Reactive and anxious dogs 🐶
We talk a lot about dogs body language , and what we should look out for , but what about the body language we are giving to our dogs?
Are we setting our dogs up to fail? How are we responding to the situation ? Dogs respond to our body language and our heart rate remarkably, so if we are panicking about a dog approaching, so will they.

Words can’t describe how PROUD I am of this dog🤍
From seeing other dogs and screaming on her back legs , to this. What a huge improvement.
I have been walking Apple for a year now , and the change from the day I met her has been wonderful .
In this video, the dogs across the road were playing and making some noise. A year ago , I’d have had to walk in the opposite direction , but now we can quietly walk past barking dogs calmly and happily .
It is so important to realise your dogs first signs of stress or anxiety that could lead to a reaction so you are able to help and guide them.
A big gold star to this pup🐾 #dogtrainer #stalbansdogs #harpendendogs #redbourndogs

Top tip 🔝 🐾
Playing with your dog in a training session is so important. You’ll notice some huge improvements. Have fun with your dog! #dogtraining #stalbans #harpenden #dogwalker
Working on impulse control is so important, especially if you have a dog with a drive 🐾 #dogtrainer #dogwalker #dogsofstalbans #dogbehavior #impulsecontrol
Place training🐾
Such an important command (and helpful) for your dog to know !
It can be a great way to help teach your dog to settle in busy/new environments, or even asking them to go onto their bed at night.
Not only is the command helpful, it can be fun too! You can get you dog to place on a bench in the park , on a log for a photo , the list goes on!
Let me know how your dog got on with this, and if you need any additional help, get in touch!
*Liv’s canines will soon be offering training*
