Workshop Synopsis:
Join us for an in-depth half-day workshop dedicated to understanding and supporting dogs that exhibit interhousehold aggression and resource guarding. This session is tailored to provide you with practical knowledge and strategies to address these challenging behaviours while promoting your dog's well-being and autonomy.
Exploring the Link Between Behaviors:
Interhousehold Aggression and Resource Guarding: We will delve into the connection between interhousehold aggression and resource guarding, understanding how these behaviours often intertwine. A significant proportion of interhousehold aggression can stem from resource guarding, making it crucial to address both aspects simultaneously.
Innovative Approaches:
Autonomy and Stress Reduction: Learn about innovative approaches that prioritize your dog's autonomy and reduce stress. We'll discuss techniques that move away from traditional "swapping out" methods, which can sometimes exacerbate anxiety and tension.
Positive Reinforcement and Choice-Based Methods: Discover how to empower your dog through positive reinforcement and choice-based methods, allowing them to feel more in control and less threatened in their environment.
Effective Management Strategies:
Management Techniques: Understand the essential role of management in preventing and mitigating aggression and guarding behaviours. However, we'll also explore how certain management practices can unintentionally make situations worse and how to avoid these pitfalls.
Environmental Adjustments: Learn how to create a harmonious environment that minimizes triggers and reduces the likelihood of aggressive or guarding incidents.
Hands-On Learning:
Interactive Discussions and Real-Life Scenarios: Participate in interactive discussions and analyze real-life scenarios to apply your newfound knowledge practically.
Join us for a transformative experience that will empower you to make a positive difference in your dog's behaviour and overall well-being.
