Ray the English bull terrier has completed his 3 week residential training stay with his trainer. Ray’s puppy mouthing had got out of hand and he was starting to properly bite and jump at his owners, causing injury to them. This was also spreading to visitors and other people on walks.
Ray would run over to other dogs and people on walks and ignore his owners. We have worked on establishing a good recall cue and other various ways to keep Ray focused on his handler so his owners will have more control on walks.
Ray was also showing several resource guarding behaviours at home however, during his stay we put into place a routine to ensure he was getting enough sleep to prevent him from being overtired which was causing a lot of these issues as he wasn’t getting the sleep he so desperately needed at his age. In addition, teaching Ray different cues and ensuring he was enjoying himself has enabled him to bond with his trainer which in turn has prevented Ray feeling as though he needed to show any guarding behaviours.
We also worked on ‘Drop’ cue so his owners can safely play games with him in a controlled manner. Ray has really enjoyed learning but he’s in a really tricky stage at the moment. Being an adolescent male bull terrier, a lot of management will need to remain in place so he is able to mature into a well rounded adult.
His owners how have the tools and knowledge to safely continue Ray’s training journey!
We have also worked on Ray’s loose lead walking
