Recommended prerequisite:  Advanced Body Language: Greeting & Play Behavior

Now that we know how to read greeting and play interactions, we are able to tell when human mediation is required. But how exactly do we do that? 

We’ll be discussing interruption and redirection strategies to improve a dog’s ability to respond appropriately to other dogs’ social cues and body language. This improves overall social skills and takes the stress out of dog-to-dog social interactions! 

Is your dog practicing greeting or play behavior that is coarse, over-the-top, or sometimes received poorly? Is your dog hesitant, fearful, or shy during interactions with new dogs? Come to this class to learn how to help him!
