Course description:

Going for a casual stroll can be taken for granted by dog-owners who don’t experience the embarrassment of having their dog aggressively lunge at other dogs or people – a behavior referred to as “leash-lunging.”

Join the WHS Behavior and Learning Center as we address the topic head-on and give owners of leash-lunging dogs the knowledge, tools and techniques that are necessary to stage their own intervention!

In this in-depth seminar, that will include a multi-media presentation, lecture and Q & A session, we will discuss:

• A comprehensive Behavior modification plan
• Understanding what makes dogs leash-aggressive
• Management techniques
• Dogs that lunge at dogs and people
• And more!

Please note: This seminar is for humans only.
