| Habituation | Involves surrounding animal w/ stimulus causing problem until animal becomes used to it and is no longer afraid *Use to treat minor behavior problems only |
| Punishment | Used to eliminate an undesirable behavior; must occur every time behavior occurs, applied immediately, be of appropriate intensity, should not connect owner with it |
| Counter Conditioning | Involves taking stimulus linked to negative emotion and reconditioning or counter conditioning the animal by linking stimulus to positive emotional response |
| Desensitization | Diminishing particular behavior by gradually exposing animal to stimulus that produces inappropriate response |
