Yesterday I had the pleasure of working with Nellie the French Bulldog and Ralph the German Spitz.
Both dogs struggle with reactivity, not only towards other dogs, but also around visitors entering the home, along with a range of other behavioural challenges.
Our first session focused on setting them up for success through management strategies, introducing a new routine, enrichment activities, and foundation focus work.
Nellie, who can be particularly wary of people, made some fantastic progress during the session. By the end, she was comfortable enough to let me move freely around the house and was even taking treats while we worked on focus exercises together.
There is still a long journey ahead for both dogs and their owners, but every journey starts with those first few steps. If they stay consistent and put the work in, I have no doubt that Nellie and Ralph will become an absolute delight both at home and out in the world. 🐶🐾
