DOES YOUR DOG HAVE ISSUES WITH OTHER DOGS?
Let me show you how to be proactive with your dog's issues with other dogs.
WHAT IS PROACTIVE PAWS©?
Proactive Paws© is a course for owners with dogs that display unwanted behaviour towards unfamiliar dogs taught by Katey Aldred Clinical Animal Behaviourist. This is suitable for over-excitement, frustration or aggressive displays.
Katey has extensive knowledge and skills within this area of behaviour. Proactive Paws is designed with the owner in mind to teach owners about the nuisances of behaviour, what drives unwanted behaviour and what maintains the unwanted behaviour.
You will learn about management and behaviour modification techniques to utilise with your dog. In addition, you will gain practical skills on how to apply the information you are given. You will be taught how to be proactive about the issue you are faced with rather than keep waiting for your dog to display unwanted behaviour and then try to deal with it afterwards.
Proactive Paws is for the singular issue of dog-to-dog problems. If your dog displays dog-to-dog issues plus another issue you need the full behaviour service. Not sure if you need training or behaviour help? Complete the 1-2-1 application form below
