Many of us like that that our dogs 'protect' the home, but with lots of deliveries this time of year it can get annoying.
It can also have negative consequences, not only on your dogs overall behaviour, but legally if they 'catch' someone.
The link below is to a free webinar to control this behaviour.
I'm sure Mike will thank you :)

New blog post - Helping your dog cope with fireworks.

Your dog’s behaviour when fireworks go off may appear irrational, and maybe even at times extreme. The noise, flashes and smell of fireworks can be extremely confusing and fear inducing for dogs. A dog’s brain, as ours, is programmed to react to the environment to protect from harm, perceived or...

Well done everyone at the recent Social club for the Unsociable. All the dogs showed improvement in behaviour around other dogs. 👏👍👏
This snap shot video shows two of the dogs that in the past would lunge aggressively at other dogs on sight.
Now, with support from owners, they are able to remain calmer, look away and 'check in' with handlers, at a managed distance.
A brilliant start to improving behaviour 🌟

I think someone was pleased with their 2nd gotcha day anniversary present from Abuela 😍

I just wanted to share my admiration for the patience and dedication of these owners. 👏🤩👍 Over the past year they have worked tirelessly on supporting their dog with reactivity concerns, focusing on recognising and respecting body language, environment changes, critical distances, and health concerns. This has allowed their dog to have even more trust in his guardians and improve his confidence. In this video he shows he is a little worried but can manage a level of calm around other dogs, he regularly checks in with his owners and when his stress level start to rise (when the black dog walks past), he chooses to return to his owners for reassurance. He does show some mild ‘seeing them off’, as the other dogs walk away, due to the environment change, but recalls perfectly.

Helping you Help your Dog

The key to a happy and healthy dog is looking at the complete picture to having a well rounded, calm, and confident pet. This involves considering the dogs whole well being - diet, health, environment, stimulation and enrichment, exercise and family life within your home.

Dogs often ‘tell’ us they are not happy and that is usually reflected in their behaviour. I hope to support you and give you the skills to understand the signs, this way you can learn how you can help your dog.
