The Two Main Causes of Reactive Dogs

Frustration

In puppyhood, owners like to allow our pups to say hello to anyone and everyone they pass on the street. This is incredibly reinforcing for most friendly and social pups. Then, as they age, we take those greetings away, and your pup is left with unmet expectations, leaving you with a frustrated, reactive dog that desperately wants to say hello. These dogs will be typically highly social and do well with other dogs or people off-leash.

Fear or Insecurity

On the flip side of frustrated dogs are our fearful, insecure dogs. These dogs may have been poorly socialised or had a scary experience with another dog. Typically, this scary experience involves an inability to escape. When on a lead it takes away your dog’s ability to choose “flight”—which most dogs will happily take when given the opportunity. So when an off-lead dog attacks your on-lead dog, this can cause an immediate need to use barking, lunging, and other intimidating body language signals to deter other dogs from doing the same. These dogs are typically shy or on guard when meeting other dogs off-lead, although they may eventually warm up to new dogs.

What Our Customers Say

Adam Oliver

I had my first 1-2-1 with Karen and my dog, Nala. Karen is very experienced and gave us lots to practise and work on. We look forward to our next session!

We have had several group sessions with our new rescue dog, Buster. She is very good at training us to do and say the right thing to help set boundaries and work on his recall. He has come on leaps and bounds. She gives good feedback and gives hints on what to practise at home. It's all about enforcing the message and being consistent, and she helps us realise where we were going wrong. We are hoping that after a few 1-2-1 sessions, we might one day be able to let him off the lead with confidence.

Samantha Jo Dennard

The best advice I've had for my little dog. In just one week, there has been a massive difference in her training with walking and behaviour with the other dogs at home. Before, she would refuse to walk, no matter what I did, but she is now doing a whole walk on the lead. There are still some issues, but with just a consultation and a week of changes, there is a big improvement, with more improving as training goes on. I would highly recommend it.
