From Start to Finish: Success in Aggression Cases

Two-day seminar with Michael Shikashio

 

Step inside the process of real behavior cases as Mike works live with dogs and their guardians. This unique session offers attendees a rare, unfiltered look at each stage of a consultation — from the initial assessment to safety planning, management strategies, and the implementation of behavior change techniques.

 

Across two days, you’ll follow two different cases, each broken into two parts. Day one will focus on gathering a thorough history, identifying risk factors, and setting up effective safety and management plans. On day two, you’ll see how those foundations carry into the application of behavior change strategies, with each session building on the information and decisions from the day before.
