The real reason why so many dogs go missing and become so inappropriate.
It is because you are raising dependent dogs!
Not all dogs can handle affection the same way, some dogs do not need any correcting, there's no inappropriate behavior.
Others the other hand, Not so true.
You may not be aware of how dependent dogs are created. When you constantly submit to your dog and your dog has behavioral issues,
This is when things need to change.
When your dog is on the bed and the couch and you're holding them all of the time, you're submitting to them, your Giving them a feeling of power, they now are above you.
When you do this you become a possession, and this is when things go Bad.
More than likely it's also your house, your car, the dog thinks it owns everything, The World is theirs they own it all!!
It thinks it's the general of the army, the captain of the ship.
You in fact are creating a monster!
If you have any behavioral problems, this is for YOU.
It is so important you understand how many different ways you submit to your dog Daily It truly is mind-blowing you would not know you're doing it.
Dogs do much better as followers than leaders.
By Getting proper exercise and Understanding what proper engagements are It makes training the dog so much easier, the need for big Corrections becomes minimal.
So stop Creating Dependent Dogs, For the benefit of the Dog.

If you seriously want to fix your dog.
LEARN HOW TO GO WITH THE TIDE, NOT AGAINST IT.
😉

We Didn't Think It Could Be Done!

Before I get into some of the details, here's the one sentence headline:

Our training with Joe has been an unqualified success and he has done for us exactly what he said he would do. If we knew then what we know now, we would have done this ages ago.

Ok, so that was two sentences, sorry.

How did we get here?

Our dog Enzo, five and a half at the time he started with Joe, had been under-socialized. The result was that he was reactive with other dogs - nervous about life and the world (can relate!) and had figured out that he could cause other dogs and people to leave him alone if he barked and lunged and generally acted scary.

We had a neighborhood reputation of having the sort of dog where you cross the street when you see 'em. Not. Great.

Enzo was amazing with us at home but since he unpredictable with others, it bred a pattern of insularity where we didn't invite people over, didn't take him to meet other dogs and the like. Enzo was alone on our little island - he was getting out to walk but not really experiencing the world the way a dog should be able to. Enzo was overly sheltered because we were nervous.

If this sounds like your situation, keep reading because it doesn't have to be this way!

We had done training before with, at best, so-so results. Even though it was not our first time, I don't think we realized it could be done so differently.

I will say, when we first talked to Joe, our initial impression was: 'whoa, this guy is sort of hardcore'. There were rules that he told us we needed to impose if we wanted to be successful that we hadn't even thought of as problems.

Nothing unreasonable but definitely changes in our regular routine and a more disciplined approach. That was new - previous trainers didn't have much to say about the big picture or changing the home life, though in retrospect, this part was critical.

We met for our first day - a multi-hour session to get everything started. We didn't know what to expect but we were willing to give it a go and let him direct us. Our expectation was that it would take at least weeks to see results.

We were wayyyyyy wrong. Even after that first session, we made major progress.

Joe's philosophy is to help dogs be dogs and it turns out that when you swim with the tide instead of against it, things go a lot more smoothly.

Enzo is a changed dog. Our lives are better and most importantly his life is much better. He's out running and playing with other dogs daily, something that we thought was impossible just weeks ago.

Joe delivers and we give him a hearty recommendation.
