Lend a Helping Hound

Support group for dogs who have difficulties around other dogs. Neither you nor your dog will ever be asked to go up close to or have your dog off leash around another dog who is nervous and/or reactive. These sessions are there to build confidence and learning for reactive dogs around a whole host of other dogs. You and your dog will learn how to ignore and be confident and comfortable around other dogs who are not so confident. When working with these dogs, we will never push them into a situation where they are barking or lunging, we always keep them under threshold so that they can properly learn and feel better. These sessions are free for our Helping Hounds. Sessions are typically on Sundays in our training field in Prosperous. Each week I will send out an email with available slots to lend a Helping Hound (and yourself), if you are free to help out just reply to the email, if not just ignore it and hopefully we will see you next time. Being able to offer this support to dogs who are having difficulties makes a huge difference to their recovery and ability to rejoin normal everyday life with their families.
