Does your dog need help with their behaviour?
If you're struggling to understand or cope with your dog's behaviours it can be challenging to see a way forward. It is stressful to live with the behaviour but even more stressful knowing your dog is unhappy and you don't know how to help
At Education4Paws we aim to make an assessment of your dog's emotions to identify the underlying cause of the undesirable behaviour. Based on this assessment we will then offer a tailor made plan to help you manage the problem and work to resolve the issue

-
Aggression towards people or other animals

So how does it work?
Get in touch
Complete the forms
Get in touch with me and let me know what you need help with
Once you have selected your behaviour package you can forward a vet referral form to your vet for completion. You will then be forwarded another form to complete as a family.
Book a date
Once I receive all forms, we can then book in a date for your initial consult!
Why does my vet need to be involved?
All behaviour consultations operate off veterinary referral. This means we require your vet to complete a form and attach your dog's medical history before we can see your dog.
This is to rule out any medical conditions that may be affecting your dog's behaviour as well as opening up the communication between us and your vet should further conversations need to be had.
There is evidence to suggest up to 80% of behaviour cases have an underlying medical component that could be contributing towards their behaviour so it is vital we address this within our initial assessment.
FAQs
'Alice was amazing at helping me with my reactive dog. I had felt embarrassed to take him out in public due to his barking and lunging and she was so nonjudgmental and supportive. She helped me understand why he was barking and gave me the skills to help him (and me!) feel more confident out in public.'
