The Adolescent Brain - Certificate Course
$499.99
One time

Why do adolescent dogs act so differently from puppies and adults? Because their brains are different! In this course, we will cover how brain development impacts behavior, from puppyhood to adulthood, with a special focus on adolescence. You will gain a deep understanding of the changes in the brain leading to "odd" behaviors. Equipped with this knowledge, you can provide clients, pet parents, employees, and volunteers with vital skills to reach their goals while increasing your impact.

Foster and Adopter Program

Setting You and the Dogs Up for Success

Whether bringing a dog into a foster home or into a “furever” home, it is essential you, your foster team, behavioral expert(s), and/or adopters are privy to a proven successful integration program to ensure a smooth transition in the first few weeks. In doing so, potential problems are avoided (the honey-moon period is a common problem), and, if behavioral issues arise, the caregiver has established the necessary core platform skills for the behavioral expert on your team to easily, calmly, and quickly recognize and address them. 

The program is designed to meet the needs of fosters and adopters, and, unlike any other program, bridges the gap between these two essential roles, thus increasing successful adoptions. 

This I.C.P. Certified program is part of the Diploma program (CCBT). If taken separately, the amount paid will be deducted from the Diploma program if you choose to take that course.

Stay tuned for more information!

Testimonials

  • “The world needs to recognize that animals are sentient beings, and Canine Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps this to happen. Thanks, Billie, for your work with dogs.”

    Marc Bekoff, Biologist, Ethologist, Author

  • “I hired Billie to help me with my adopted dog, and, as a certified trainer, quickly became intrigued with her method. I had left the profession, but am eager to return now that I have the skills to work with rescued dogs and dogs with emotional challenges. The course is challenging, fun, and motivating. I thoroughly enjoy every minute of it.”

    Susan Chapman, CCBT/ICP Student

  • “As a psychiatric nurse, I am impressed by Billie’s knowledge of psychology and behavior. Her ability to explain CBT and apply it to dogs highlights her dedication and extensive work in the industry.
