This lays the foundation for a lot of different things in Dog Training. You can use this when guests come over and you need the dog to wait politely before they are greeted, or to provide the comfort of something familiar in a new environment. Once a dog understands the mat to be a positive place, they can experience physiological relaxation in places that may have otherwise been ‘scary’ or ‘over-arousing’.
I use this very frequently on a daily basis with Solea. She waits on her bed everyday as I prepare and serve her meal. In fact, often times she will go to it by herself as a way of telling me that it’s getting close to dinner time!
I also send her to her mat while I gather the things before we go out for practice, work or walks. This assures her that if she remains calm, good things will happen!

That’s called ‘fear agression’ and my two-year-old dog has it too. the whine and jump because they are afraid but then try to act mean to scare them away or keep from looking afraid, but that’s as far as I’ve gotten. I am looking for a video that deals with it because I can’t afford to pay an arm and a leg for a trainer.

This was so helpful. I have watched several of your videos and i love them. I appreciate how easy and straight forward your techniques are. I see my 4 month old puppy responding well to your method to stop biting and nipping. Is she too to teach to calm down or go to her mat? Which commands should I wait to teach her until she is older?
