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

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

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.
