Each dog is an individual with their own learning history, internal and external environment, genetics and self. Creating long lasting solutions to behavioural issues involves understanding how to change the emotional root of the behaviour otherwise we are just suppressing the behaviour. Suppression can seem like it works temporarily however the emotional disturbance is still present and will likely resurface or manifest in other ways.

As a Certified Family Dog Mediator and Certified Behaviour Adjustment Trainer, I take a holistic approach. I put together an integrative training plan to address the whole picture of behaviour. Behaviour is often multifaceted and by taking a multipronged approach, we are more likely to create behaviour change and see results. I also utilise behaviour adjustment training to empower your dog to make different decisions when faced with a potential trigger.
