This in-person, 9 day course allows students to discover how to reach a dog that needs some behavior modification, through methods long developed, and affect the dog for a better outcome. After evaluations of each potential dog, you will be assigned a dog to learn how to live with 24/7. By becoming a teaching/learning partner with your dog, you begin learning a different method of affecting dogs, changing your perspective of what a dog is, and is capable of, and learning how to be in a deeper relationship with a dog that the dog understands and responds well.

The purpose of this course is to detail more of the concepts, through practical application of RBBM concepts. You will learn what it means to communicate effectively, without tools, and create a better understanding between you and any dog. RBBM II is a sea change class for most students in being able to permanently change a dog’s behaviors in a short amount of time. Class time goes into depth on understanding many aspects of dogs mental, physical and temperament states.

Class structure includes approximately 50/50 class lecture/discussions and exercises. There is a heavy emphasis on reading, listening and note taking during class and after. There is a higher level of physical requirement for this class due to the nature of working with dogs outside, and in different locations. Between the walks, the exercises and the movements with your dog, you will average 4 – 7 miles of movement per day (although not all at one time). There will be many different categories of exercises and work with dogs that are shown, practiced and learned.
