Little darling Ludo had a very successful 3rd training session, gradually increasing the exposure to different triggers. He and his owners did absolutely brilliantly! 😀👏🏻❤️.

Super pleased with Ralph’s second training session! He faced various triggers in different situations, and managed to stay calm and collective. He managed to offer full attention to his owners whilst working on counter conditioning. Well done to Ralph’s owners for practicing those foundation behaviours at home 👏🏻👍😀.

Sweetheart Norman struggles to be left alone since moving into a new house. We covered today all the extras that can help him to settle, for example: physical exercise, mental stimulation, home alone chew toys. In addition, step by step training plan to gradually build up the time he would be comfortable to stay by himself. Well done Norman!

Sweetheart Milo ❤️ was learning how to control his excitement and to focus on his over, when seeing other dogs. He learned that good stuff will come with patients and checking in with his owner first 😊.

It was a pleasure to attend Dr Ian Dunbar seminar for 3 days. It was great to revisit some known science based learning theories, as well as to hear some different views on which training techniques work best.
* Social hierarchies in male and female dogs. Puppy and adult dog interactions. The complexity of social structure between dogs.
* How to objectively assess the actual danger of dog's reactivity to determine a realistic prognosis. Some highly effective exercises to proof dog’s alternative behaviours. Several repeated-exposure exercises to fast-track classical conditioning with familiar dogs, so they are more likely to work during unexpected encounters with unfamiliar dogs. How to classically and operantly condition dog simultaneously, so praise and reassurance do not unintentionally reinforce dog's reactivity.
* Off-lead, lure-reward training effectiveness and reliability, producing results quicker than any other reward-based training technique.

These lovely little three musketeers have use to being very vocal during their walks. After the initial consultation, during which we covered foundations of reactivity training, we managed to do the first walk without barking 😊. In multi dog household, it is important to walk and train each dog separately, until they are ready to be walked together. Well done boys 🐶😊.

Beautiful Mabel was learning “place” and “stay” using clicker and shaping technique. Distance and duration will be then added in small increments through daily training by her owners. She did amazingly 👏🏻😀. We also covered how to implement positive reinforcement training in order for her to stay calm when guests are around. Well done Mabel!
