Rescue Dog and Foster Dog Training

Overview
No matter the severity of the dogs experiences, Pawsome Puppies can help to show both the dog and the dog owner, the way to achieve living in harmony and having a full and complete life. Rescue or Pound dogs often come with a different set of challenges as they have convinced themselves that their life is a state of bad situation. This mindset makes a loving environment daunting and stressful for the dog and can get quite distressing for the owners. As Dogs can be pound dogs and learn behaviours from this experience at any age from puppy to senior, these programs are tailored to suit your dogs needs, regardless of age.

Dog Behavioural Training

Pawsome Puppies will come to your home and do an assessment of your dog and how it reacts in its natural environment. We will tailor a management plan for your adult or senior dog to correct any behavioural issues. Some of the issues that can be addressed in this session are; obedience training, barking, walking difficulties, dominant behaviour, jumping, separation anxiety, pulling on lead, toilet training, nervousness, digging, respecting boundaries, aggression towards other dogs or humans, reactive behaviours and rescue or foster dogs not settling in. This appointment is constructed to educate the dog owner as to why their dog is acting/reacting the way they do and what can be done to correct it. We will customise a training plan that the owner can follow to achieve the desired results. This appointment is recommended for adult, senior and rescue dogs and runs for approximately 3 hours.
