3B Behavior MODIFICATION
For adult small dogs dealing with established behavioral challenges, a specialized, high-structure approach is required. Unlike our foundational puppy courses, the 3B Behavior Transformation program is built specifically to address entrenched habits, emotional reactivity, and nervous system dysregulation through our proprietary 3B System (Biome, Boundary, and Bridge).
Who Is This Program For?
This intensive program is designed for adult small breed dogs exhibiting established patterns of:
- Reactivity and leash frustration
- Fear and defensive barking
- Handling sensitivities and grooming/vet pushback
- Environmental overwhelm and hyperarousal
- Separation-related difficulties
- Poor impulse control and inappropriate social behavior
- Agression
- Resource guarding
Not every serious case is automatically accepted. Cases involving significant aggression, bite history, severe separation anxiety, suspected underlying pain, or other complex clinical issues may require veterinary or veterinary-behaviorist involvement first. This commitment to safety and ethics ensures your dog gets the right level of specialized care.
Training Objectives
Before Session 1: Intake & Evaluation
- Comprehensive Intake: 30–40 minutes of detailed owner paperwork covering history, household setup, routines, and triggers.
- Video Review: Review of 3–5 short video clips provided by the owner to analyze baseline behavior, movement, and context before day one.
Session 1: The 3B Assessment
We answer the critical behavioral questions: What is happening? When does it happen? What happens immediately before? What does the dog do? What does the owner do? What happens afterward? From here, we build your customized
3B Behavior Roadmap.
Session 2: Biome Reset
- Focus: Making learning biologically possible.
- Topics: Addressing environmental load, nervous system recovery, enrichment protocols, daily routines, arousal management, and optimized sleep/rest schedules.
Session 3: Boundary Architecture
- Focus: Creating spatial and emotional clarity.
- Topics: Establishing household rules, predictable routines, environmental management, "place" and settling protocols, physical access, and impulse control.
Session 4: Bridge – Handler Communication
- Focus: Heavily owner-focused mechanical mastery.
- Topics: Teaching timing, human body language, reinforcement mechanics, leash handling, reading escalation cues, recognizing thresholds, disengagement, and recovery.
Session 5: Trigger Work
- Focus: Systematic, low-arousal exposure.
- Topics: Controlled work around specific triggers—no flooding and no artificial over-crowding. Instead: distance - observation - regulation - engagement - gradual progression.
Session 6: Real-Life Application
- Focus: Generalizing skills outside the training bubble.
- Topics: Taking mechanics into sidewalks, neighborhoods, pet-friendly environments, parks, or controlled social settings depending on the dog's individual needs.
Session 7: Troubleshooting
- Focus: Real-time calibration and adjustment.
- Topics: Identifying what is working, what is failing, where the owner is struggling, and where the dog is regressing, followed by a direct modification of the plan.
Session 8: Independence Session
- Focus: Empowering the handler.
- Goal: Moving away from "The dog behaves because Tetiana is here" to "The owner knows exactly what to do when Tetiana isn't here." The owner handles the dog independently while the specialist coaches, concluding with a comprehensive 30-Day Maintenance Plan.
