About this listen
Some dogs need a little help.
Some dogs are afraid, or excited, or reactive. Dogs that "don't listen" and "go crazy" don't live the lives we - or they - want.
Fired Up, Frantic, and Freaked Out can change that. Simple steps and an accessible, conversational tone from award-winning, internationally-known trainer Laura VanArendonk Baugh CPDT-KA KPACTP make calming the agitated dog not only possible, but pleasant.
In this book you'll learn how to achieve change in short, simple training sessions of a minute or less; maximize the effects of natural brain chemistry; know when to call in medical help; "clean up" unreliable behaviors in both overexcited sport dogs and pets at home; and recognize how fear, aggression, and excitement are variants of the same root problem.
The conversational tone is both informative and fun-very accessible, and it feels like the listener has a consulting trainer standing at her shoulder! Bring your dog from emotional to thoughtful, and enjoy a calmer, more enriched life with your best friend.

Thank you for making this available in audio!
Great information from an experienced dog trainer who gives examples from real life dogs. Includes good explanations of how to actually carry out the training process. The narrator must be a professional audiobook narrator, not a dog trainer, as she occasionally says something a little oddly (eg. Desensitisation is said as “desense-itation a few times.) It’s not a problem though, she has a nice voice and this was easy to listen to otherwise. I’m so glad this is available as an audiobook, and that I can bookmark/clip certain sections for a quick refresher “pep talk” if I need it.

It’s perfect
It works. It’s fun. It’s a beautiful way to be with your hound. It’s a clearly worded book without fluffy nonsense or over explaining. It’s worth repeated reading. It’s perfect.

the whole book is about free shaping mat training
content was too short and only focussed on one exercise mat training, frantic dogs will need more than this exercise to learn to settle down
