RESIDENTIAL TRAINING ‼️‼️‼️‼️

Here we have
Leo the male GSD(Reactive)
&
Vinny the male Dobermann (Reactive) in with us for residential training.

Also joining us on our walk is Bruno another reactive male Dobermann with his female owner Eliza.
Leo the GSD owners traveled a very long way from the Guernsey 🇬🇬 to get to us as do a lot of dogs that come from all over the UK 🇬🇧 & internationally.
Absolutely fantastic how amazing the progress has been with these dogs now walking calmly alongside other dogs let alone other reactive dogs, doing recall in high distraction areas, being multi handled and so much more 💯💯🐾🐕🐕🐕✅✅

People have no idea of the damage they are doing to their dogs, as a behaviourist this type of clueless person will be the one going on social media “How do I fix my dog” and expect a quick fix

One of the most frustrating things I see in dog training & ownership

Engagement with your dog is extremely important not just for the dog but for you the owner too, engaging with your dog is far more than just taking your dog for a walk or a training session, engagement to your dog should look like fun but within that fun is your training and it should not be repetitive so it’s dynamic constantly evolving so you both learn about each other, what works, what doesn’t work, what motivates both the dog and you so the dog wants to be with you.
Engagement with your dog is a skill far few trainers teach to their members because they focus far to much on what the client thinks they need instead of what they actually are missing.

We have lots of videos in our subscribers section on exactly this issue and what to do and i currently have a 12 month old reactive male Dobermann that’s got various behavioural issues such as reactivity towards dogs, lunging/barking at people, lunging at prams, scooters, obsessive behaviour such as chasing his tail so first we teach a dog like this what it is to engage with me the trainer through play/fun and go from there

Leo the GSD (Reactive)

Leo has come all the way from the Guernsey 🇬🇬Island a 2 day trip to get to us here in Kent, as his owners don’t trust anyone else but us with him.

If you follow our page you will have seen Leo came to us previously with extreme reactivity, we worked very hard to turn him around and the results have been absolutely phenomenal and life changing for both Leo & his family.
So now here is Leo back with us again while his owners take a well deserved vacation, and where would they send him ? Of course to us the trainers that fixed him in the first place 💯

Leo being anywhere near another dog or a cat before attending our residential training program would have been absolutely impossible, now with myself & Samantha pushing his training nothing is impossible.

We now have a dog that is an absolute pleasure to have and every single visit the owners are constantly surprised on what we achieve with this handsome male GSD 💯❤️❤️🐾🐾✅🐕🐕💥

Leo is walking beautifully alongside other dogs as well as being free off lead running around with dogs NOW THATS PROGRESS

RESIDENTIAL TRAINING ‼️‼️‼️‼️

Reactive 12 month old Dobermann

This dog unfortunately went to another trainer as the owners wanted to try another dog trainer local to them, and all that happened is absolutely fucx all, the dog is now reactive towards dogs, scooters, cyclists, wheelchairs, prams, and pretty much everything in between, so now I have a tremendous amount of work with this young 12 month old dog.

Message now from the owners:

Hi Michael, hope you’re well! I brought Rio to your group classes last year.

We initially came to you for lead pulling, but after a while my mum and sister wanted to try another trainer to work on his manners at home but it hasn’t worked. Rio’s now just turned one and his behaviour has become very challenging, particularly on walks.

He’s reactive – lunging and barking at bikes, e-scooters, motorbikes, wheelchairs and prams. He also fixates on other dogs, throws himself to the ground to stare, and in the last few days has started lunging/barking at random people walking past. We’re struggling with the walks as we’re being dragged around and me and mum have had knee issues as a result.

Remember the trainer that tells you straight and is firm with you the owner is much better than the one that blows smoke up your ass so you attend their classes.

This dog has severe bite history he attacked the owner on the head as he was on his knees and lent in towards him.
Axle also has severe behavioural issues such as light/shadow chasing again this has massively improved since being with us for residential training, so very pleased with this dog’s progress.

Now what a difference with this young male and everyone was interacting with him today as well as him working around other dogs 🐕💯🐾🐾🐾✅✅❤️❤️💥
