Dogs & Babies

Description

Whether you're planning children in your future and have a dog, or have a baby and are planning a dog, or you have both and are feeling completely overwhelmed, we can help.

We will work with you to ensure your home is set up in a way that is safe for both dog and baby, identifying hot spots (areas where risk is high) and safe zones. We will teach you about various types of supervision and how to manage the environment so that everyone is happy, comfortable, and above all, safe.

For behavioural issues such as reactivity, aggression, resource guarding, separation anxiety, fears/phobias, post-traumatic stress disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, etc...please see our Behaviour Modification section.
