building the right skills for the journey
Life Skills
When you bring home a new dog, whether a puppy or an adult dog, you're excited to begin your journey together! Visions of hiking, snuggling, and evenings at the pub dance in your head. But navigating the human world requires a number of skills that are contradictory to our dog's natural instincts. Something as basic (to us) as taking a walk can become a daily stressor.
Training is a way to give your dog a translation guide, so that you can communicate and speak the same language. Communication is the key to teaching your dog the skills that will help them be successful in your daily routine. Through training, you deepen your bond and set both of you up for success by providing clarity and predictability for your dog.
Behavior Challenges
It's hard on you and your dog when they are struggling with behaviors such as lunging and barking on leash, guarding food or other items, having difficulty getting along with other animals in the home, and so on. Although behaviors like these are concerning, frustrating, and sometimes even embarrassing or scary, from our dog's perspective they make sense and serve a purpose.
We'll work together to identify why these behaviors are happening so that we can develop an effective approach and training plan.
