Aggression (dog-to-dog and dog-to-human), separation anxiety, conflict between animals within the home, excessive barking, phobias, digging, destruction of furniture and household items, possessiveness of toys, furniture and other items, inappropriate urination and defecation within the home, issues on walks, and issues during car travel are all common complaints from dog owners. All of these behavioural issues can be effectively addressed through a personalized program.

Puppies need the right start in life if they are to mature into the adult dog you want. Effort spent at this critical time, pays off a hundred-fold later in life. The magical window for naturally accepting new experiences lasts from week 3 to about week 12. As the puppy needs to spend the first 8 weeks with its mother and littermates, that only leaves you with a very small window to expose the puppy to lots of new sounds, places, items and people. There are also lots of activities that need to commence during this early time; toilet training, walking on a leash and managing unwanted puppy behaviours are just a few areas that need to be addressed.

Although working with puppies at a young age is the most ideal way to establish the type of dog you want, it is never too late. Dogs of all ages can learn new behaviours. Having a dog that can follow instructions makes the dog's life safer and more enjoyable and makes the human-dog bond much stronger.
