HOW DOES BACK TO BALANCE CANINE BEHAVIOURIST WORK?

Over the years I have tried many different methods of working with dogs, both as a dog trainer, and a dog behaviourist, and have to say that something which may work for one dog will not necessarily work with another.

For example, you would not use the same techniques to teach a dog heelwork to music that you would use to train a dog to take down an armed robber. There is such a vast selection of methods available it is no surprise that dog owners are left feeling somewhat overwhelmed as to what they should be doing.

Personally, I have found that the most effective way to assist a dog in rehabilitation is to help them to teach themselves. The vast majority of unwanted behaviours have been brought about either as a result of neglect, environmental influence or a lack of understanding and knowledge from the owner.

Owners do not teach separation anxiety, pulling on a lead, possessiveness or reactivity etc..

my aim

My aim is to show and explain to owners why these behaviours have started and then help to reverse them. In return, the dog then starts to rehabilitate its self simply because the way they are being treated and understood each day has changed.

 

harsh methods

I am in no way an advocate of harsh methods, I do not use e-collars, prong collars, shouting, beating and so on. Control by way of fear is not something I would promote on any level. Your dog should act as you want, not because it has to but because it wants to.

 

sessions

My sessions are carried out in your own home with yourself and your pet and are very much hands on. After identifying the root cause of the problem and then showing you myself how this can be prevented and reversed. I will put YOU in control so that by the time I leave you are happy and confident in what needs to be done to return your pet to a more balanced and happy life.
