Description

Control Unleashed: "Creating a Focused and Confident Dog" Learn what the Control Unleashed program is all about and which dogs benefit from it most. Learn Leslie's "red flag" behaviors and how to communicate them to clients, what CU pattern games look like and how/when to use them, and considerations when teaching a CU group class. I have been using Control Unleashed techniques with my dogs and clients since 2012, and I am currently submitting for the brand new CU Certified Instructor program that was started in July 2018. Control Unleashed remains my most popular group class. Trainer and author Leslie McDevitt originally created the Control Unleashed program for performance dogs (namely agility competitors) who had difficulty focusing, managing arousal, and/or maintaining drive to work. While this program was originally designed to help reactive dogs and those who shut down easily in performance sports, it has become well recognized for its use in preventing reactivity and creating off-leash reliability in puppies as well. Control Unleashed games teach handlers to better recognize early signs of stress and over-arousal, create a reliable framework in which to work, and ensure predictability for the dog in even the most uncertain and distracting circumstances.
