Traffic whirring along a busy street; noisy kids at a birthday party; strangers coming up to say hello - living in the human world can be overwhelming for some dogs.
Fortunately, we can help them cope by giving them skills to become more adaptable and BRAVE! Adapting to someone else’s rules and regulations is a lot to expect from anyone, let alone a dog translating another species like us humans! In this course, we'll explore how routines and predictability are key to helping your dog cope with daily challenges, novel items, and new experiences. We’ll guide you through real-life examples, and teach realistic strategies to help you and your dog become a BRAVE team. Learn how to set yourself up for success, get on the same page with your dog, and make life together easier!
This course will help you:
- Understand why situations that feel natural to us don’t always feel that way to our dogs.
- Identify opportunities for boosting your dog’s adaptability.
- Practice new skills and strategies that help guard against unwanted situations and behavior.
- Recognize common situations where you can create routines to increase predictability.
