🐕🦺🐕🦺Have you got a reactive dog?🐕🦺🐕🦺
Reactivity doesn’t just affect our dogs. It can take a big emotional toll on us as owners.
Tutting strangers, unwanted and unhelpful advice and dirty looks can make for anxiety inducing walks.
Owners of reactive dogs can feel ashamed, embarrassed, frustrated and a failure, it can even cause friction between couples and family rifts.
Over the years I’ve had many owners cry in front of me, on the phone to me and I’ve even had one owner thank me for being so nice to her. She thought I was going to tell her that she had caused and facilitated her dogs reactivity and it was going to be a demoralising experience.
The fact is dogs are emotional beings and they get upset about stuff and it’s my job to help you help your dog manage their feelings and I know that your dogs reactivity although your responsibility, isn’t your fault.
If you need help reducing your dogs reactivity and you want to enjoy your dogs walks again message, call or email me.
