- Free temperament screening before enrollment — not every dog is a fit
- Public-access manners: settle in restaurants, polite in elevators, calm in crowds
- Deep pressure therapy (DPT) for anxiety and panic interruption
- Anxiety-spiral interrupt cues, tailored to the handler
- Task-training transfer — you learn how to maintain the work at home
- Phased plan: foundation block, intermediate, then public-access proofing
