TTouch AKA Tellington Touch
Judy Powers' professional training is in the TTouch Method. More than just basic obedience, this training covers Behavior Modification for cats, dogs and other companion animals. TTouch can help with shyness, nervousness & anxiety as well as hyper-activity, reactivity & "puppy biting".
TTouch is a non-invasive method for helping with pain management, and old age issues.
There are three basic techniques to the TTouch Method:
1. TTouches that cover the gamut of issues from too much energy to fearfulness to the resistance to being touched!
2. Equipment that is placed and/or used on the animal that helps the animal to experience the world differently.
3. The "Course of Higher Learning" or "Confidence Course" combines equipment with various obstacles. The dogs need to negotiate around and over obstacles to get a better sense of their bodies. It helps occupy their minds and get them thinking in different ways. Also it is a way to observe your dog and see if they have issues with moving their bodies.
It can be revealing once we really start observing our animals.
