Systematic Desensitisation with Scatter Feeding and Nose Work
Helping a fearful or reactive dog requires more than exposure—it requires structured, positive experiences that change how your dog feels about their triggers. This course introduces a systematic desensitisation approach using scatter feeding and nose work, two powerful tools that engage your dog’s natural instincts to reduce stress, build confidence, and create positive associations.
Through step-by-step guidance, you’ll learn how to:
✔ Identify and rank your dog’s triggers to create a customised desensitisation plan.
✔ Use scatter feeding to keep your dog calm and focused in the presence of a trigger.
✔ Incorporate nose work to build confidence and encourage relaxation.
✔ Recognise signs of stress and success to adjust training effectively.
Whether your dog struggles with strangers, other dogs, loud noises, or other triggers, this course provides the knowledge and tools to help them feel safe, secure, and in control.
