Is your dog reactive or aggressive to other dogs?

Would you like to receive a substantial discount to work with an ABTC registered Clinical Animal Behaviourist?

Are you willing to be part of a practical workshop to help others learn how Roz Pooley rehabilitates dog?

Want to find out more?

Info

We are running a 2 day event that features 4 case studies (1/2 day each).
The dates of the event are 13th & 14th July hosted at ARU Writtle (CM1 3RR)

Each case, the case information and practical preparation videos will be presented to an audience, with a live practical helper-dog set up demonstration to follow.

These helper dog sessions will be the first each case has, so we show an audience how we work with dog-dog issues and potentially demonstrate how we get the vast majority of our cases socialising with helper dogs, quite often in the first session.

An example of how each day will run:

9.30-10.30 am Case 1 information and videos
10.30-11 Break
11-12.45 Practical (helper dog session) + discussion/questions
12.45-1.45 Lunch
1.45-2.45 Case 2 information and videos
2.45-3.15 Break
3.15-4.30 Practical (helper dog session) + discussion/questions

What are we looking for?

Dogs whose main problem behaviour is over reactions and/or aggressive behaviour towards other dogs. Whilst predatory behaviour, over arousal and potential resource guarding behaviours of owners are often associated with dog-dog issues, we cannot take on dogs with other complex behaviour problems such as human directed aggression (owner or unfamiliar persons), separation anxiety etc.

We are taking on 6 cases, but only four will make the live event.
Two may be put on standby, however, if there are any drop outs then one case may be asked to attend twice.

What's expected of cases?

1. You'll need to get a vet referral and medical history from your vet.
2. You'll need to complete an extensive questionnaire.
3. I will meet you on zoom for an initial assessment (1 hour) and will request you whatsapp me some video footage of your dog. This will be early June.
4. I will then meet you for a 1 hour session at your home, mid June. A team member will be with me to film some of your session.
- Behaviour reports will be provided and vets updated.
4. If you are selected to be a case for the event then you will need to collect your dog on the day and arrive 15 minutes before your practical starts.
5. You will then be handling your dog on a helper dog session in front of a live audience (outdoors in a green space) and you will have either myself or a team member supporting you while another handles the helper dog.
6. You will get given the usual email support cases.

As cases will be recorded and attending in person, a discount is applied to our usual assessment fee. Many insurers cover our costs, and this fee will likely be claimable.

The fee to pay is £400.

To help you compare to usual costs:

Assessment ( + 3 months support) with Roz = £500
First follow up for behaviour cases £110-130
1 hour follow ups ongoing £65 per hour
Attendance of a 2 day event £130.00

**As a large discount is given, if you drop out of the seminar (rather than not being a selected case) your support will be stopped unless you opt to book in further follow ups- you will then be worked with as an ongoing client privately.

If you have any unanswered questions, please ask these before submitting the below information.

If you are keen to sign up......

Please email [email protected] (subject title: Mutty Professor Workshop) and answer the below questions. I will then log the information and look to select my cases by mid-May so to book in for early June.

1. Dog's name
2. Dog's age
3. Dog's breed/type
4. Gender and neuter status
5. Describe issue with dogs - detailing specific behaviours (lunging, growling, barking)
6. Does your dog do the above with every dog or specific dogs?
7. At what distance does the behaviour happen?
8. Any other behaviour problems, such as resource guarding or predatory behaviour?
9. Please list any limitations or concerns you have (holidays, physical or emotional limitations, pregnancy etc).

Muzzles aren't just for preventing dog bites; they have a myriad of uses and introduced in a fun and positive manner can be something your dog loves to wear.

Food enrichment is a great way to increase the mental stimulation that your dog receives, and can serve as a form of exercise to help tire them out- especially helpful on days where they may not receive as much exercise!

Dog Law: Collar & Tag
Did you know it’s a criminal offence for your dog to be in a public place without a collar AND tag?

The Control of Dogs Order 1992 states that any dog in a public place MUST wear a collar with the following ESSENTIAL information inscribed on the tag or the collar itself:
• Owner’s name (Minimum required: Surname)
• Full Address (House number & postcode ONLY = Compliance remains questionable)

Optional information includes:
• Dog's name
• Owners phone number (recommended in case your dog goes missing)

Dog tags inscribed with a QR code or digital dog tags are modernised versions of the dog tag, however, the legislation states the information MUST BE INSCRIBED on the tag or collar, and therefore this may not be fully compliant.

Keep your dog safe by keeping your information up to date!
