Most people have their own idea of what constitutes a good and well-behaved dog. Jumping, pulling, barking, door dashing, food stealing, digging are some common complaints. Sometimes a multitude of issues will affect the owners quality of life or even pose a danger to a dog. A door dasher can get hit by a car, a food stealer can get a hold of something toxic, like chocolate. Some people only have one issue. We have a solution to each issue. This German Shepherd had a few issues: Nipping, pulling, jumping, barking, nipping the staff in their condo lobby, They had received complaints from Condo Association, to train her or she would have to go. In addition to training I recommended Day Care.
Program for dogs who react negatively to people and dogs on a leash or at home. The behavior will be diagnosed in detail then explained to the owner. A program is designed and training starts. Behaviors are explained and homework provided. Deaf Boxer, rescued. OK of leash, but the neighborhood terror on leash on her own street.
This is a program for some of the most problematic behaviors. Issues that require Behavior Modification include: Aggression, Food Aggression, Leash Reactive, Separation Anxiety, Thunder and Lightning fear, Fears and Phobias, submissive urination and more. The dog needs to be properly diagnosed in order to get the right kind of training. Many owners attempt to correct these issues themselves by ordering shock collars, prong collars, yelling and even hitting the dog. Some of these methods can escalate the behavior rather than correct it. Sugar had been trained with e collar in Vegas. She would bite worker type men and new visitors. Switched her to reward based training and clicker training. Desensitized her to especially men.
