COMBINED BEHAVIOUR & TTOUCH SESSION

COMBINED BEHABIOUR & TTOUCH SESSION

Combined Behaviour & TTouch Session - Euro 65 - approximately two hours in duration
Portimão and surrounds - Other areas of the Algarve, a travel fee is charged.

When we, as humans are stressed or anxious, it is really hard to learn something new, even though we may have the inclination to do so. With dogs, it is even more difficult, as they do not have the desire to change a behaviour.

By bringing in a modality such as Tellington TTouch, we are able to reduce the dog's stress and anxiety very quickly, thereby making it much easier for the dog to learn an alternative behaviour that the one it is already exhibiting.

The Combined Behaviour and TTouch session will be in the region of two hours (perhaps more), so do leave yourself enough time.

Within 48 hours I send you comprehensive notes on both aspects. There is a lot to cover, and this gives you a reference to fall back on in the event that you may forget something.

I am further available to you for the next 2 weeks by email or What's App, in the event you have any questions or difficulties.

Behaviour Modification

Behaviour never occurs in a vacuum – there’s always a reason/s that may not be obvious to the owner. Remember, from the animal’s point of view, what it’s doing is totally normal, but if we do not understand the root cause/s of the behaviour, the chances of changing it/them are very slim. Additionally, we have to communicate to the dog what we do want, by bringing in a totally alternative way of acting. This is achieved by the owner understanding the way in which dogs communicate using body language, and using only positive reinforcement.

Before we start, you are sent a c0mprehensive questionnaire to complete and return. This saves me from taking ages asking you questions at our consult, plus gives me a good idea of any factors that may have contributed to the unacceptable behaviour, as well as high lighting possible future behaviour concerns. After analysing the questionnaire, I may contact you to ask some questions or clarify some point. We then set up our sessions.
During our session, I will bring in all the modifications necessary to change the behaviour, as well as show you exactly how to do them yourself. I explain why we are doing certain things, as well as give you tools to communicate to your dog exactly what you do, and do not want.

Tellington TTouch

TTouch is the most amazing modality I have ever encountered, and after attending just one demo, I knew this was something that I had to qualify in so that I could have as part of my canine 'tool box' - the changes I have seen in behaviour concerns and health issues, needs to be seen to be believed.

The components are: Body work called Tellington TTouches. The circular TTouches can reduce fear and pain, enhance cellular function and communication and support the healing potential of the body. Ground exercises called The Playground for Higher Learning.

Some of the aspects that TTouch can assist with are:

Overcoming common fear concerns
Overcoming fear of other people, animals and fear of being touched
Behaviour Concerns
Fear of Nail Clipping
Physical Health issues, especially arthritis and hip concerns
Recovery from illness & operations
Building the bond between dog and owner, and dogs absolutely love it
Lowering stress and anxiety

to name just a few.

In our session we will decide what needs to be dealt with, and in addition to working on your dog myself, I will teach you the basic TTouches that you will need, so that you can continue to help your dog yourself.
