Bella is a boxer who has possibly had abuse prior to the current owners rehoming her . She was reactive to men and especially caps ,hoodies ,dark clothing etc. Barker at the door and lunge at guests. Both herself and the owners did very well and soon after applying the programming exercises she settled to the point of pats and no barks at unknown visitors. As it happens during the lesson some visitors she didn't know arrived. Well done team Bella the Boxer

Oakley is a Golden retriever unneutered male of 8mths of age . The owner was struggling with his focus and listening to commands and control as he would jump , pull ,has separation anxiety , rush guests and generally far to boisterous and over exuberant. Her biggest issue was Oakley would not get into her car even though the older dog would. During the lesson by using the dogs pack rules and communication he started to respond well. Our second session is soon and we'll fine tune what is still a work in progress. Nice work so far Oakley and mum.

Thanks Catherine. It's amazing what a bit of leadership does to help a dog settle into a new home. And it goes to show that even a 7- year-old dog can learn new tricks. Well done everyone!

Bobby is a beautiful big Boxer boy. From Buller west coast. Since dad passed, mum had struggled to get on top of some of his behaviours as he's decided to be pack leader in the house , barking too strongly at arrivals,pulling and recall but also jumping up and starting to play rough with nipping. He responded very well and now the chook feeding routine is much more controlled among other things. Just one session so far but huge improvements all credit to Mum for applying the speakdog process. Well done both of you.

Ahhh little Charli. Lovely wee guy but definitely thinks he needs to be protector of all. Vey barky at arrivals both at home and at the retail shop .Major fear aggression at the vets, will bite. So the lesson went well , he responded well and stated focusing, we got to the vets with much less reaction than usual although that will be a work in progress but initially showing great promise of toning down his bossiness. Nice work Charli and Mum.
