1yr old XL Bully Reggie is overwhelmed with the environment and was unable to engage with his care his caregiver.
Allishia was struggling to manage her big strong sensitive dog and her confidence was bashed!
Walking him was impossible because he'd zone out and drag her everywhere. Reacting to everything that passes, cars dogs people etc.
This was unpleasant for all parties and we needed to get him back on board so that everyone could enjoy life together with out anxiety and stress.
This clip was taken within the 1st 5 mins of meeting Allishia and Reggie for the 1st session. We're helping them to work together, building confidence in both! The session was phenominal, Reggie worked beautifully with Allishia and just thrived on being helped to make better decisions!
Building a relationship takes time. Its not about strength when handling a dog of this size , its about your technique and having a healthy relationship
Allishia was introduced into protocol to calm her beautiful dog within the home so that he spent less time anxious and in unhealthy arousal. She is now feeling empowered and confident to lead her dog! Great teamwork👍🐾💗 #xlbully #dogtraining #calmdog #reactivity #positivereinforcment #relationship #breed #overaroused #overwhelmed
Dogs are scavengers.
As well as hunt, they would forage for a variety of foods in the wild such as grasses, herbs, vegetables and fruit.
Introduce REAL FOOD into your dogs diet for health and longevity by creating a more diverse microbiome.🐾🐾
The brain and gut are linked, happy gut, content mind!🐾🐾🐾
Would you want to eat the same processed meal day in, day out without any other choice? 🐾🐾
After just ONE heel work and loose leash walking session Ali sent me this little video clip of the progress she'd made with her beautiful 2 yr. Old Labrador Inka.

You too, may only need one session like Ali and Inka! 🐾
Its a beautiful journey!🐾👍Call if you think you may need help🐾
IN ONE SESSION ONLY!
Teach your dog to work with you on a loose leash!
No forcing, No aversive yanking on the leash. Just clear lines of communication and focus! Slow your dog down and build a relationship of trust and respect for each.
Great teamwork Lyn and Buddy 💖👍👏👌🐾🐾

If your dog is demand barking, they are not relaxed. When they are shouting at you they will be highly aroused, probably anxious and not thinking clearly! Teach your dog that good things happen when they're quiet, by capturing, marking and rewarding quiet. Beautiful 6 month old Dachshund Myla is a fearful little girl that's approaching adolescence and needs to build her confidence. By implementing this simple technique Issie is helping her little dog to be calm and less fearful by empowering her to make wonderful choices that pay well. The Dachshund is a working breed that naturally alert barks. We don't mind her barking, but we want to be able to control her levels of over arousal which send her in to the sympathetic nervous system, increasing her stress hormones, which over time are detrimental to her health and well being.
Working together Issy and Myla are having lots of fun! #barking #stopbarking #dogtraining #trainingtips #dachshund #anxious #calm #workingbreed #puppy #adolescentdog #amazingdogs
To ensure 100% recall, Use the long line as a fail safe, and condition your dog to the sound of a whistle. 'CHARGE UP THE WHISTLE' by pairing it with high value food or a wonderful game of Tug as a Reinforcer. Be consistent, don't give your adolescent dog too much freedom too soon, (even as a trainer I've been guilty of that!) And if your dog does a runner, use this experience as a learning curve to ensure it doesn't happen again😉👌👏🐾💖
Here beautiful Adolescent Astro having a happy time returning to his caregiver💖
