Cassie update!
Cassie is half way through her stay with us and the difference is fantastic to see.
When she first came to us, she had a fair bit of conflict with the handler, a very strong oppositional reflex to pressure and was almost entirely deaf on the lead. She couldn't see another dog or some people without losing her mind, barking and lunging.
It's been three weeks now and she's really come out of her shell. Conflict is almost non existent, thanks to a super clear marker system, understanding of motivational pressure and a new found fun in working for the handler.
Plus a good deal of drive raising and free shaping!
Recently, she even joined me and stooged her first reactive puppy without a care in the world outside of her raw food👏
She's developing into a lovely, enthusiastic and open dog and I can't wait to see her progress over the next three weeks and once she's back with her owners.
