Welcome Specks to PK9! š
Specks is here for our behavioral modification program to address some severe dog reactivity, introductions to new dogs, figuring out why he gets a tad snappy when people pet him, and, overall, learning how to slow down. As things progressed, he began redirecting onto both his brother dog and his mom during reactive outbursts.
His mom has been on quite the journey with him, working with a few different trainers to figure out the cause of the issueānot just the symptoms. Thatās exactly how we approach behavior. We always look a layer deeper, because what youāre seeing on the surface usually isnāt the root cause.
So far, weāve met a sweet guy with an incredibly racing mind, a lack of stimulation, purpose, and proper socialization.
Weāre so excited to dive into his mind, figure out how he best communicates, and help open up his worldāand his momās worldāto hikes, guests, safety, and the freedom that comes with a quiet, calm mind. We canāt wait to show you his journey.
