Dog Aggression

 Are you struggling with your dog's aggressive behaviour?

As an experienced dog behaviourist regularly dealing with cases of dog aggression, I am able to help you and your dog return to balanced behaviour. I am committed to helping people understand their dogs more clearly, to regain control where needed, and improving the human-dog bond. I focus on your handling skills, and creating calm behaviour in your dog. A dog that is calm is able to listen to you and follow your lead when asked to do so.

As well as extensive, practical hands on experience, I have an MA in dog behaviour from Middlesex University (Professional Practice in Canine Behaviour and Psychology). 

I specialise in creating a positive leadership based bond with your dog founded on good common sense, and years of experience dealing with dog behaviour problems just like the ones you're currently experiencing. Most commonly I am asked to help resolve dog to dog aggression, second to that comes dog aggression to people, either towards the owners, visitors to the home, or people outside. I also find that once a dog is aggressive to people, aggression to other dogs is also common place. Apart from aggression to dogs and people you may be experiencing aggressive behaviour towards moving objects such as traffic or other animals.

Aggressive behaviour can then arise around other areas such as territory, guarding of objects and food, or aggressive behaviour when attempting to groom the dog and so on. Aggressive behaviour in dogs can be displayed in more ways than I could describe here; in any event I am experienced in finding a calm solution.

                                              

There are no quick fixes to resolving aggressive dog behaviour, but I am often impressed with how quickly a dog is able to change, and very often this change is clearly evident during my first visit with you. I do not use aggressive or harsh training methods. No check chains, electric collars or prong collars. No shouting at the dog (or you!). We shall work on a one to one basis together in your home and outdoor environments to find a solution suited for you and your dog that endures and improves with time. Every dog and owner requires a custom approach for best results; this is where I will stay flexible and able to adapt to every dog and owner's needs to ensure a successful outcome.

Other dog behaviour problems:

The majority of my work is resolving aggressive behaviour in dogs, but I can also help you with any other dog behaviour problems you may be experiencing. I can offer puppy visits, help for pulling, jumping up, separation anxiety, soiling in the home, non recall, excessive barking, nervous behaviour... the list is endless!

Dog Expert Witness



As a qualified dog behaviourist I can assess dogs for temperament and provide professional reports with film based evidence in order to defend owners in Magistrate and High court cases.

Dog behaviour assessments are made in the home and on public walk environments or in secure compounds by arrangement. I have an MA in dog behaviour from Middlesex University (Professional Practice in Canine Behaviour and Psychology) and have acted as an expert witness following instructions by clients, legal practices, welfare organisations, the police and courts. I always seek to work in close cooperation with Police Dog Legislation Officers (DLO's) and legal professions bringing a practical, yet professional spirit to my work.
