My services
"Walk".... "Out".... "Park", What ever word you use to your four legged family member, they understand what this means for them, if they are experiencing issues with other dogs outside, they may not be looking forward to their daily exercise.
We know our animals from top to bottom so we can tell you about the personalities and traits that define each of them.
If you have a dog that has either been attacked; has attacked another dog; that cannot be walked with other dogs or has even been turned away by a dog walker because of it's behaviour - I will help you find the solution that’s right for your furbaby.
Do you need a walker?
I can, depending on the area, take the dog on and so walks with them can then be calm and relaxed allowing them to learn to enjoy their walks again on a long term basis.
Behaviour work
Does your dog show "aggression"...?
Does your dog have a bite history...?
Does your dog lunge at or attack other dogs when out?
Has your dog ever been attacked?
If you answer yes to anything here and are feeling out of your depth, it is time to get help
......fully qualified to work in this area and undergoing further courses as well as having over ten years personal experience with fear aggression/resource guarding/separation issues and anxiety, I can work with you on resolving the problems presented.
This is not something that will be altered within a couple of sessions, group classes or with a quick fix. Contrary to popular belief, fear aggression or resource guarding cannot be cured, it needs to be managed.
Depending on the issues and the situation we are facing will depend on the overall plan needed to change the dog's view of the problem. After all, the general consensus is that a dog should simply fit into our homes and our lives, right? ......Wrong! The most important thing here is to work out what is the root cause of any aggression or fear and anxiety is, and work together to alter the dog's thought process to be able to alter the behaviour.
Anxiety is not the same as fear however is often a precursor to being fearful.
......Warning....If your dog has got to this stage in their behaviour then this problem will NOT go away. Your companion has likely to have been offering many signs of his or her dislike of a particular situation and feel that they have not been listened to. You need to act now.
Puppies do not come with an instruction booklet. If you are lucky enough to have done your research, purchased your puppy, but not been given the correct help to be able to provide adequate guidance for your puppy you will quickly have an unruly teenager on your hands,then unfortunately, a fully grown adult dog that you cannot cope with.
If your canine is still a puppy (5 months of age or under) I will be more than happy to point you in the right direction to a fully qualified and highly experienced puppy trainer.
Please note that I do not often take on multidog household problems, if your dog is an adolescent it can often be play motivated that can get out of hand - this is often something that needs a lot of careful balancing.
