Dog Trainer Shares Insights on "Behaviour Adjustment Training 2.0": A Guide for Fearful and Aggressive Dogs

A recent video from dog trainer Shannon of "Paw Forward Dog Training" offers a detailed review of "Behaviour Adjustment Training 2.0" by Grisha Stewart. The book, which is the fourth dog-related title the trainer has engaged with this year, focuses on practical techniques for addressing fear, frustration, and aggression in dogs through a kind and ethical approach.Shannon noted that while she found the book's concepts to be highly valuable, particularly the strategies introduced early on which she successfully implemented with her own dog, the audiobook format presented challenges. "There is a lot of reference to the materials that go alongside the book," she explained, making it "quite confusing" to follow without the physical paperwork.Despite the format-related difficulties, the trainer emphasized the efficacy of the Behaviour Adjustment Training (BAT) method for reactivity training. She believes the book is "suitable for the average dog parent and a dog professional," highlighting its accessibility and the interesting ideas it presents. Shannon concluded by recommending a physical copy of the book for those looking to delve into the material, stating that while she has paused her progress on the audiobook, she intends to finish it.
