Silence is Golden – with Leslie McDevitt

Silence is Golden

Saturday December 11, 2021 at 1:00pm EST

Ever been told to “just reward your dog for being quiet?” That isn’t sustainable, because “being quiet” is not a specific behavior for the dog to do instead of barking. Explore how to teach “being quiet” behaviors including deep breathing (from Dr. Karen Overall’s biofeedback protocol) and being still in body–with mind to follow–for increasing duration, using Leslie’s “Down for the Count” game. Got a dog or client’s dog that has issues with arousal, hyperactivity, vocalization? This one’s for you.
