Boundaries & Limitations Therapy
Is your dog ruling the home and causing chaos?
We teach you how to take your home and remote back, and we will show you how to set some new rules in the home in the way the dog understands. Teaching boundaries and limitations is crucial to having a good healthy bond with your dog. If you don't have a balance of love and respect, your relationship will struggle.
Loving too much can destroy a dog as they think their doo doo don't stink and you are their maid or butler, and boy can they make demands on you. Vocally or just simple destruction.
Dogs actually thrive on direction and you need to start, as they are early wanting to please. We destroy that natural process, by simply loving and doting on them at their whim. We now need to unlearn some behaviours, in order to rehabilitate them into loving and pleasing pets.
Taking top spot shows your dog you care for and will supply everything he/she needs. Protection, warmth, care, nurturing and best of all, food! And you need to be in control of it all.

In our private 2 hour session Sandy and I will work intensively on the issues that you are struggling with and we will set up the situation so you can get hands on, practicing your body language understanding, and also learn the cues and sounds that effectively will stop and redirect your dogs behaviour using non-aversive action.
I will leave you material to study and follow, and you'll have free phone follow-up for a month following the session if you have any questions.
Focus, breathe and own your leadership.
