Majority of the time, reactivity is anxiety-based (fear, frustration, or over-excitement). It is triggered by external stimuli, dogs, people, objects, sounds, etc. Reactive dogs have associated the triggers with emotion (fear, frustration, excitement) based on their past experiences, and when the dogs notice the triggers, the emotions take over, stress increases dramatically, then leading to reactive behaviours such as barking, lunging, growling... So, the behaviour modification must start with the root cause = softening negative emotions to something more positive. To learn more, join our upcoming webinar and virtual workshop series, Bark & Lunge: Dogs that react to other dogs on leash. This 1st series are focused on leash reactivity. The information can be found on our website happyfidocompany.com/webinars. (You can register online at the same link.) Spots are limited; only 2 spots available now. Hope to see you there!
