I read Leslie's book Control unleashed - Reactive to relaxed before watching the webinar, but I found many new fantastic practical tips in this course, which I implemented with success with my reactive dog. Leslie and Grisha are both great at passing on their knowledge in an entertaining way. If you are looking for some gentle and effective steps to heal reactivity, this course should be definitely on your list.

THANK YOU for sharing this webinar. I had used LAT with my over reactive corgi in the past, but learning the TE part is a game changer! I rewatched parts of the class a few times, to make sure I was getting all of the information I could out of it. Today I did a session in my front yard applying what I learned to allow my dog to be more comfortable around a friends boyfriend. After the session was done and I gave her some alone time she was totally cool with the boyfriend being in the house, and even went and laid down on the couch for some petting!! I'm hoping this will help my dog continue to gain confidence around strangers! I am so thankful this course was offered. Thank you Leslie McDevitt AND GSA for providing such valuable information.

Welcome to LATTE - Leslie’s Newest Learning Game!

LATTE, which stands for "Look at That, Then Enrichment," is designed to give the learner a lot of downtime for enrichment and decompression during an operant counterconditioning procedure.

Like most of the games in Leslie's world-renowned Control Unleashed program, LATTE is a learner-directed pattern that gives both predictability and control to the animal.

Unlike Look at That, LATTE can also be used for socialization, and has been a big hit with shelter dogs learning to interact with volunteers. Whether your learner has a habit of reactive or anxious behaviors and needs to feel safe around "triggers," or is unsure or overexcited about social interactions, or needs support to feel comfortable in novel situations, LATTE can be customized just for them!

LATTE is simple, requires no previous skill or training, and can be made part of any training program.

Webinar with Q&A session recorded May, 2022.

  • Gain a greater understanding of Pattern Games and how they can help a learner process their environment.

  • Explore the key differences between LATTE and Decaf LATTE.

  • Empower your learner to have a dialogue with you about something in their environment.

  • Discover the purpose behind decompression loops, how to set them up, and when they should be used.

  • Learn how to combine LATTE with other training methods such as BAT.

  • Suitable for anyone working with a dog (or any other animal!) who wishes to add more tools to their trainer toolbox.

  • Get this and whole lot more with a Diamond Membership All Access Pass. For one low price per month, you get access to over 85 emotionally enriching courses. See if Diamond is right for you.
