What is flooding in dog behavior therapy?

  • Flooding is a full immersion training technique applied both in humans and animal psychology. It consists of forcefully exposing the dog to the stimuli that triggers its fear and caused the original trauma. This method of behavior therapy may bring fast results, but it may be traumatic and may come with some risks.
