How this dog training plan works

Every plan is a day-by-day, four-week schedule built around your breed's cognitive profile, your dog's life stage and the behaviour you're actually working on. Week one removes rehearsal of the old habit, week two builds the replacement, week three adds distraction, and week four fades the rewards. It's free, printable, and grounded in canine cognition research from Dr. Brian Hare's team at Duke.
