Reactive Roundtable Discussion
Living With a Reactive Dog Roundtable Discussion
This online "support group" usually meets the FOURTH SUNDAY of the month at 6pm, usually for about 60-90 minutes, via Zoom. There is no roundtable in December.
- It can be a lonely life, living with a reactive dog. Even attending class can be lonely - only the instructor, no other fellow "reactive people".
But know that you are not alone!
Let's get together and share of our experiences of what it's like to live with a reactive dog. Let's talk about our dogs' issues in a safe environment, with other owners of reactive dogs who know what it's like, and who don't judge us because we "cannot get the dog to behave" or "cannot control the dog".
THIS EVENT IS OPEN TO PAST AND PRESENT STUDENTS OF OUR REACTIVE DOG PROGRAMME AND PRIVATE TRAINING SERVICES.
If you have any questions about this event, or have not received your invitation, email [email protected] with Reactive Roundtable in the subject line.
There is no charge for participating in this event.
My big triumph was on the beach two weeks ago. Arwyn gets to be off leash at the beach (she's been on the long line on forest hikes for months now) and there was a deer eating seaweed... the dogs, of course, blasted off after the deer up the steep bank... I called... AND THEY CAME BACK!!
A miracle.
Well, the miracle of training.

Hello Cowichan Canine,
We thought you might enjoy an update on Sigrid. We went to the Port Alberni Sanction Match. We are so thankful we did Puppy Start Right and are in Foundations 1. The training really pulled together in this environment.
Sigrid experienced crating, grooming, strange people touching and examining, strange dogs, a new place with strange acoustics, angry dogs, scared dogs, new commands, and a show lead.
Her socialization has given her confidence in spades! She handled it all like a champ and she truly enjoyed herself as we were hoping she would. We could not have done this without the foundations training to settle and also to pay attention in a distracting environment. It was helpful for her to be used to coexisting next to other focused dogs without greeting.
Thank you so much for all she is learning.
