Let's calm things down

I have been training dogs for the last 12 years, over the years I have worked on this training programme to help people with anxious overreactive dogs. It started with my own dog and how I had to adapt my training with her to allow me and her to enjoy our walks again. I have worked with many clients both in classes and 1:1 training and this has allowed me to adjust the training along my learning journey to this point. My aim was to make this book easy to follow, using simple language and a hope that the reader feels they can progress with their dog at a pace that suits them, for them to not feel alone in the fact that they are struggling with their walks and to know its ok to strip things back and start again. Working in rescue now, I see too many dogs coming in because their owners feel lost in what to do to help them and some people just can't afford a trainer to help them, as much as no book can replace personal help I do hope this book can at least fill the gap for more people who need help, in turn, giving these dogs a chance to stay with their families.
