BEHAVIOURAL MODIFICATION
Struggling with challenging behaviours? Make a difference, to you and your dog
I wholeheartedly believe that the most effective way to address behavioural issues is getting to the root cause of the issue, instead of sticking pretty bows and frills on with your bang average training (no offence). By that, I mean I don’t train your dog to do tricks when they struggle with reacting to other dogs, or giving your nervous dog a conflicting behaviour when they’re visibly uncomfortable. Instead, I take a holistic approach to how I can help both of you with your communication styles and enhance your bond with fun stuff that will benefit you in the real world. Exposure therapy is often used too much - flooding dogs with things they find scary, or not at all - hiding behind cars to manage on your daily walk. By strengthening your relationship, interpreting your dog’s body language, and giving you a new tool box of skills; I can help you understand and get on the right path.
What’s covered by BMs?
Don’t punish the problem, teach the solution
Behavioural Modification sessions concentrate on addressing more complex behaviours, or a couple of less complex issues that you’d like to focus on.
These sessions emphasise on the modification of behaviours, whilst equipping you with new strategies to strengthen your teamwork. This collaborative approach not only fosters a deeper bond but is especially beneficial for dogs adjusting to a new home, facing short-term behavioural challenges, or experiencing changes in their environment.
Please ensure that you’ve completed an Initial Assessment before booking BMs. But once that’s done, feel free to book weekly or fortnightly to ensure that you’ve got the right amount of support from me, and of course, the best results need consistency!
“Meg has been absolutely fantastic with my Romanian Rescue. Luana is petrified of people but very quickly warmed up to Meg which was lovely to see. She has also helped me understand Luana’s fears better and how to help her navigate the world with confidence. Can’t wait for the next lot of sessions with Meg.”
