Welcome to Reactive Rover Level Two- Where Progress meets Performance!
Class Prerequisite: Successful completion of Reactive Rover Level one Class
Reactive Rover Level Two is a 7-week Behavior Modification curriculum for dogs that have gained skills from our Reactive Rover Level One course. It picks up where you and your dog left off in Reactive Rover Level One Class.
Reactive Rover Level Two is a seven-week Behavior Modification that takes the skills learned at level one and adds additional exercises to further build confidence, strengthen the relationship between the dog and owner, and directs the dog’s focus onto fun things to do next, rather than reacting to other dogs and or people. We will add new upgraded BAT Training skills such as navigating your dog through Bat Setups with a longer lead. This class engages the dog both mentally and physically in a positive manner.
Reactive Rover 2 teaches more advanced obedience skills, more control, focus and confidence-building exercises, and more natural activities around other dogs. It provides a great transition to real world environments. Depending on class make-up and individual dogs, this class may progress to on-leash meet-and-greets, including teaching your dog better doggy social skills. Students get more advanced instruction on recognizing and responding effectively to the myriad social cues and body postures that indicate good, low-risk interactions versus higher-risk interactions.
Reactive Rover Level Two allows you to continue working on your skills through fun exercises and games in a safe environment. This class offers an excellent opportunity to practice, have fun with your canine with fun exercises & further his training skills.
You’ve taken our Foundations class to help you to gain greater confidence with having your dog around other dogs. Now it’s time to keep building reactivity skills and obedience around other dogs.
