Reactive Dogs
Do you wish you could just go on walks and enjoy them with your dog?
Want to be able to walk down the road without your dog reacting fearfully to things like dogs, cars &/or people?
Long to not feel embarrassed or confused about why your dog is reactive and to understand them more?
What is a reactive dog?
Basically reactivity by dictionary definition refers to chemicals and it is how something reacts when mixed with something else. This actually applies quite well to dogs and what we think of as reactivity, it is an action they perform when reacting to something added to their world/environment.
You may have a super calm dog, leash walking happily, suddenly a bus enters their field of vision and boom they react to that with barking and lunging. Reactivity is largely (but not exclusively) fear based, helping and supporting your dog through their reaction and back to balance in the right way for them is really important as it will affect whether that behaviour escalates or diminishes over time.
The most frequent reactivity I help with is:
- Cars/Buses/Motorbikes/Bicycles – Barking and lunging as they pass by
- Lead/leash walking – Barking and lunging at passing people or dogs whilst on lead
There are of course lots of other scenarios that reactivity can occur but but whatever help you are looking for you can contact me and I will be happy to discuss solutions and suggest the best training route to take to move forward and help your dog find its way through reactivity and back to balance.
