A short course designed to provide a better understanding of who your Romanian dog is, why they are different to British dogs and what this may mean for you as pet parents. One of the most common things that can cause problems for new and even existing adopters, is not realising how and why your Romanian family member is different and the kinds of things you might expect in terms of behaviour.
When experiencing problems with Romanian dogs, this information can be invaluable in knowing that you may need to approach things in a slightly different way to take into account a Romanian Dog's Point of View.
In this recorded webinar plus additional supporting units you can gain a deeper understanding of what your fearful dog NEEDS and understand how to support them and help them feel safe.
Discover tools to help them overcome their fears without pressure and relieve stress & worry for you, about whether you are doing the right things for your fearful dog.
Sarah Fishers ACE Free Work is a cornerstone activity that can be hugely beneficial for fearful, socially shy, and overreactive dogs. Free work can also be something that can help noise sensitive dogs, and dogs who tend to bark excessively at every tiny sound.
Once ACE Free Work is established as an activity, it can be used in a variety of ways to help fearful, nervous and anxious dogs grow in confidence and resilience. Not only can it help nervous dogs to move forward with the struggles they have, but it can also have a hugely positive impact on how they feel in general, helping to reduce daily baseline stress levels.
Understanding the correlation between pain and behaviour is an incredibly important part of living with dogs, because obviously they can't tell us when they're uncomfortable because of joint pain, or their ears feel painful, or their tummy feels sore.
But actually, often they are telling us; In how they behave and in how they move (or don't as the case may be) as well as through many subtle signs that may seem insignificant to us if we don't know what to watch out for.
Certain aspects of their physical appearance can also give us clues, and an introduction to all of this is what we cover in this workshop.
Many adopters of Romanian and overseas rescue dogs struggle with this behaviour of 'planting' on walks and point blank refusing to move in any direction.
During this workshop I will aim to provide you with a
deep dive into the 'Rommie Plant' behaviour.
