Fernie, come out and join the conversation! Link in bio for tickets - limited seating.
Perfect for: Anyone with a friendly, but reactive dog; anyone with an adolescent dog just beginning to show reactive or less confident behaviour; anyone with a puppy looking to prevent unwanted behaviours from showing up; anyone interested in learning why dogs do what they do!
Presented by Valerie Barry (Dog Partners), Katie Guille (Project K9 Dog Training), hosted by Barkside Pets in Fernie. Sessions are classroom style (no dogs please), and half the proceeds go to the Emegency Medical Fund at the Cranbrook Animal Hospital.
This will be a discussion on why friendly dogs become reactive on leash. We will provide training suggestions, prevention strategies and give you some tips to help manage, prevent and work on this challenging behaviour.
Leash reactive behaviour does not go away on its own, and it can easily escalate – spilling over into off-leash behaviour, too.
Friendly dogs commonly start displaying reactive behaviour when they’re adolescents. Our discussion will include tips on how to prevent this behaviour before it starts.
Katie and Valerie both specialize in working with behaviour issues from the mild to the extreme. They participate in regular continuing education to ensure we have the most up to date and relevant training information.
We hope to see you there! Please feel free to pass along any discussion topics that interest you for future Talks. 😁🐶
