Do you know how to discern between a behavioral issue and a medical one? Hegel came to us for training to get more compliance on his core obedience and reduce squirming and nipping behavior.
However, after working with him for a short time, we took a look at his structure and found some joint problems that were likely causing pain. In his best interest, we sent sweet boy Hegel home early with a credit to come back for training at a later time, after seeing a specialist vet who can help him with the medical concerns likely causing his behavior.
In behavioral dog training, it's always wise to consider the underlying cause of a behavior. We are excited for him to get the joint help he needs to feel better in his body, and we are all looking forward to seeing him for training at a later time!
Good luck Hegel! 🥰
