Bowl Patrol is a structured pattern game designed to support nervous system regulation and flexible thinking. By pairing predictable treat placement with nose work, this exercise helps dogs shift out of stress mode and into learning mode.

In this video, you’ll learn how to:

• Build a clear two-bowl pattern

• Gradually increase difficulty without frustration

• Add bowls and mild distractions appropriately

• Transition from predictable sequences to flexible sniffing work

Perfect for rainy days, adolescent dogs, reactive dogs, or any pup who benefits from structured calm and confidence-building.
