Milo, Andorra, and Franklin recently attended our Milo, Andorra, and Franklin recently attended our K9 Enrichment Workshop. They had so much fun trying different forms on enrichment and mental stimulation. They enjoyed playing the shell game with treats, trying out a lick bowl, bobbing for apples, and other brain engaging activities. #sithappens  #lafayettedogtrainer #trainingwithresults #groupclasses #workshop #positivedogtraining #dogtrainer #doglovers #lafayettela #canineenrichment #dogstagram #mentalstimulationfordogs
Clemmie, the 1 year old Great Pyrenees German Shep Clemmie, the 1 year old Great Pyrenees German Shepherd Mix, is currently enrolled in private training lessons for behavior modification. Clemmie struggles with dog to human resource guarding. Prior to training she was showing high levels of stress and her aggressive behavior was increasing. She would heavily resource guard the family's couch from them and began resource guarding several spaces in the house. We implemented heavy management, muzzle conditioning, calming chews, Adaptil, systematic desensitization, counter-conditioning, and obedience training. She has made tremendous progress and is no longer resource guarding spaces in the house or the couch. We are currently working on trading her for objects and beginning to work on low stress handling techniques for veterinary visits. 

We start every behavior case by ruling out pain or potential medical causes for behavior with the clients veterinarian at the beginning of training. Recently, Clemmie snapped while being pet, which was a sudden change in behavior. Though Clemmie is aggressive, her aggression has not involved biting. We referred her to the veterinarian to rule out pain and discovered she had an ear infection. Pain is an extremely common cause for aggression and changes in behavior.
