Welcome to Control The Meerkats collection of control unleashed pattern game courses!!

Pattern games are from wonderful world of Control Unleashed, which is a collection of training games and exercises created by Leslie McDevitt, a world-renowned dog behaviour consultant, speaker and author. These exercises and games are a unique way to build communication and trust between dog and handler by creating simple, predictable, and effective patterns. These exercises help dogs to learn how to regulate their emotions, recover quickly from stressful situations and even prevent reactions! These are the foundation skills needed to help any and all dogs to thrive in the chaotic world they often live. Their simple and repetitive nature make them easy to remember and implement for handlers of all abilities! 

Control The Meerkat founder Danielle Beck, Clinical Animal Behaviourist is one of Leslie McDevit’s Certified Control Unleashed Instructors after being mentored and assessed by Leslie herself. Danielle has also presented on the use of pattern games in dog rehabilitation at the Control Unleashed – Unleash The Rainbow conference in the USA, as they are an excellent way to help dogs to control their meerkat!!

These courses have been developed and are delivered by Danielle to help people learn how to teach these patterns to their dogs and then utilise them in many situations from Assistance and Service dog work to rehabilitation for reactive dogs and those with anxiety, frustration intolerance and emotional dysregulation. 

These courses are taught live online via zoom, and have an accompanying facebook group where attendees can share their videos of utilising the exercises in between sessions so everyone can see how effective these exercises really are!
