Annie Day 7 Dog Park Exercise
Like 1 Dislike 0 Published on 25 Aug 2013
Annie at the dog park with an amplified stimulus. We really turned up the heat on Annie today and she passed every milestone we had set for her.
The constant pressure of having dogs in her social space has forced her to find another way to deal with the situation. Once she discovered that a calm relaxed state not only felt better but also got her a treat, the die was cast.
There are no shortcuts to rehabilitate this type of aggression and it by no means can be alleviated in two weeks time, What will happen is that we will establish a foundation for a relationship with an appropriate way of dealing with her trigger stimuli. A workable plan to keep her in this new state will be established and given to the her foster. With this plan in place, time and repetition will create the real miracle.
