looking for a behaviourist
I need some help with Clark. When he first came to live with me he was sweet as could be, then he was attacked on his leash by a dobie it was more noise than anything but since then he is getting more and more aggressive with other dogs especially on his leash. His new thing is lunging at people on his leash. I have tried keeping him focused on me and trying to get him to ignore everything around him. I have had a few other dogs with aggression issues but was able to work with them to get passed it, but I think I need help with him. I really love my little satan dog but this behaviour needs to stop and I am looking for someone in downtown Toronto. If you have any suggestions on someone you may have used or know of someone that has come recommended could you pm me thanks or any suggestions I am open to those as well. I use a harness on Clark and I really do not want to use a muzzle unless absolutely necessary I think it would only make it worse.

Hi, I wish you lived closer to montreal cause I have sometimes the same problem with my boy Lex... on leash only.. and I think it is probably my fault (it stresses me since I know it happened before and never know if he will react to someone passing by us on leash) He NEVER bit anybody nor showed teeth but can seem quite skittish about people. Anyways..anybody behaviourist close to montreal
I hope Jagsdad and his contacts can help you |

The trainer that we used is in Toronto and we thought he was just fantastic.
His name is Jon Fowles and his website is www.thedogwatch.ca We did a 7 week class with him as well as a private consult, he really knows his stuff and is an incredible dog lover. BTW he loves people that rescue dogs.
