Dog Name: Lukas
Dog Age: 2
Dog Breed: mixed
Behaviour issues:
Dog aggression, no trust worthy recall, jumping up and wanting a better understanding of their rescue dog Lukas were the reasons for this call.
Outcome Descriptions:
A couple dedicated to learning more about their new charge and how to become better communicators to him, Peter and Malin have adapted a new way of thinking where dogs are concerned.
Lukas no longer pulls on the lead for them and they don't have to walk him with a gentle leader to get him not to pull! His recall is ever improving as is his dog aggression. They are still finding it harder to control off leash but they are more able to control him on leash because they have learned what to watch out for. Teaching Lukas became easier once they learned that REACTION IS NOT AS AFFECTIVE AS DIRECTION when training a dog.

Client Comment / Review:
"We've had a very positive experience with Bark Busters training methods and the overall service, support and commitment from our trainer/therapist. Our dog, Lukas, has shown massive improvements since the first training session and is now on the road to becoming a very well mannered dog. We still need to keep at it and train every day since we realize that this is not a magic overnight fix. The insight into dog behavior has been extremely helpful into understanding why he acts a certain way and how we need to act as owners to prevent it. I had no idea that we were sending a lot of confusing signals to him about leadership and rank. I would recommend anyone who has problems with their dogs behavior to contact Bark Busters."
