📣 You get what you get and you don't get upset 📣

I know I repeat myself a lot but it's important. You can't change who your dog is, so just respect them for who they are instead.

This doesn't mean put up with behaviour problems that can be remedied, or use is as an excuse 🚫 but it does mean respecting them in the sense of creating realistic goals, and not pushing them into situations they're not comfortable in, just because you want them to be comfortable there.

Bane is my selective dog. He wasn't raised for the work I do and he's super awkward socially, EVEN with the dogs he lives with (literally, he will sit in a corner by himself with a toy rather than interacting with them haha). Even if I had raised him, I often wonder how much of this is nurture and how much of it is straight up genetics haha.

The only reason he would react is if I push him into a situation that is too much for him - and this shows me clear as day that I have pushed him too far (which is my bad). It doesn't happen often though. I specifically don't use him socially because I KNOW it can be super stressful for him. He can hold a down-stay around my clients, ignore them, play around them, be off-leash in super close proximity, I'm not worried, he's a good boy. He's just (for the most part) not social, and that's ok. He trusts me to protect him, and I love that about our relationship.

Every now and again he surprises me with impeccable social skills though, and normally it's with a dog I never would have guessed it would be with haha. Bane decided he liked Sunny yesterday and it was super cute. I expected nothing, but I got more and it made for a super sweet moment.

Sunny specifically has it in for shepherd looking dogs, which is why I took Bane in the first place, so it was great for her to overcome that hurdle yesterday and learn they aren't all bad.

Quit trying to push a square peg through a round hole. All it will do is create frustration for everyone involved (plus, it could even make the problem worse).

About Us

The Holistic Hound is a local dog training business servicing the Perth Metro Region and specialising in behaviour modification. We take a holistic approach to dog training and aim to change the way you communicate and live with your dog in order to improve the freedom you have together in real world situations. My name is Lorri and I run the Holistic Hound - I’ve worked and had experience with dogs full time since 2013 and owned multiple rescues with behavioural issues myself. I was frustrated with the lack of support given by trainers as well as the lack of flexibility when it came to helping the individual dog at hand. After studying modern, balanced dog training methods and techniques in depth I now use that knowledge to help others who may be in the same position I was. We cater for all breeds, sizes and ages and attack any problem you may be struggling with. We offer private, in-home sessions to rehabilitate your dogs issues where they happen, and we don’t just train your dog within the private session, we teach you the essentials to be able to continue with a whole new lifestyle and language to ensure improvement of your dogs issues, complete with full support whenever you need it both during the training and for the dogs lifetime thereafter. We are constantly learning and expanding our knowledge when it comes to dogs and can promise that we will try any method that is best for the dog in front of us (every dog is different!), and give you all the information and instruction we possibly have to be able to work you through any struggles you’re experiencing. Our objective is to provide a professional and supportive environment for you and your dog to thrive as a team. Feel free to contact us if you are experiencing behavioural problems with your dog, for more information on the services we offer, suburbs we cover and prices of our private sessions contact us below or via this page!
