I am loving this course! I have not been watching each day, and have not been able to make any of the Q & A during the time slots, but I have learned so much and gotten so many great ideas on working with my dogs- not only with eye drops. We have the chin rest mastered and now I am about to start in with a drop on the head. I loved sessions 13 and 14 especially when we got to see your lovely dog make the choice of whether to stay or not. Thank you for catching that on video. Okay- I am going to go watch the rest of the course now! Thanks again!

The short, daily clips make staying on track so much easier. It can be hard to know what the next step or approximation would be in the husbandry process, but Laura does a great job at guiding you through. Thanks for setting this up Grisha, I'm loving this platform!

A sharp tiny piece of wood made me very aware of the importance of being able to take care of my dog's eyes ! Since this first scary experience including pain, surgery and multiple treatments each day, I strongly recomand every dog owner to train cooperative cares in the eyes area ! This course gives very useful tips and helps going through difficult times !

I highly recommend this course. The care that Laura takes to split the behaviour and the way she reminds you to assess how your dog is feeling throughout the training steps is wonderful! There was a big 'ah-ha' moment for me when we got to the step of actually instilling a drop into our dog's eye - the technique she uses makes it SO much less aversive for the dog. Sign up now and do the training before your dog actually needs drops!

There's always sth in a dogs life that you need to do against their will, eye drops, treating wounds, clipping nails, giving medication. Thanks to Lauras detailed instructions its easy to break down the treatment into smallest step and train it so slowly that the dog will learn that its worth to let you treat him. I just love these 21day challenges that afford only a few minutes each day but make an enormous difference and give inspiration for other trainings as well

Sometimes invasive procedures are necessary for 'best care'.

Our animals don’t know this uncomfortable or frightening thing is for their own good — and we often avoid uncomfortable or frightening procedures even as more knowledgeable humans!

But avoidance just leaves the possibility of needing to act under greater pressure with greater stress if something happens that requires urgent care. Instead of forcing treatment on dogs and other animals, we can teach them to see that these procedures are worth it, by training in advance.

In this 21-Day challenge, Laura will walk us through training for voluntary eye drops in two species, human and canine. I know you're busy, but this is your chance to get motivated: it's time to train!

21 quick daily videos and 4 recordings of previously live Q&A sessions.

  • Normally $99, now just $49! Don't delay. :)

  • Suitable for professional dog trainers as well as families with dogs.

  • Work through trust-building foundation exercises to build confidence with invasive procedures.

  • Build empathy for our animal learners with lessons from human subjects.

  • All live sessions will also be recorded for you to watch later.

  • 4 CCPDT dog trainer CEUs, IAABC CEUs pending

  • Signing up for a lot of online dog training? Diamond Members get ALL webinars and courses in the school for one low rate.

  • We also have a Library Pass which lets you stream this course and a lot of other pre recorded content. Find out more on the Library Pass Page.

Good foundation training can make all the difference.

  • Daily Lessons = Daily Progress

    I know it can be hard to stay on track with training your dog. With this course, you'll get daily lessons to help motivate you!

    Live session recordings will be on your Dashboard to watch later.

    CEUs Available for Course Purchasers, Diamond Members & Library Pass holders

    It's best to train difficult husbandry behaviors BEFORE we need them for immediate treatment
