Excessive Barking, Leash Reactivity, Aggression, Jumping, Mouthiness, House Soiling, Destruction, Separation Anxiety, Stranger Danger & Resource Guarding are all issues that are difficult for dogs, pet parents and families. Understanding your dog's unique needs, previous learning and experiences, breed traits, environment and personality are all considered as well as your own needs, abilities, concerns and goals.
You aren't alone if you feel like you have done everything but still can't figure out why you are having "problems" with your dog. Food is a great motivator, but some behaviors can't be "fixed" with treat training alone and punishment often compounds the issues. It's important to understand what your dog is telling you before you try to solve what you (and everyone else) thinks are her behavior issues. There is no one size fits all approach.
A relationship based dog training approach will help you develop a mutually beneficial relationship with your dog. Understanding what is expected from each family member (including your dog) will set you all up for success, peace and happiness. By learning who your dog is, what your dog needs, what external factors are at play, and how your dog fits into your family and lifestyle, you can implement a realistic training plan right away.
