Trust building for fearful dogs

It can be heartbreaking when your own dog flinches from you, or moves away to avoid you. But this is the reality for most of my students who love and care for extremely fearful, semi-feral, or shut-down dogs, when we start working together.

lf your dog is sometimes, or often, wary of you, don't despair. You can gain their trust, by changing how you interact with them. 

In this video, I demonstrate a very simple trust-building exercise that you can put into practice right away. 

If you try this exercise, shot me an email at [email protected] and tell me how it goes!
