This is what most of my walks with Blue look like. We don’t go far, but we do explore the world together.

We have a plan to work on what we need to work on to get use to our end goals.

Those goals are mine of course but I help him to be able to navigate our world and what we need from him as best I can.

The more you meet your dog’s needs, the more they’ll meet yours.

We do something with our dog -> it goes wrong -> we try to fix it or ask how we can make it stop.

Stop

BEFORE you do something with your dog that will go wrong. Ask what you can do differently to make it easier and do that instead.

Chances are, it’ll go well and you and your dog will learn something.

Practice this for a while and then make it slightly hard.

PROACTIVELY train your dog by doing everyday tasks differently.

🚨 but…I want to be upfront and be transparent that it takes work.

My boy is anxious around noises, fast movements and a National Trust place could feel pretty overwhelming. I wanted to let you know what we’ve done to be able to get to this point:

- for the most part, when we first adopted him, his walks were ONLY in quiet, low level areas in order to build confidence and do the work. No exceptions.

- I do a lot of trust building and confidence building exercises daily.

- Our day out is focused around him as much as possible. We take breaks when he needs, we get space when he needs space.

- He gets lots of treats and rewards!

- We go home when he’s had enough.

- If it wasn’t a good idea for him and his welfare, we wouldn’t do it.

‘Training’ is not what you need for your reactive dog…and that’s why it hasn’t worked in the past.

Training a reactive dog is like trying to get me to do a maths equation when a murderer is chasing me.

You’ll be lucky if I can do it and, if you force me to, my fear is still going to show itself at some point.

First we have to deal with the fear itself and we do that by addressing how our dog feels.

Your dog is not aggressive, they’re scared.

Scared dogs want the world to give them space and what scared dogs usually get instead is pressured.

Human example:

Say you have high level social anxiety - what do you need?
- space
- time
- for people to ask permission
- time to decompress
- predictably
- routine
- to feel safe

Now imagine that you have high level social anxiety and you get very little of the above AND you’re attached to someone via a rope that connects to your neck.

Your body will usually choose one or two methods of coping - shut down or aggression. For us, aggression might look like shouting, snapping, lashing out or trying to snap the rope that traps us.

Understanding your dog’s fear is the first step to helping them with it.

If you need help with your dog’s anxiety, drop us a DM. We can help.
