THIS WORKS FOR REACTIVE DOGS

Revisado: 07-09-22

Have used this technique on an extremely people and dog reactive dog who had been in a shelter for over a year. Time is stretched thin in a shelter environment, so there was only about 4 days a week we were able to work on these short sessions of mat training. The dog picked up on it right away and within 2 months, she was non-reactive to dogs passing by, as close as through a window barrier. Now her only trigger with dogs is another reactive dog lunging toward her, understandably. Within 3 separate meetings of desensitizing her to new people, with her mat, she was able to be handled by this person who fell in love and offered to foster her and she left the shelter! Prior to her mat training, she was so reactive, most people were too uncomfortable to see her potential and wouldn't even come back for a second meeting. She now happily approaches many people and offers no lunging and barking when they look at her, approach her, reach for something, talk to her, etc. Baby bunnies and stray cats are the only things to trigger her lunging and barking these days. Amazing book for behaviorists/trainers!
