KOKO & HER SISTERS
Although small & sweet these girls had a very tumultuous relationship. Koko being a Resource Guarder, has caused a rift in the dynamics of their relationship. She guarded everything from her sisters. Food, toys and space which often caused her to attack. Koko was very fearful & anxious barking at strangers & strange dogs. The owners did their best by socializing with them as they grew to no avail with Koko. However, with a big dose of trigger & stress management and a medicinal intervention the girls are progressing nicely, being friends again. So, proud of their progress.
CLIENT COMMENTS:
Koko is a changed girl and we are so happy with all the results of everything. We still isolate her when food comes out but no injuries to her or from her to the other dogs. Can’t thank you enough. I can tell you that she isn’t snapping at the others for things that previously caused aggression. We still separate her for meals and playtime but just things like going to bed and lifting up another dog on to the bed to pet or cuddle would drive her to snap but now she’s accepting it. In fact the other dogs are still scared to come up onto the bed at night if she’s on it but we invite them up to the bed and she goes back to sleep and minding her own business. She’s 80% better. Thanks again!🥰
