*Counter Conditioning can help your pet enjoy even the most daunting tasks, such as a nail trim. This video shows how a dog is very afraid of a nail trim to the point where he acts out in aggression. By taking your time and using counter conditioning  you can help the dog understand that this task can be fun and alleviate stress during the task.

*Counter Conditioning can also be used to train cats! Getting your cat into a cat carrier is one of the biggest complaints among cat owners. This can prevent owners from bringing their cat to the veterinarian when needed. This video will explain step by step how to get your cat to love their carrier and do well with traveling.

*Using a clicker can really help with training. The clicker allows you to mark the behavior right when it happens and your pet will soon associate the sound of the clicker with a reward or positivity.
