One topic I am a little passionate about is dog safety … did you know you can get points and a fine for not having a restraint in your car if you take your dog out ??

Meet little Chaos …. She is the biggest bundle of love, hugs, kisses and fun … however, that is so long as she knows you and there are no shadows or surprises !
She’s staying with us a while as we work on decompression and coping with the crazy world we live in.

I often say when a dog is showing high reactivity you need to close their world down, let them settle within themselves then manage how much and how long they have exposure to triggers to help them with their ability to learn and cope

With a few experiences including visitors, a chihuahua on an extendable lead ‘just saying hi’ , poor chaos was seriously overwhelmed , even to the point of reacting to the other dogs in the house.

We have managed the situation using crates, dog gates and use of leads to separate and manage behaviours to ensure everyone in the house has good experiences … one week later she is fully integrated again with no managed separation as she can cope with her emotion’s again

Just shows when I say ‘ditch the walk and let them decompress’ … it could be a day, week or even more

If you have a dog that struggles, take time and learn to understand what their struggles & triggers are, only then can you find ways to help them
But no training is ever a ‘quick fix’ … just like us, dogs need time and understanding too ❤️
