Transforming Reactive Behaviours into Harmony, One Paw at a Time

Rovers Return Dog Resource Guarding Training

Is Your Dog Showing Unwanted Reactions Around Food, Toys, or Space? Let's Help Them Feel Secure!

Located right here in Lutterworth, Leicestershire, we're passionate about helping local dog owners overcome behavioural challenges with positive, effective methods.

Resource guarding – growling, snapping, or becoming tense when someone approaches their food, toys, bed, or even you – can be stressful and worrying about any dog owner.

You're not alone! Many dogs exhibit this behaviour, driven by a natural instinct to protect valuable resources.

But it doesn't have to be this way.

At Rovers Return Dog Training & Behaviour, we understand the complexities of resource guarding and believe in a positive, effective approach to help your dog feel safe and secure without the need to guard.

Don't let resource guarding control your life. Let's work together to build a happier, more secure future for you and your beloved dog.

Introducing Our Compassionate Resource Guarding Program

Our specialized 1-2-1 program, conducted in the comfort of your own home here in Leicestershire and Lutterworth is designed to address your dog's resource guarding behaviour using gentle, science-backed positive reinforcement methods.

We focus on:

Understanding the "Why": We'll delve into the root causes of your dog's guarding behaviour, considering their individual history and triggers.

Building Trust and Security: Our positive reinforcement techniques help your dog learn that people approaching their resources actually predict good things, fostering a sense of safety and trust.

Changing Negative Associations: We'll carefully and gradually change your dog's negative associations with approach into positive ones.

Empowering You with Skills: You'll gain the knowledge and practical skills to confidently manage and modify your dog's behaviour in everyday situations.

Creating a Harmonious Home: Our goal is to help you and your dog enjoy a more relaxed and peaceful environment where everyone feels comfortable and secure.

Living with a dog struggling with reactivity, deep-seated fears, specific phobias, or generalised anxiety can feel overwhelming, isolating, and deeply worrying.

You see their distress, you feel the tension on the lead, you limit your walks, and you might feel embarrassed or judged.

You just want your beloved companion to feel safe, calm, and able to cope with the world around them.

Taking the first step is often the hardest. If you're tired of walking on eggshells around your dog's resources and dream of a more relaxed relationship, we're here to guide you.
