Dog Training and Behaviour Solutions: The Step-By-Step Guide To Solve Common Behaviour Problems.

Product Information

This book, with its step by step guides on so many common behavior “problems” most pet owners experience with their pups, is great!

Resource Guarding in dogs is a behaviour that is modifiable without force, fear, threat or intimidation. Overcoming the fear that can be associated with going to the vet takes a careful approach, and often one that needs to be built over time.

These are dogs that have either poor social skills or have developed sensitivities towards the proximity of some dogs. However, if fear is a factor we can also use techniques to help your dog feel better about the trigger, such as pairing every sighting with awesome food, without having to perform any behaviour.

We carefully consider how your dog’s behaviour is impacting you and what interventions we can make in the short and longer term to resolve the problem or range of difficulties, so that you are able to enjoy life with your dog. My Dog Walking work involves an intimate understanding of your animal’s natural and individual history. We work with Session Packages tailored to your individual circumstances to ensure the situation is resolved.

Sally Bradbury has worked with dogs all her adult life from RSPCA kennel maid in her teens to founding and running her own very successful dog training business for 20 years. Guarding behaviour can successfully be modified without force or intimidation or making your dog afraid. We now know genes can “learn”, we also know that the specific adaptive trait of “capacity to learn” is genetic. Indie suffers from arthritic problems and severe seperation-anxiety, and 'flick of a switch' changes in her demeanor.

It’s hard not to take guarding behaviour in our dogs personally, as after all, we do provide all their resources! A behaviour consult with Nick, is an investment in your dog, that will provide you a lifetime of benefits for you and your dog.Behaviour change programmes are organised in a step by step style, so we only ever move at a pace that is comfortable for you and your dog.

Using positive training, learning to know what your dog is telling you can learning why things happen.

We understand that guarding behaviour in dogs can be frightening or scary, and we are used to talking to people who are upset or worried.
