I cannot treat any animal with a behavioural, medical or other condition or issue that has not been seen by a vet.
I will also not work with dogs with behavioural problems unless they are undergoing behavioural rehabilitation or training at the same time.
I offer therapy, not behaviour modification. If your dog displays behavioural problems, then a veterinarian or behaviourist should be your first port of call. This is because in a domestic environment your dog is living in your pack and his behaviour is directly influenced by the behaviour of the humans within that pack and, more importantly for him, his position within it.
However, if you know that there are deeper issues that are worsening current behaviour (such as those resulting from past trauma, abandonment, neglect or abuse), then I will try to help.
I welcome any opportunity to work with and compliment the work of vets, behaviour specialists and other professionals at any time during the treatment of your animal.
