Calm Canines Control Unleashed
Building Calm, Confidence, and Communication Through Choice and Trust
Calm Canines Control Unleashed
Calm Canines Control Unleashed is an empowering approach to working with our dogs that emphasizes agency, choice and communication. Developed by Leslie McDevitt, the CU training techniques emphasize teaches dogs how to remain calm and focused in the presence of distractions and triggers. One of the key strengths of this approach is its focus on building trust and communication between you and your dog. CU methods are particularly valuable for dogs that are over-reactive, anxious, or have difficulty in new environments. By encouraging dogs to make choices and rewarding calm behaviors, CU fosters a sense of confidence and emotional resilience in dogs, helping them navigate the world with greater ease. We offer two classes using CU methods including Control Unleased® Foundations and Control Unleashed® Next Level.
Control Unleashed® Foundations
The Control Unleashed® Foundations is a four-week class designed to help you and your dog develop the foundational CU skills in calm, focus, self-control, and emotional regulation. This class is ideal for dogs who may be reactive, anxious, or easily distracted, providing them with the tools to stay calm and attentive in everyday situations. Humans will learn how better communicate with their dog, and how to give their dog choice and control in challenging environments. The class also emphasizes fostering a strong, trusting bond between you and your dog, so you can both succeed in any setting. Suitable for dogs of all ages, the CU foundations provide a powerful start for a well-behaved, happy companion.
Control Unleashed® Next Level
Our Control Unleashed® (CU) Next Level class is designed for dogs who have successfully completed the Control Unleashed® Foundations class and are ready to take their CU skills to the next level. Building on CU foundational skills, this class focuses on teaching you how to use simple, highly effective counter-conditioning pattern games to help you and your dog navigate stressful situations. You'll learn how to implement these pattern games, designed to build your dog’s confidence and focus, and help them regulate their emotions, even in challenging environments. Whether your goal is to have your dog walk calmly past distractions or work off-leash near triggers, pattern games will give your dog the tools to stay calm and focused.
