Types of behaviour issues we address (CLICK HERE)

Aggression Towards  Dogs and Humans
Various underlying factors can cause aggression in dogs, but it is not due to stubbornness or the need for an “alpha” figure. Our strategies prioritize your dog’s well-being, which Chip’s experience ensures. 

Reactivity Towards Moving Objects
Dogs react to moving objects for different reasons, such as prey drive or fear. Chip’s approach involves assessing the underlying causes behind the reaction. 

Resource Guarding
Resolving resource guarding in dogs can be complex and dangerous. Chip’s expertise in canine behaviour helps us develop effective strategies to address this issue without escalating conflicts. 

Separation Distress
We fully understand the difficulties of dealing with separation anxiety in your furry companion. Rest assured, Chip employs only the most empathetic and effective methods to alleviate such anxiety and promote emotional well-being. Our guidance will make your dog more self-assured, confident, and secure. 

Phobias
This includes loud noises, thunder, fireworks, etc. Utilizing our expertise, our approach focuses on minimizing power struggles and nurturing your dog’s sense of security. 

Excessive Barking
We tackle the root causes of excessive barking to establish a calm and harmonious living space for you and your beloved pet instead of engaging in a futile battle against it. 

Over Excitable Behaviour
Chip’s strategic approach addresses over-excitable behaviours without resorting to harmful methods, helping your dog embrace a more relaxed pace. Say goodbye to jumping on people and other hyperactive behaviours.
