Turn and Face (TAF) is a way of calming dogs and halting arousal caused by aggression, fear, over friendliness, over excitement, or learned habitual overly reactive behavior. It usually works within a few seconds or minutes of the first application and can then subsequently be used by the dog's owner, at any time when the dog becomes overly reactive or aroused.
In most cases TAF dogs will soon adopt a calmer quieter attitude as ‘the way to be’, and they quickly become much more manageable in formerly ‘reaction causing’ situations. Most dogs like being calm, but somehow many come to ‘forget’ this. Turn and Face reminds them.
