Anxious Roo
The importance of taking your time with anxious or fearful dogs!
When a dog won’t take treats or will not walk- take this as information!
How is your dog feeling?
Why do they not want to walk?
How can we advocate for them in this situation?
How can we build confidence ?
By doing so you can start really understanding the why behind behaviours and instead of focusing on the problem “My dog won’t walk” we start to think of the solution “How can I get the dog to feel comfortable enough to walk”
Just a slight change of mindset can be huge !

Whistle Recall ! Check out the speed on her returning to her owner !!
Start of some Restrained Recall this morning! So proud of how little Rita did today x
Let’s talk about one of my most asked about topics…. RECALL!!
Not only is it nice to have a dog you can have off the lead but it is also a life saving skill!
There are so many factors that can hinder Recall, whether that be environmental (Birds, Other Dogs, People )Diet, Lack of training or inconsistent training, health issues that may affect their hearing or cognitive abilities, Reward, Variation and stress or anxiety level just to name a few!
At the beginning of the video, you can see Otto had no interest in being with me or near me… however once we got some focus and some new reward schedules we were able manage the experience even better and make us the best place to be!
Let’s make Training Fun!
Here at Prestige Dog Training, We not only are interested in the Dog’s emotional response to Stimuli and what is underneath the “unwanted” behaviour we also want to make training fun! Because why would you not want to learn and have fun at the same time?
Dogs actually learn even faster when they are having fun during training!
Multi- Dog Boundaries!
Why are they helpful?
