If you’re living/working/dealing with a ‘dog reactive dog’, then there is one absolute CERTAINTY …

That CERTAINTY is that other dog owners don’t care.

Your dog’s problem is not their problem.

They couldn’t give a toss about what ‘stage’ you are at in your training. Their dogs care even less.

The world will does not recognise your ‘thresholds’, much as you wished that it did.

The reality is, the thing you dread happening WILL happen. Repeatedly.

So you (like us) have a choice.

Blame the world, sink into resentment and pity your dog - or get out there and show your dog EXACTLY what is required from them.

What is and what isn’t acceptable and why.

Unfortuantrly, a yellow collar or lead patch saying ‘anxious’ or ‘give me space’ won’t do that for you.

Get help if you need help. But don’t expect the unexpected not to happen, because it absolutely will.

These two off lead dogs came running up, barking at Honey who is being worked through her own aggressive, vocal outbursts.

She’s on lead and under close control but believe me, if the s**t hit the fan it wouldn’t be the smaller dogs that copped the blame

But because we know that other dogs will rush over whilst their owner whistles to thin air, we’ve got a plan and we’re using them (and dogs like them) to make the plan work.

Much of Honey’s progress has been and will be available on my Skills4Life program.

Hey, just thought I’d pop a post up about a wee something extra we do…
We have a few dogs who are sometimes collected or dropped off to another home other than their own.
Today I dropped a dog off to their home boarder after their regular walk as owner left for holiday this morning.
And another two dogs off to another home too!
So if dogs may need to be elsewhere for whatever reason, this is something we can help with locally.

No additional travel fee if collection/drop off is already on our route or is just off route. A wee travel fee may apply if outwith route.

I am also insured as a pet taxi 👀 sooo if you have doggy appointment’s such as groomers, vets etc that you may need a hand with then give me a message to see if something can be arranged - prices will vary due to duration/day/time/travel
