Webinar – 11/3/20 – Revisiting Respondent Techniques – Change the Behavior by Changing the Emotions – PPG (fee applies)

Virtual

Pet Professional Guild Presents (fee applies): When working towards solving behavior problems our focus tends to be on the behavior. This happens for a couple of reasons: firstly, behaviors are much more noticeable than the emotions that drive them; secondly, from the human perspective the behavior is the problem, not the emotion. From the dog’s perspective, however, the emotion is the problem, not the behavior! This webinar will revisit respondent techniques such as classical extinction, systematic desensitization and counter-conditioning, as well as explain how to apply them effectively taking different variables into account.
