly Reactive Dog Mastermind Zoom classes with Antonio to help continue your success.
