Hats off to Toby's dedicated owners asking for help and putting so much effort into helping him make better decisions when seeing other dogs.
They only have him a short time and he's making so much progress with his on lead reactivity towards other dogs.
This is Toby's second session and we still have a lot of work to do to make him feel better about other dogs when he is on lead.
In the first part of the video, our calm stooge dog Possum is sitting quietly with her back towards us about 50 yards away.
Within this session, we managed to get Toby to be ok with parallel walking alongside Possum. This is not about walking nicely on lead, it's about coping with another dog near by, the movement of himself and the other dog and be able to happily play with his ball and take treats nearby the other dog. The family are doing great, proud of Toby and thanks for trusting us to help you through this.
Thanks to fellow Instructor Ciara from Oracle Dogs and Possum for being so patient and staying calm during this session.
Onwards and upwards, we got this!
