Module 5 — Five-phase practical guide

  • Pause: reduce pressure and create time.
  • Describe: record what can be seen or heard without labels.
  • Expand: review Dog, Human, and Environment.
  • Adjust: change one safe, reversible variable.
  • Compare: observe before and after without forcing an outcome.

If risk rises or the dog’s behaviour changes suddenly, stop the exercise and seek qualified support.
