What is a CSAT?
Given the difficulty of dealing with separation anxiety cases in many dogs, it takes a certain level of expertise to get results. CSAT’s (Certified Separation Anxiety Trainer) must meet high standards before entering a rigorous three-month program with a focus solely on separation anxiety. A Certified Separation Anxiety Trainer is the best option available for helping dog owners that are noticing symptoms of separation anxiety in their pets. CSATs offer virtual training, so no matter where you live they can work with you and your dog remotely and come up with solutions for dealing with your dog’s separation anxiety.
How Our Virtual Program Works
The Michael’s Pack virtual CSAT program requires a 4-week minimum commitment as separation anxiety is a complex behavior and the process to change the behavior is gradual. During these 4 weeks, we work closely with our clients 5 days a week. The program can be broken down into the following concepts:
- Daily mission creation (5 days a week) – We will be creating individualized training plans based on your dog’s personality and behavior. This is broken down day by day specifically for you and your dog to get the best possible results.
- Daily support and feedback (5 days a week) – It is best to take stock daily of what is working and what needs to be improved. This daily feedback will help mold the program to your dog’s needs.
- Weekly live virtual assessment with you and your dog – While we will be in touch daily, the weekly assessment will dive deeper into any questions or concerns you may have.
- Tracking of progress – Dogs are living things, and just like with humans they sometimes do not progress in a perfectly linear fashion. There may be setbacks but we take great care in tracking their progress and seeing how they are doing daily and over a longer period of time.
Separation Anxiety Training From the Comfort Of Your Own Home
Remote training has many benefits over traditional in-person training, especially for separation anxiety cases. Some of the benefits include:
- Work with the most qualified separation anxiety trainers no matter where you live.
- Extremely flexible training schedule to fit your needs.
- Maintain your privacy and routine – no need to tidy up or rush home.
- Fewer distractions for your dog, and they will be in a familiar environment with familiar people.

Why Should You Hire a Certified Separation Anxiety Trainer?
Separation anxiety is one of the most difficult issues to deal with in dogs. Many dog trainers will refer out separation anxiety cases to specialists, which often includes a CSAT. Living with a dog that suffers from separation anxiety can make it difficult to leave your home for even a short period of time, so working with a CSAT dog trainer can help your dog deal with their emotional state and become accustomed to being separated from you.
