BAT 2.0 is uniquea living document detailing the evolution of a
very effective intervention from the experience of many

her behavior modification recipes. She has made great steps forward
in her quest to help the emotional well-being of dogs. -- Terry

I love the pedagogical approach of BAT 2.0 and the focus on how to
install a feeling of control in a dog's life, all in all a
fundamental recipe if you want your dog to feel safe and happy. It
also adds an ability for dogs to predict events, which further
strengthens its self-worth and being in control in relevant life
situations. -- Anders Hallgren, author, Stress, Anxiety, and
Aggression in Dogs
In BAT 2.0, Grisha Stewart provides the essential answer to this
all-important question: Behavior is to have an effect, that is, to
be effective. By safely allowing dogs more control over their own
outcomes, especially in challenging conditions where fearful,
frustrated, and aggressive behavior is most likely, caregivers will
be more successful. -- Susan G. Friedman, Ph.D., Professor Emeritus
Utah State University, www.behaviorworks.org
What Grisha has done with BAT 2.0 is just that. The method combines
operant and classical conditioning with a deep knowledge of the
dogs natural language and behavior. And even though BAT is grounded
in hard science, Grisha has a way of explaining things so clear and
simple that everybody can understand itand do it. -- Morten
Egtvedt, Director, Canis Clicker Training Academy
