❌Medicate❌Don’t walk❌Avoid❌distract
This month we are fighting hard and offered a 50% reduction for anyone who has been given the advice to medicate and not walk their reactive or aggressive or nervous dog!
Predictably, extreme force free trainers come and say “we don’t say that, we don’t give that advice, we don’t recommend medication, we don’t say not to walk them”
Today is day 3 of our offer June and already I’ve assessed 12 dogs and guess what 10 of them had been told not to walk their dogs OR to only walk at quiet times, OR IN A GRAVEYARD AT 5am 😱😱 (advice given to a female owner) and 5 have been or are still on Fluoxetine/Reconcile including Roscoe the GSD in the video who came for an assessment from Scotland and has been medicated for 18 months 😱😱
This clip is him meeting me at the start of the session (2 hours) Let me know if you want to see the video of him at the end of the session 🥰🥰 advice given to work on what we practiced for 2 weeks to build confidence and skills and trust in the owner and then to start reducing the medication (under vets supervision)
I’ll keep the page updated on the statistics as the month progresses - so far it’s pretty devastating!!
