For beautiful Bella’s 3rd session she came to have a mooch around my garden. Most dogs would fly around checking everything out straight away, but for Bella it’s not that easy. More than likely she missed out on crucial socialisation and habituation when she was young causing her now to be very unsure of people and the world around her. She has ended up with the loveliest home and people who she feels safe with.
Over the last few sessions we’ve been working on giving her a safe space for when visitors come and building her confidence.
For her session in my garden, she was unsure at first but we went at her pace. She slowly explored and sniffed everything. We allowed her to make her own choices and did some confidence building exercises. She booped my hand for treats and was comfortable to have me around which was so lovely to see❤️
