What is a Feisty Fido? You may know of someone or maybe yourself owns a dog that has attacked another dog. If your dog has caused damage to another dog either when greeting, running out the door, or through a fence. This class can help you understand how to help your dog. This is not an obedie
nce class rather a Behavioral Program where you learn to set your dog up for success through management, Desensitization as well as Counter Conditioning his reaction.
In a Feisty Fido Class, you will learn how your reaction effects your dog and what you can do to change his behavior in a positive way. Learning how to create situations so your dog can think rather than react will be demonstrated and practiced. Helping your dog learn self control when faced with certain stimulus, getting him to focus on you and desensitizing him are all key elements discussed in this class.
A common training mistake made is to practice with your dog in areas of low distractions, then expect your dog to perform perfectly in your own neighborhood where his reactivity is most high. Skipping through the practice exercises and going straight to difficult situations will only set your dog up for failure.
Safety is always a concern with a Feisty Fido and discussed prior to working with our dogs. I hope this article has helped you better understand what a feisty fido class is and that there is a positive training program to help!
