Puppy Problems - From Fear to Anxiety to Aggression
With Trish King
New puppy owners are generally quite naive in their knowledge of dog behavior. They cannot read puppy body language, nor plan how to modify behavior if there are problems. Puppies all have their individual temperaments, and some can be quite problematic - fearful, shy, possessive or too bold. In this Webinar, we will discuss how to evaluate puppies' temperaments, and establish exposure and training protocols to help them become social adults.
Learning Objectives:
1) To help dog professionals learn to identify potential problems in puppies
2) To help professionals establish protocols to modify or mold puppy behavior
