Just want to continue to answer people's questions about how B&L Dog Training worked with April's adorable yorkie, Tucker.

Tucker would bark and get so excited when he saw other dogs that April simply avoided them and stop taking Tucker to the Pet Smart and the dog park. Tucker also had an aversion to the vacuum cleaner and would attack it madly whenever April tried to clean her rugs. We were able to help her with all of these problems by teaching her training cues and proper walking techniques to let Tucker know that she was now taking over as pack leader.

Babs and I first walked with April and Tucker to show her how to keep him in a calm submissive state, even when other dogs are around. We went to PetSmart with her, too, but unfortunately, there were no dogs to practice with that day. We then met at a local dog park with her several days later and once we put Tucker in a calm submissive state and he now understood that he is not the pack leader, he had a delightful time with no stress on both sides of the park, with the little dogs and with the big dogs.

We worked back at the apartment to help April claim the vacuum cleaner as hers and soon Tucker would sit and look at it rather than aggressively attack it. We are glad to have been of help. If you want more info., you can contact us at 480-516 3349. We do offer free evaluations with no obligations and would love to work with you and your great little dogs.
