The missing piece for so many handlers is developing reliable behaviour in distracting and new environments. “My dog is great at home, but they completely dip out and give me nothing in new places.”  We’ve all been there and it’s disheartening. Engagement isn’t about focus. We can teach focus as a simple exercise. Engagement is an attitude. It’s a dog’s desire to be with its handler, interact with them and a reflection of the value the dog places in them, over all other environmental factors.

Learn key strategies and skills that will transform your relationship with your dog. Develop a better understanding of what your dog truly needs/desires, then create processes and activities that fulfil those needs. In this workshop we will run through the theory and practical demonstrations of how you can build your relationship and shift your dog’s value back to you. Develop a highly engaged dog that has a stronger recall and is far less likely to run off at their first chance.

This workshop has both a theory and practical component, with a strong focus on practical application. The dog spots are there to demo the skills discussed to the wider audience. We will be selecting a range of dogs to best demo the focus skills and the challenges we all come up against. We do this so the workshop is equally valuable to those attending with or without a dog.

Dog Spots:  We have a limit of 6 dog spots (by application only once you have purchased a non-refundable auditor spot). If you are interested in a dog spot please email through your dog’s behavioural history, their current training level and your behavioural goals in an email application to us after you have purchased your ticket.

It is important that we have a range of dogs with varied behavioural responses for the workshop. With this being the case you may not be selected if your dog presents the same behaviour as another dog attending. The purpose of dog spots is to demonstrate our practices and how they work across a range of varied dog types.

REACTIVITY AND LEASH AGGRESSION WORKSHOP  

With Dave McKelson

DATE: 17th of September 2023

TIME: 9 AM – 4PM

COST: $220 (Inc GST) for a working or auditing spot

Workshop Details: Learn highly effective strategies to modify and manage reactivity/leash aggression. Reactivity/leash aggression and human/dog aggression as a whole has become a key focus of ours at Pro Dog.  Learn how to create a meaningful and multi layered relationship with your dog.  Modifying reactivity/aggression isn’t a leash wrangling exercise; it’s a test of your communication systems, your dog’s understanding of foundation obedience, the development of highly effective reward systems, engagement with the handler and modifying emotional responses through the training processes.

Our system is not a quick fix, it is complex approach and requires a great deal of dedication to ensure you see results. As with any difficult training task there is a strong focus on establishing solid foundation work.

Dog Spots:  We have a limit of 6 dog spots (by application only once you have purchased a non-refundable auditor spot). If you are interested in a dog spot please email through your dog’s behavioural history, their current training level and your behavioural goals in an email application to us after you have purchased your ticket.
