This is an in depth professional dog training video tutorial on the Protocol for Raising Criteria for Emotional and Behavioral Modification By Emily Larlham. This video is on how to raise criteria when trying to change a dog’s behaviors and emotions in training set ups in regards to something that previously has made him act fearful, reactive, over-excited or aggressive. This video uses the example of a dog reacting to other dogs, but the protocol can be used for anything. I will create more videos using other examples of triggers as well as show what to do next if working on introductions.

A big than you to my friend Joanna Chang and Gummy Bear the Aussie for helping me create this video that I know will help so many dogs and their people! I am also extremely grateful to all the dogs I have worked with as well as mentors and trainers I have learned from around the world.

If you have a dog who can become fearful, reactive or over excited around people or dogs I suggest getting help from a professional trainer who doesn’t use any forms of physical or psychological intimidation to help you create the plan for the set ups and help you find appropriate decoy dogs and people to use.
