What causes problems Behaviour?

In the majority of cases, problem behaviour in a dog results from a lack of understanding by the owner. There exists a great deal of myth and misinformation about dog training - this leads to handling errors which confuse the dog. For this reason, an important aspect of our work is owner-education. We take great care and time to teach you and your family how to handle your dog both to prevent both the recurrence of existing problems and the development of other unwanted behaviour.

Where do we deal with the problem?

In most cases, it will be necessary to visit your home to engage with the dog in its own environment. Sometimes it is possible, or preferable, to bring the dog to us and occasionally a personal consultation to discuss solutions will be sufficient.

How Do We Deal with Problem Behaviour?

Solutions for most problems can be found in a single consultation lasting around two hours. We work with you and your dog to make an accurate diagnosis of the cause of the undesirable behaviour. We then design and set in place a specific modification programme to change the behaviour.
