Loved this video and so glad Tom was able to help you Deanna & Stormi! I am also a trainer (my methods are just like Tom's so I love to watch his videos) and I am also an energy worker and I just thought I would mention to you that you can also do energy healing sessions to help dogs out with PTSD and all sorts of issues. Look into Bodytalk and Reiki to help Stormi with any remaining deep subconscious issues that the training may not have helped. Dogs LOVE energy work. Both modalities can be done in person or distance. Congrats on the successful sessions! :)

I’m a service dog handler. I’m partners with my black lab girl Darcy. I understand the bond. It’s deeper than any pet. I know what it’s like to see your partner scared and shutting down. I’m not a professional trainer. But I somehow knew I had to keep exposing her to her fears. And celebrate her wins when she faced her fears! She highly values mom being happy and excited and praising her. We always have a quick play session after successfully work thru hard things! I’ve mostly learned from other trainers and service dog owners training their SD’s to apply my learning with her. I’m a owner trainer. We’ve learned from our mistakes and are always improving and maintaining our skills. The one place that seriously forged our bond and advanced her training by a mile: The heart of Philly PA for an extended weekend. Walking almost a mile 2 times a day thru heavy noisy traffic, people crowds, and smells. Going thru hotel situations: elevators with a big drop feel & packed with people, safely training escalators & calmly getting on and off, ignoring pet dogs barking and rushing at her, and anyone trying to distract her. City’s definitely expose and give lots of desensitisation opportunities. Thank you from another SD team for what you do ! They are literally a part of us! We depend on them, and they depend on us. Both dog and handler will got to the moon and back for each other! ❤️

[@SnipeyDaSniper]

One of the things that always hurts my heart is that dogs don't understand the why behind bad things that happen. Like Tom mentioned in this situation, Stormi did not - can not - understand what a car accident is, why it happened, or that it won't happen again. She just knows that something really scary, really painful happened. This is where it is so important for us to be there for our pups, to advocate for them, and to show them that they can be confident again. I hope Stormi and her owner can get back to that place of confidence again. From the looks of it, they definitely can!

Thanks for this video. My guide dog suffered a bad dog attack while guiding me. We have worked so hard to help him recover but sadly he hasn’t been able to relax and guide within a 2 block radius of where the attack happened. It happened a block from our home. I had to make a very hard decision and am retiring him. He has been an amazing guide dog. He has been by my side for 4 years but it’s time for him to enjoy just being a dog. I will be without my guide dog, my independence and safety. The wait for a new guide can be as long as 3 years. My guide will enjoy his nose work classes, something he could not do as a guide dog. He has excelled at trick training as well. I know he will thrive with his new family and love the fun training and non guiding life

This is such a hard situation and decision to make. I admire you for the strength to retire and to see other talents he has and let them grow. I am proud of you and so sorry this happened. This is why I agreed to do the video; as hard as it was , I prayed it would help others. . I didn’t want people in our community to be alone. To know real life things happen. People rarely talk about it for a variety of reasons. How emotional it is , fear of judgement , and honestly the journey of regression of our dogs due to circumstances out of our control breaks our soul. We need them!

I have a service dog, who is a weenie about everything, because he’s only a year and a half. As I’ve been desensitizing him to things, I can kinda understand her frustration of wanting her dog to be ok with everything. It’s takes a lot of patience and work. It takes everything out of you, but worth it.

[@alexandriarobles3537]

As a service dog handler, I can't imagine how hard things have been, not only for the dog but for the handler. Your service dog is your everything and often makes all the difference in the world when it comes to a handler's independence and wellbeing. If you're doing things right your dog should want to work. Traumatic experiences can happen so suddenly and take that joy and confidence right out of a dog. It's absolutely heartbreaking. I know many handlers who had to wash (retire) amazing service dogs who couldn't bounce back after a traumatic experience. You can see how hard Stormi's regression has affected her handler but I love that she hasn't given up all hope and is doing everything possible to help Stormi work through it. Thank you so much Tom for taking the time to help a fellow team out! Wishing for the best results!

As a psychological method, what you're using is called Exposure Therapy. The purpose is for the incrementally increasing exposure to the trigger factor to increase the threshold for what it is that sets off the dog's fight or flight till you reach a point wherein the normal experiences in a dog's day there are few to no triggers at all. Also, it resets the amygdala so that it doesn't respond to triggers as often.

That was great respect you (Tom) showed for the dog and the owner. Generally, no one should engage a service dog, but there are times like this when it is necessary in order to bring this beautiful dog back to her full capacity as a service dog. I've handled service dogs before and some have to be "on" 24/7 where others can have breaks. Stormi needs to be on pretty much 24/7 unless there's someone else around who can respond if her owner has an emergency. I hope Stormi recovers fully. She certainly is on the right track now.

He was born to do this and I think he has saved a lot of dogs lives and stopped a lot of dog owners from finding new homes for there dogs where it would all start again exactly the same way until finally someone has the dog and gives up so he goes to kennels and a possible horrible outcome.

[@beam3819]

You "saving" a service dog is amazing. Cuz they "save" their humans who really need that Helper, so I am just thankful to No Bad Dogs for doing this for both human in need and dog in need. Norway sending love!

[@RagDoll15]

Being in a car accident with my girls is one of my biggest fears. I'm glad this pair found you to help them. Thanks for the great video as always.

[@christiancordero395]

No bad dogs, when this phrase enters my ears i always excited to watch dog training, im from Philippines and i do dog training on my own belgian malinois. You make dogs well trained also the owners, you work so hard and big thanks to your show. There are many dog training videos in youtube but your channel is only i want to watch and wait nicely every week.

First lol I’m so exited I have a service dog to!Sadly Me and My service dog got in a Crash And I trained my dog back!:>

[@tomdavisofficial]

Yay!

[@jeanetteiacovone1958]

Great!!!!

[@akaiakira]

It's pretty interesting seeing you working with a service dog,specially in this scenario where ahe won't take food. Something that with purely positive would take weeks,can be worked through to give the owner leverage while the desensitization process is going on.

[@DeannaSteinle]

Yes, I was so stuck!

[@donnalama6404]

I am blown away by the entire video, Iam so grateful that you (TOM) exist to help dogs and solve the problems. This video was emotional for me. I can’t imaging what poor Stormy went through in that accident, but Iam glad she is gaining confidence and I hope she improves and gets back to where she was. I felt bad for her handler because the bond is too strong and to watch your dog shut down and feel helpless is heart breaking and life crushing. She is lucky to be in a place with amazing people like Tom to help them out. Thank you for sharing this and the wolves 🐺 too❤️❤️❤️🧿

[@DeannaSteinle]

We work hard everyday. We would never had made the progress we did, without his help. I was stuck; I had no idea how to help here. You can have dogs all you life, and nothing prepares you for this.

[@donnalama6404]

@@DeannaSteinle I know how helpless one can feel when you feel stuck. Iam so glad you Stormy found Tom. I found Tom randomly on KZbin exactly a year ago and through KZbin he has helped me with my reactive dog Sky. Iam so grateful to these videos. ANDDDD Yess!!! that’s the way girls, the hard work pays off. Keep it up 👍🏼 And I know you must be using every ounce of your energy in helping her get comfy with all the loud noises and places. Always gonna be rooting for the two of you. Hoping to see a progress video in the future. Big hugs and love from me and my dog Sky❤️

great example of how the prong can change a lot the situation

Tom makes so much sense. These videos have helped me immeasurably.

Thanks so much for the feedbck!

I needed this video because my bloodhound mix is the same way. She knocked over an outside vase and cut her paw when she was 8 to 10 weeks old. She had to have stitches. Soon after that, she was (and still is) scared to be in the backyard by herself. She would start whining and drooling wanting to come inside but as soon as you go outside with her she is fine wanting to play. I told the vet about it they she'll grow out of it. She is 3 now and she has not grown out of it. She is just slightly better cuz she has to deal with it. But she now is scared of loud sounds like the trash truck which she can't even see. She is also scared of big objects like a dumpster or a cardboard box and things with wheels (outside the house, for some reason she is not scared of my dad's wheelchair and electric chair). She likes people and will let them pet her (sometimes) because she is unpredictable and the wrong move from someone will scare her or if there are too many people around her. I knew my dog had PTSD but I didn't know what or how to help her. Thank you Tom Davis for having videos about dogs who are fearful in lack confidence. Now I can help her to over come some of the things she is afraid of.

[@roseeggleston7535]

Poor baby. Must be heartbreaking for Mom. Glad everyone is ok and happy she’s getting help. 💕

[@DeannaSteinle]

Thank you Rose, I was an emotional wreck. I'm so glad Tom could put up with me!! haha! He was the right fit, not only for Stormi, but how to handle me. I think anyone else would have broken my spirit. He knew I was in a fragile emotional state. He kept reassuring me and explaining in a way, I didn't get overwhelmed.

[@celticcharm5]

What a fantastic video. It is heartbreaking to see such fear in any dog let alone a service dog, and to see the change in her just slowly working on what startles her was wonderful. I know when I work with my dog on simple things we are struggling with, and we nail it I’m over the moon. So I can see the joy and relief this owner had when her dog was building her confidence.

[@DeannaSteinle]

Thank you Megan! When we were working and she did her first tag wag, I got in the car and cried. I was so happy to see her turn the corner like that.

[@beigepage437]

Tom, your videos have given me the skills to be a confident handler for my dog. I'm much less anxious, so she is too. Thank you for making great content!

[@melodieramsay655]

I 100% agree with what you are doing Tom. A few years ago, I used to walk a puppy who came from the islands and he was afraid of anything different - an orange pylon, a motorcycle in the driveway, a garbage can, etc. - so I would do what you are doing - desensitize him to the object by having him sit beside it or walk back-and-forth past it till he realized it was not scary or dangerous.

[@jeanetteiacovone1958]

I love how you went to the store shopping to help this dog.. love how you love them Tom! You are amazing!

[@tomdavisofficial]

haha , thanks so much!

[@DeannaSteinle]

Hahah! Do not worry, we paid for the Turkey!!! lol

[@Satomori323]

This video would be very hopeful for SD handlers who are facing similar issues. And It is nice to see how the process of rebuilding a dog's confidence can be done.

[@canineconnoisseur]

Alot of emotion in this one.. great work and fire content as always Tom! 🔥💯

[@tomdavisofficial]

Thank you so much!

Love a good XL floof 🐾

Thank you! 💛💛

[@lenagoodwin8223]

Love seeing the chemistry between this dog and their handler. Glad you were able to help them. Too many would enable the dog to continue being fearful af everything. You helped them start to push through that fear head on. And of course you are always so well spoken, respectful, and understanding of the owner's/dog's situation!

[@DeannaSteinle]

Thank you Lena!!

[@hannahbruch9553]

Loved seeing you work with a SD. As a fellow SD handler, it helps me to see other teams work through issues.
