Expanded Description:
A dog leaves puppyhood and enters adolescence at about the age of 5 months, and doesn’t leave it until 2 and a half or 3 years. The most challenging age is usually between 8 and 18 months. Some dogs pass through this phase with little trouble, but most drive their owners crazy. During this phase, it can be hard for owners to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Many small behavior problems can become large ones. Dogs learn to repeat behaviors that are successful - including bullying, fearful snapping, escaping and mouthing, to name a few - until they become perfect. In this session learn to recognize potential problem behaviors and problem dogs. Also discussed is prevention, intervention and modification methods used for this group. DVD covers may vary.
