Dog Behaviour Problems

Is your dog suffering from separation issues? Does your dog have a history of biting? Is your dog anxious and nervous? Are walks becoming a burden due to their unruly reactive behaviour?

Changing our dog’s behaviour with Individualised training and management

Dog behaviour issues can be frustrating, tiring and even dangerous, depending on the level of the dog’s reactions.

Training and Management

Finding the causes and starting to change your dog’s behaviour.  

If a dog is displaying unwanted ‘bad’ behaviours or aggression, it can be due to multiple factors, and rarely is it just one single object or trigger. Many of these cases are born from an underlying fear response to something within the dog’s environment.

what they say about us

Changing Behaviour takes time and effort.

When working with behaviour issues, it is essential to remember that there is no such thing as a magic wand. Some dogs’ responses adjust very quickly, while others do not. We will take a holistic approach using a training and management process designed around you and your dog.

Consistency and patience are vital elements of any behaviour modification program. We will be there to help you along the way.

Learn to understand your dog and support them to change their behaviour choices?

Positive 4 Paws stood out with great reviews and comments and we must say we were not disappointed at all.

“After making contact with Iain, an initial (free-of-charge) consultation was arranged to have a chat about the problems we were having. He suggested a plan of action, which we were very happy with, and we booked our first group of sessions. Further down the line, our boys have now graduated from school, and their ‘home training’ is still going well with us.”
