Most Common Behaviour problems:
Aggression / Reactivity
There are many many reasons why dogs can be aggressive or reactive to other dogs. Apart from being dangerous it is also very stressful to both owners and dogs. Probably the most common comment we receive from clients is “why have we lived with this for so long when we now realise there is so much we can do to help”
We will NOT tell you to punish your dog for this behaviour
WHY – Because it is an emotional response and telling your dog off will increase your dogs emotions making the behaviour even worse in the long term
We will NOT tell you to do lots of socialising
WHY – Because at the moment your dog hasn’t the skills to deal with those situations
We will NOT tell you to avoid dogs forever
WHY – Because you and your dogs walking world would become very very small. We will however introduce dogs in a controlled manner once you have been tought the skills to deal with those situations
We can also help with – Aggression / Reactivity towards other people or even yourself, Separation Problems, Noise Phobias, Chasing etc etc
