This is Maggie, the German shepherd.
This was an initial assessment to address reactivity and lead pulling.
We went straight to work addressing the issues, and as you can see with a few changes from the beginning of the video to the end, it's a huge difference.
We have given Maggies owners homework to continue the process.

Everyone meet Moose, the cockapoo.
His owners were struggling with his over arousal for other dogs, which was developed from typical puppy classes they attended.
Everything was too busy and loud which over stimulated him and created his issues.
All this was achieved in his initial assessment, and his owners will keep his training up and be consistent ๐.

Zak the Great Dane , smashing his session.
Just a happy boy on an adventure now through Langley Moor Front Street.
No reactions what so ever, proud of how far Zak has come. We had a bumpy road, to say the least, at the beginning , but consistency and structure shinning through now.

Bear came to us a few weeks ago after being let down by a previous trainer in the County Durham area.
This is linked to a previous post, which we mentioned how you need to be very careful who you trust and leave your dog with and miss use of tools.
The owners had paid out thousands of pounds for Bear to be trained in everyday life obedience and to be socialised in all environments.
They could not even walk their own dog, nor did the dog even understand any commands or que words. He was extremely reactive and conflicted with how to behave.
As you can see from this video, after a few weeks in now, we have engagement coming in and stability in busy environments with cars, people, and even dogs now.
I am so proud of Bear and his owners for doing their homework and pushing on with his training to get him where he is now.
We know this is not perfect, but what an amazing turn around in behaviour.

**********PICTURE FOR ATTENTION. *************
Please pick carefully when choosing where you're leaving your dog for day care , training, and boarding.
We have a new client whose story will make you think twice about where you're leaving your dog and make you do better checks on the business you trust.
So the story starts with this particular dog day care/ trainer has had this dog from 11 weeks to adult for training and day care and the dog does not understand any marker words or ques to behaviours such as loose leash walking ๐ณ.
We then move on to the trainer using tools that were not discussed with the dogs owner, and they found out by video of the use of this tool. As you are all aware, we are balanced trainers at Voodoo, and we use all tools correctly and appropriately. Everything starts at a minimum with us, and there are no fast fixes.
THIS PART WILL SHOCK YOU THE MOST ๐ฑ.
The dog day care / trainer decided to teach this dog bite work without the owners permission. The trainer has no understanding or experience of doing this, and as you can expect, the trainer has created a human reactive dog.
The owner found out while in a shop when they were approached by a friend who said they had seen a video of the owners dog biting a sleeve on someone and questioned why their dog was doing this.

Meet Lester the lurcher!
As you can here at the start of the video we had a lot of growling due to frustration and uncertainty and overall just not knowing where to put his emotions!
Throughout his assessment we helped lay some foundations! We always start working through some focus drills and learning to work with the owner. As well as developing understanding of a correction through education and conditioning, so the dog understands how to process the correction to then lead to something positive!
As shown we also start on the lowest form of correction/punishment to then gradually build the dog in a new set of behaviours, rather than just suppression. See how Lester learned to walk nicely next to his owner and offer regular "check ins" (looking up at his mum) rather than performing continuous craziness and unwanted behaviour.

Amazing review from such an amazing client who cares enough to provide her dog the freedom it craves all while her dog lives the dream of spending time with Emma and her horses.
I got a rescue GSD bitch 1.5 years old in December who was used to living outside in a cow shed on her own. She was underweight, very nervous around men, came with a horrendous pull and no understanding on the lead, severely reactive to people, dogs, bikes, and new locations
Shortly after, we found voodoo k9 and began weekly sessions with Kevin working through all of the above issues. We introduced the correct training tools to suit, which for her was the E-collar, which has been the key in her recall training as she is a very high drive dog. We introduced this slowly , and Kevin helped me understand the tool and the correct way to use & condition it. The E-collar is a fantastic piece of kit, and I would recommend it to anyone when under the guidance of somewhere like voodoo. It has allowed my dog to have a whole new freedom. At the park, at the beach everywhere.
When Kevin asked what my main goal was for the dog at the beginning 1 said to be able to take her on hacks with my horses as my other dog who has always done this is now too old.
And that's exactly what we do daily now. Something at more than one point I did not think was achievable. We go out with the horses with no reactions, no lead on the ground, just the dog able to happily and safely live her best life. She is my shadow, and she goes everywhere with me now, which voodoo has been a huge part of.
We will continue to work with voodoo to further some of ziras other obedience & protection work we have been working towards.
We have also just had a Great Dane puppy join us, which will also go to regular training through voodoo to give her the best chance she can have to be a great dog!
Thanks voodoo
