Hi @Alex Lato hope you’re well. I am having increasing trouble with “stranger danger” reactivity with my 6 month old JRX x Chihuahua. He is fine with big dogs off lead and saying hi etc but very dog selective on lead and from the distance. I had two incidents last week where he ended up a screaming mess in the end of the leash. What would be the best place to start? Do you do 1:1 online consults? Thank you

Funny enough! We were chatting umbrellas here @Lynne Willmott and now instagram is bombarding me with ads of custom made umbrellas… shall I do Reactive Dog Umbrella with K4D Logo on it? I think I want one eg. Yellow or Black umbrella with writing: Recall Your Dog! The best part is nobody will see it unless blocking the other dog lol What do you think?

Hey guys! let's chat! Next live Q&A will be for Premium and Vip Members only and Top 5 Leaderboard for the last 30 days. I will answer your questions, we can do your videos breakdowns etc. Is there any morning/early afternoon that would suit you? let me know please

Maggi had some training time with her friend Bailey today, we practiced walking on lead up to Bailey, and Bailey running towards Maggi, with me stopping Bailey touching Maggi, confidence and trust building active 🤣🥰

Two off-lead dogs charged at me and my dog. One of them...well didn't have friendly intentions. Everything ended fine, but watching the footage back, there are a few things I could have done better — and a few things I’ll do differently when it happens again. In this video I break down: • Why I put my dog in the middle position • What I did to stop the dogs getting to him • What I should have done earlier • Why I should have been more assertive with both the dogs and the owner • And most importantly, why my dog trusted me to deal with the situation This is exactly what I teach through my 3-step framework for dealing with off-lead dogs: 1. Communication Your dog needs to understand where to go and what you want them to do when something goes wrong. 2. Confidence & Trust - this one is the most IMPORTANT I want my dog to believe that the space next to me is the safest place in the world so they don't feel like they need to react. Not because other dogs suddenly become safe — but because he trusts that I will handle the situation. 3. Practical Strategies Positioning, body blocking, barriers, backpacks, umbrellas, dealing with owners and knowing what to do when another dog keeps approaching. But the biggest lesson is this: Don’t wait for a real emergency to practise. If the only time you practise advocating for your dog is when an uncontrolled dog is already running towards you, of course you’re going to feel stressed. Practise before you need it. Get the reps. Then when the real situation happens, you already know what to do. I break the full system down step-by-step inside my highly requested webinar.
