A VERY AGGRESSIVE GERMAN SHEPHERD When I drove into the yard behind the owner of this GSD., her dog circled my car barking & growling aggressively while trying to bite the tyres. Through the window, I told her that she had to put the dog on a lead & muzzle it before I would open my car door. Once this was done, I got out but the dog eyed me suspiciously as we went into their kitchen. She made him sit beside her but he never took his eyes off me & would make a lunge with a bark & growl whenever I moved. I had already done a test at home for what oils this dog needed to support him. He was a very nervous dog, who had begun to intimidate people who arrived in to the yard because it made him feel superior. He was now a big liability. His owner needed some sort of guard dog as she had casual people coming & going due to the nature of her business. However, her GSD was not allowing anyone in to the yard. During our conversation, it transpired that this dog had been given no boundaries whatsoever & was doing just as he pleased. He wasn't a happy dog but he had taken the law in to his own hands & had accordingly become extremely aggressive. I set out a regime for his owner beginning with his diet, his routine & what exactly she could & should expect from her dog. And she needed to change how she worked with him. He loved the oils & couldn't get enough of them. The oils that he'd chosen were to help him with his nervous aggression. (You can see her email on the previous page bears testimony to the dramatic change in his behaviour in only two days!) It never ceases to amaze me how quickly the oils can work on a dog's emotional, psychological or physical behaviour when coupled with training techniques as well. (Due to the nature of the owner's business & constant visitors to her yard, her name cannot be divulged.) |
