Book Description
Stressors come in all forms, be they social, situational or physical. Usually, we are well equipped to handle stressors in our lives, and indeed, there are optimal levels of stress that we need for healthy functioning. However, when our stressors exceed our capacity to handle them, they can have a serious negative impact. In a dog, PTSD often exhibits as reactivity and aggression. This is mostly a means to either scare other dogs away, or make them go away. So here in this book is how I rehab a dog who has had a traumatic experience and is now reacting adversely to the triggers that predict that experience occurring again. It doesn’t matter whether that dog is a Service Dog, a Therapy Dog, or a Pet Dog, this program works and has been in use by me and my clients for 20 years.
