We offer a Dog Psychology service to help with any issues or misunderstandings your dog has picked up along the way. This service will start by listening to what you believe your dogs issues or problems may be, then we will asses your dog, which would generally be a temperament test. Because a lot of people can misunderstand some fear in their dogs for Aggression. We would then give you our diagnosis and talk you through a process we believe would help you to correct the reason your dog has the issues or problems in the first place, before we actually address the issue or problem you called us in for. We would also help to give you a basic understanding of dog psychology, because knowing how your dog thinks is half way to beating any issue or problem and can help stop future issues.
Although when we do address one issue, it is common practice that other issues arise, but with our 24 hour help and your new found understanding, we will solve that issue and any others that may arise. Contact us via the website or direct on 01206 511868 or 07989473131, email us at Connorslegacy@live.co.uk.

Sadly through common misunderstandings and miscommunication, a lot of domestic dogs are becoming stressed within their environment. From the poor dog used as a status dog or guard dog, to the most loved and spoiled dog on the planet. Both ends of the spectrum has the same results for a dog who's owner has not taken the time to understand the psychology of the dog and is working from their own instinct.
If your dog does any of the following, your dog is under stress and most issues are considered common practices.
Any kind of Barking is stress, whether it's in the garden or at people or dogs just passing by and at the door, this is all stress related. Chewing, Running Away, Pulling on the lead, Food, Toy or any Aggression, Fear of anything, Biting, Growling, Fighting with other dogs or people. Not wishing to walk on the lead, Needing picked up all the time. Traffic noise. Any phobia your dog has we can help. Any age.
These are just a few to list some common problems that have arisen usually through misunderstandings. If your dog has any of these issues or problems, then please don't dispare. Contact us for a free, no obligation one hour consultation. We can and want to help with any issue.
Human Psychology is sadly not always the way a dog would think.
For example:
If a dog is scared of fireworks. The human reaction is to give the dog a cuddle, to try to comfort the poor dog. When in a canine world, your dog may misunderstand and believe you to be showing a mutual fear. This would just make the dog feel worse and they would lose respect for you as a protector. Sadly this is one of the reasons dog bites to children are statistically high, because the child is holding the dog still, when all it wants to do is run and hide. Please if your dog is scared of anything, do not allow anyone to stop your dog from going where it wants to go and contact a professional, like ourselves to come and asses your dog. We would then work WITH YOU to correct any issues or problems your dog may have.
Also please take the time to understand how your dog thinks, it really is quite understandable and straight forward. They feel the same as us quite a lot, only sometime at different times than we would and for different reasons.
This is just one small understanding that could be used to stop dogs biting children or their owners.
