Cooperative Care Package - teaching your dog to cooperate with routine care.
This package will get you and your dog well on the way to better communication! Wouldn't it be nice when you have to put the leash on, if your dog was not wiggling all over the place! Or when you must trim toenails to not have a wrestling match! You will learn how to tell your dog that you need a certain behavior, and they will be allowed to consent, or not. Your dog to feel like they have some control over what happens to them, and this builds their confidence in the relationship. Don't worry, dogs love this process so it is rare to have them say no!
This package is customizable, to suit your needs!
