Keep Calm & Walk On

Dogs around the world have triumphed over reactivity (fear, frustration, aggression) by doing BAT set-ups, which are calm and carefully orchestrated so the dog feels safe.

In between sessions, dogs and people are still exposed to triggers like other dogs, children, etc. in everyday life. That's where the Survival Skills come to the rescue.

  • How to get and keep your dog's focus.

  • What to do if a trigger is approaching your dog.

  • What to do if you're trapped and can't avoid a trigger.

  • Key behaviors to train your dog to help him stay busy.

  • The BAT Mark and Move technique for introductions.

  • Get this course and a whole lot more for FREE when you become a Diamond Member! Learn more about Diamond Membership.

  • We also have a Library Pass which lets you stream this course and a lot of other pre recorded content. Find out more on the Library Pass Page.
