My journey with changing a dog's behaviour through Games started a few years back when we adopted Bogart as an adult rescue from a shelter. He had quite a few issues when he came to us and when I eventually came across Games as a way of training to improve his behaviour, everything changed for the better. We developed a great bond and I was finally able to help him (and me)! Emotions drive Behavio

ur - how your dog feels toward something, will determine their reaction. If they don't have the skills to cope, they will react inappropriately. You can up-skill your dog by working on specific Skills (also called Concepts) of which there are many, such as Recall, Focus, Calm, Disengagement from distractions (lunging, barking) and Re-Engagement with you, Optimism, Confidence, Independence, Proximity (staying closer to you) and more, by playing short behaviour-changing Games making it a positive, interactive and fun way to train, build and repair your relationship, and change your dog's underlying emotions and thereby their behavioural outcome in situations. Learning through Play is powerful and long-lasting. These Games are for any breed, any age, any problem behaviour issues.
