We have had hundreds of clients in our time. Each one
cared for with kindness and gentleness. Our success rate is near perfect. Why?
First we empathize. We put ourselves in the mind of all
of the animals in the household, which every good behaviorist should do.
Secondly, animal behavior problems are generally not limited
to just the non-human animal his/herself.
As in any relationship, there are dynamics, and
it is up to the human to help change it. We are there to help you alter the relationship
positively and peacefully.
A.
Through your dog's cat's or horse's, pig's
etc. senses you are not only mom and dad, you are also a giant. They do
not see you as smaller than them, even horses and cows. Hitting them simply
scares them, and the more afraid they are, the less likely they are to learn.
B. They
smell things much more keenly than human's do, so scents of anger or scents they
associate with fear, upset them.
C. They
see and hear better than humans, above and below human sight and hearing range.
Yelling hurts their ears and scares them, things in the dark we can't see can
frighten them. Environmental and manmade sounds can also frighten
them, or make it difficult for them to learn.
