The Types of Dogs We Work With
Do you work with aggressive dogs?
Yes. We work with dogs who display aggressive behaviours such as growling, snapping, or biting, where it is safe and appropriate to do so. These behaviours are carefully assessed and approached with a strong emphasis on safety, management, and understanding the underlying causes rather than simply suppressing symptoms.
Do you work with reactive dogs?
Yes. We regularly support dogs who struggle around other dogs, people, or environments. This may include barking, lunging, freezing, avoidance, or heightened arousal. Our work focuses on reducing stress, improving emotional responses, and helping dogs feel safer and more confident.
Do you work with fearful or anxious dogs?
Absolutely. Fear and anxiety are common reasons dogs struggle, and they are often misunderstood. We work at the dog’s pace to build confidence, predictability, and coping skills, using calm, supportive, and evidence-based methods.
Do you work with multi-dog households?
Yes, where appropriate. Household dynamics are assessed carefully to ensure support is safe and effective for all dogs involved.
Do you work with rescue dogs?
Absolutely. Many rescue dogs benefit greatly from structured, compassionate behaviour support that allows them to feel safe and understood.
Do you work with puppies and adolescent dogs?
Yes. Early support is invaluable, particularly for confidence building, social exposure, and preventing behaviour problems from developing.
Do you work with adult and senior dogs?
Yes. Dogs are capable of learning at any age. Training and behaviour support can be adapted to suit adult and senior dogs, taking into account physical health, previous learning experiences, and lifestyle needs.
Are there dogs you do not work with?
We aim to work ethically and safely. In rare cases, we may recommend alternative support or additional professional involvement if a case falls outside what we can safely or appropriately provide. Any such guidance is always given with the dog’s welfare as the priority.
