If someone’s saying this…RUN. There is no one main solution to solving reactivity. SORRY! Your best friend is engagement and a sh*t ton of reps. It’s alllll about re-directing attention, rewarding the shift, and then getting enough successful reps in that it eventually becomes a habit. That’s it. What many people don’t realize with desensitization training like this is there is no timeline on when it works. It can take days, weeks, months to see a true change in the dogs experience of triggers. The only way to have any success is to keep up the repetition consistently. — dog reactivity, reactive dog, dog training, dog aggression, dog behavior, Maryland
