Barnie - a Lhasapoo with a bite history, he's suffered with dog reactivity, aggression and resource guarding since he was a puppy.  I spent years trying everything I saw dog trainers doing on TV, Instagram or Youtube. I wasted thousands of £££'s on behaviourists and trainers but nothing worked until I learnt the only way to help him was to focus on our relationship, implementing plenty of structure and years of consistency.  There is no quick fix!

Seven - a Belgian Malinois who was taken to the vets at 7 months old, to be put to sleep by his previous owner. They couldn't cope with him, which isn't surprising considering this breed are high drive and intense - there is a reason you'll usually see them working in the police or military. When he first came to me, his first instinct when he couldn't control his emotions would be to bite me. These days, that urge would never enter his head.

Navy - a Cane Corso cross puppy, tied to a fence and left to fend for herself. She was my second foster dog, but I knew before I even laid eyes on her that she was mine. In the first year of her life she'd had around 10 different homes so understandably we've had some trust issues to work through with people. 

My experience with each of my personal dogs is how I'm able to help owners understand their dogs better... Been there and done that, as the saying goes.
