Online training for nervous dogs

Has anyone tried the Nervous No More course from Clarity Canine Education? it keeps popping up in my instagram feed but not sure whether it is worth the money or just good marketing or, if not, are to there any other courses you would recommend for building confidence in an anxious dog? I am doing various things to build confidence myself and he has improved a lot, but just wondered if there was more I could be doing..

I fail to see how an online course could help with any sort of behavioural issue...a good trainer needs to see a dog in person.

Also, some dogs are just nervous - no amount of training will 'cure' them (no matter what this online course says) and the best you can do is manage their behaviour.

I also hugely dislike (putting it mildly) the phrase 'behavioural modification.'

Find a good trainer near you - ask your vet for a recommendation - and go from there. Don't fall for this online nonsense.

Thank you, . We have used a local behaviourist as well and I look at a lot of online content but had just wondered if there was anything I was missing (behaviourist recommended enrichment at home etc and taking days off walks etc) . I imagine it is nonsense like you say and I would be very disappointed if I spent money on it so good advice thank you..
