Training Between The Ears (TBTE), is a system primarily for solving behavioral problems in dogs which involves a number of techniques that all support Mark McCabe’s primary objective of removing conflict from relationships and training and to the greatest degree possible not just changing the external behavior of the dog but actually changing the internal states and perspectives of the dog that drive problem behaviors. It is TBTE’s goal to help a dog to be able not just to choose not to do bad things or to follow commands of their owners, but to get them to prefer to behave in ways that are better for their happiness, emotional and physical wellness and success in their world.
