Canine Body Language in Training

  • Desensitization

    Desensitization

    Desensitization training is vital for managing triggers in dogs, especially service dogs. Variable threshold training involves identifying triggers, creating a controlled environment, and allowing the dog to dictate the pace of desensitization. This approach ensures lasting effects compared to the potentially harmful flooding method.
