Clothier’s client friendly techniques harness the voluntary actions of dogs that handlers can reinforce to minimize reactivity. The 3 key skills to accomplish this are:

“Auto Check-In” (ACI): Teaches a dog to maintain connection with a handler while developing the handler’s skill to sustain it;
Politeness Poker: Frequently exchanging rewards for desired K9 behaviors to constantly enhance the connection, and
Really Real Relaxation (RRR) -Teaches shared relaxation- so the dog learns to disengage from triggering stimuli and redirect focus onto the handler/client.

Suzanne’s clear instructions & accompanying videos allow your clients to readily learn each skill.
