FAQs
Is this suitable for puppies or high-drive dogs?
Yes! RRR is perfect for dogs of all ages — especially excitable, reactive, or adolescent dogs who need help learning to downshift and relax.
Is this different from a down stay or mat work?
RRR is not obedience-based. It invites the dog to relax by choice, creating true internal self-regulation — not just stillness.
How is the Quick Course different from the Pro version?
The Quick Course focuses on teaching the core technique without additional case studies, class tips, or expanded eBook content. Great for pet parents or those wanting the basics!

Sharon Henry –
GREAT COURSE, will keep reviewing it often as I have a VERY operant dog and we both need reminders! Sharon Henry
Judy Moore –
I love this course and have found it very valuable with both of my German Shepherd dogs. The “we” in Suzanne’s program made all the difference. My dogs were able to truly relax when I began to relax my own body and breathed deeply. Definitely glad I took this course! Judy Moore, ME
