SUMMARY:Webinar - 9/30/21 - Top 3 Solutions to End Doorbell Pandemonium - Nancy Tucker - FDSA (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:The doorbell. Ugh. If anything can cause the most canine chaos with the least amount of effort\, it’s the common doorbell or a knock at the door. That simple musical chime (or knock-knock) triggers barking\, racing through the house\, and crowding the entrance. Even when the sound just comes from the TV! \nWhat follows is often the addition of human voices shouting over the noise in an unsuccessful attempt to quiet things down. \nThere’s a better way. No shouting\, no diving for the mute button on the remote\, no wading through barking\, hopping dogs at the door. \nIn this webinar we’ll cover the top 3 approaches to curbing the chaotic response to doorbells or knocking\, with the aim to restore peace and calm in your home\, even when the UPS driver shows up. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.fenzidogsportsacademy.com/index.php/self-study/webinars
