Aggression Dog Barking

AGGRESSION IN DOGS - TRAINING WORKSHOPS

IMPROVE YOUR KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS FOR HELPING YOUR DOG

*NEW DATES COMING - Please register your interest below

Are you struggling with your dog pulling, barking and lunging when you’re out on walks? Or showing reactive behaviour at home or other situations?  These workshops are designed as an introduction to help understand aggressive behaviour in dogs – what causes it, what to look for, how to help your dog feel calmer and improve their behaviour so you can both enjoy a happier life together!

There are 2 workshops which will benefit owners of dogs of all kinds, the first workshop is education-based (humans only) focusing on understanding common causes for aggressive behaviour, what to look for and how you can best support your dog in training and their daily lives to help them feel calmer and happier. The second workshop is a hands-on to build on the information shared in the first workshop and help you develop technical skills and knowledge for setting up your dog for success in planned and unplanned situations.

I’d recommend attending both of the workshops if you can however if the dates don’t work, let me know as I will be looking to host more of these in the coming months for interested owners.

PLEASE NOTE: There are limited ‘working’ spots in the second workshop for owners to bring their dogs, however everyone attending will still get hands-on experience to take away and practice with your own dogs. Working spots will be required to contact me directly so I can assess the suitability of the dogs (from a safety and welfare perspective). See details below.
