Control Unleashed
Leslie McDevitt, MLA, CDBC, CPDT is a Certified Dog
Behaviour Consultant through the International
Association of Animal Behaviour Consultants and a
Certified Professional Dog Trainer through the
Certification Council for Professional Dog Trainers.
Her
Control Unleashed®
program is designed to help "dogs with issues" learn
how to relax, focus, and work off-leash reliably in
either stimulating or stressful situations. It
is great for dogs that are uncomfortable or unable
to work off lead around other dogs, or dogs that are
easily distracted and have difficulty concentrating
or are reactive or easily aroused, anxious or
stressed, and for those dogs that are unable to
control their impulses when excited.
The Dog Whisperer
Cesar Milan has been called a Dr. Phil for dogs, and
for good reason. Cesar's amazing rehabilitations of
aggressive, scared, lazy, compulsive, and jealous
dogs captured the national spotlight when his
National Geographic Channel
(NGC)
series Dog Whisperer
premiered in September 2004. Regular viewers soon
came to realize it wasn't the dogs but the quirky
owners who needed Cesar's help the most.
