A dog exhibiting unwanted behavior can be a major burden in everyday life. It's easy to reach your limits and feel lost.
The last thing you need in this situation is blame or guilt, because you're already doing your best.
If you wish for you and your dog to become a relaxed team, I'd be happy to help. Often, just a few small changes in your daily routines can lead to a happy life for your dog. Small changes are all it takes to put you on the path to a serene relationship. Many challenges can be overcome quickly and easily, while others require a little more patience, effort, and sense of humor.
Even if your dog is still young and hasn't yet shown any unwanted behavior, it's the perfect time to playfully begin preventative measures. I'd be happy to help you with that.
I look forward to meeting you and your dog
Many people underestimate their dog's need for sleep. If your dog can't calm down, it's often not due to insufficient exercise, especially if you already exercise and walk your dog a lot. Perhaps your dog hasn't yet learned how to properly relax. I'm happy to help you with that. More rest for your dog also helps him react more patiently in other situations, and you gain more time for yourself, allowing you to enjoy a relaxed and happy daily life together.
Your dog can learn to suppress or delay their initial impulse to act. This is very helpful in many areas of a dog's life. It can even help your dog learn to walk well on a leash (lead), because on a walk, a dog has to resist many interesting smells and other temptations to stay by your side and match your pace. It's also important for recall that your dog is used to resisting temptations.
I will help you understand your dog's body language and communicate appropriately and respectfully with your dog using your own body language. Some dog owners can unintentionally appear threatening to their dog, or inadvertently send signals when calling the dog back that actually make it run away. Small changes can make a big difference.
Resources play an important role in your dog's life. To ensure that you and your family can live peacefully with your dog, it's crucial that your dog learns to relinquish resources without reacting aggressively. However, please don't constantly take things away from your dog. This could actually worsen the problem. Together, we'll teach your dog, that a human approaching resources is a positive experience.
Your dog has many different needs. For a dog to lead a happy, contented life and achieve a corresponding balance, it is important to ensure that its needs are met. Water, food, shelter, and healthcare are the basics, followed by species- and breed-appropriate exercise, social contact with people and dogs, and, often underestimated, sufficient sleep and rest
Your dog's behavior is often influenced by feelings. Strong excitement can cause your dog to lose focus and stop performing learned behaviors. Feelings like frustration and fear can lead to aggressive behavior. Through counter-conditioning, we can work together to gradually change your dog's feelings towards environmental stimuli, enabling them to react calmly. This will make your dog calmer and improve their quality of life
