We hosted an Ask Me Anything on anxious, fearful, and reactive dogs. You asked some incredible questions, and this is the result.
We talked about:
- How to find the starting place for working with anxious dogs
- Helping dogs who are afraid of elevators
- Fear of strangers
- Helping reactive dogs in tricky environments like apartment buildings and cities
- Reactivity to other dogs
- Fear of loud noises
- How the unfortunate side effects of shock collars can persist after training is over
- How to persuade people not to use aversives
- and more!
